I’ve been an Art Director and I’m now CEO of a globally recognised art studio. And not a day goes by I don’t feel this way.
Don’t let these feelings win.
If you ever feel this way you can break the cycle by supporting another artist. Give feedback, share tools and tips, redline. This helps compound your own knowledge or even holds up a mirror to your strengths and weaknesses with greater fidelity.
One of the best experiences for me was hiring a junior concept artist even though we were not looking for one. We were only hiring autonomous seniors. I was in a bit of a rut like this with my personal work but helping her helped me.
It’s also okay to explore new styles and not finish anything, but it shouldn’t be because you weren’t immediately amazing at it and you were comparing to others. We’re all running our own race, nobody is in front of you 👍
