Venting I work so hard and get nothing in return...

[WelcomingPain]

I fucking work so hard at what I do and nobody fucking gives me credit. I make animations and I spend hours and hours on each one at a time. They're good quality too, but nobody fucking cares or appreciates my art. I really wanna ctb because of this. There are dumbass people who put no effort into art and they get so much fucking support. I work so so hard at what I do and nobody even cares. Nobody understands. I wish someone could just help me. I've been doing this for so long and still get absolutely nothing. Nobody even knows how hard I work. I wanna just curl up in a ball and give up. Maybe I should make art with my blood as I'm bleeding to death and people will actually appreciate it. You know, come to think of it, everyone LOVES dead people's art. I don't fucking understand. I'm going to ctb and people will finally give my art the credit it deserves. I posted a beautiful piece a few days ago and fucking nobody... NOBODY liked it:

Spoiler: Here's my art

This took me hours to make and not a single person liked it. I don't care if you think I'm pathetic for this. I deserve more, but I get nothing. I pour out all my heart and feelings into what I do, and I shouldn't expect anything in return, but this is bullshit. It's not fair. It's not fucking fair...

I stg if I ctb, everyone is gonna be like "wow, I wish she had made more art before she died"

Well tough. This is all you get, because it wasn't good enough while I was alive.

I think your art is beautiful and have always admired artistic people.

You are not pathetic... these are your feelings and they're valid.

Omg, i love it.
I love dark themed art.
How do you share your content?
Have you ever sent your work to someone who can help you promote your arts and put it put out there a bit more?
These type of gigs tend to be difficult at first, specially untill becoming more noticed but, if done right, it can really go a long way.
I had a friend in highschool that used to make beautiful draws, he painted well too.
He was also into graffiti.
I don't think he was able to make money out of it as he wanted but he took a lot of joy in doing it.
You don't imagine what i would do or give to have such a talent as you.

I post on DeviantArt (Not as much as I used to) and I upload animations on YouTube. I've done everything I can. I've collaborated with other artists, I bring attention to it through multiple social medias, I've commissioned really popular artists to try get my name and characters out there. I really am at a dead end.

I think it's beautiful.
I love how you worded 'Need' and symbolized 'Love'.
At first glance, the throat cut could be a collar.
A striking touch.

Damn, that's crazy. People are so stupid. They never seem to know how valuable a person is until they get rid of that person. It was the same for me at my old job. I worked so damn hard there. In fact, I worked so long, that I tired myself out and fainted at work. I never got any sort of worker's compensation or anything like that, and they fired me about a week later.

@WelcomingPain I'm too dense to figure out the symbolism but it's visually crisp and reminds me of something I can't remember. I like that.

I'm really glad you like it honestly. There is quite a bit of symbolism. I like to leave it up for interpretation, but a lot of it relates to my addiction and lack of love

I wouldn't kill myself over someone not liking your artwork. There has to be something more that is making you depressed.

Of course there's more. I was raped. I struggle with countless mental illnesses. I don't know what other excuses I'm supposed to have. My reasons for wanting to ctb are my own. But yeah, people not appreciating my work has always been a problem. The last time I was appreciated for my art was back in grade 2, where I won some play-dough after coming 2nd in an art competition. Been creating art ever since. Haven't experienced any real appreciation though.
