Don’t Ask Artist’s This!

So in case you didn’t know, I love to draw! I’m like that shy person in the back of the class that listens but then sometimes will zone out and draw on their paper. Yep, i’m an introvert! Some people may just know me as “The Art Kid”. Which I really don’t care being called that, I know some people might not like that though. But since people know I like art the most common question I get is, “You like art? Can you draw me?” And when people ask me that I respond with with same thing, “I would but i’m not really good at realistic drawings and don’t want to offend anyone.” and half of the time they respond with, “Oh, that’s ok………you can draw me in your style!” JVBKDHIUTHBU LIKE AAUHHHUH WHAT!? WHY!? I’M TRYING TO BE NICE HERE JUST-EHHHH!! When I say I don’t want to offend anyone I really don’t want to but at the same time it’s just a nice and friendly way to say no! Sorry but i’m not wasting my time for something I know for a fact your going to throw away! But the real question is, why is this a common question people ask so oftenly? Seriously, why? Do people think we are magicians? Do they think we’re saying, “Ahhh! Step right up ladies and gents come over to my desk where I personally can draw draw you! And guess what after you sign up you can just walk away and expect me to remember your face! So come now during class!” I also say no because usually people ask me the DURING class. I used to actually say yes when people would ask me to draw them but after I would say yes they would thank me then walk off…It’s common sense if you want someone to draw YOU then they would have to look at you and keep looking at you until their done! So you don’t just WALK OFF! Ah this feels nice to get off my chest. Also sometime it’s people I don’t even know and I just think to myself, “W-what? How do you know my name? And why do you think I would draw you? Do I smell lucky charms?” So moral of the blog, don’t ask people to draw you. Well, I enjoyed writing and hope you enjoyed reading! Student signing out! <3
