Every artists wanted their artworks to be appreciated and touch lives

I started to draw when i was still a cub ( Im a lion by the way ) lol, I didn't know why I was in love with art this much. Though i was still a kinder student when i started to embrace art back then, I was always been on the special mentions list,

why?

Because everytime we had our discussion, all i did was drawing at the back part of my notebooks, I even used my classmates' papers as my sketchpad too thats why my teachers got annoyed ( at least I got noticed 😂 ) I dont know why, but everytime I draw i can get a satisfaction thats very rare to obtain, the happiness, and the way i can express the things inside me.

Then I became a teenager, things still remains up to now. It sounded immature, but thats me. Thats what i love to do and nothing can stop me from doing so 😂

I've been participating into art contests as a school representative or just by individual - sometimes I win, sometimes I lose, but thats not I wanted in the first place though. I wasn't after the rewards or being the winner or whatsoever, what matters to me is the experience and the happiness it brings everytime I share my artwork to others.

so I draw, and draw and draw!

Even though there are still few that appreciated my works, It still gave me hope that someday these artworks could change lives.

Until a friend introduced me to steemit..

I started to post my old works in this platform and gladly I got noticed! And i thought about...

They even loved my old works how much more if its really for steemit

So that made me eager to make more artworks. Then I started making artworks intended for steemit and posted it here, added some articles and stories behind the art and made the post as informative as it could be.

I made some drawing tutorials that might help a lot of users, i also included process images and how it is being done in every drawing post have made.

I even got noticed by the Big guys in steemit like mr @surpassinggoogle, @sndbox, @curie and a lot more. But regardless to the rewards, the most important things are that I got appreciated and be able to touch lives.

As i continued my journey, I've met a lot of users that has the same forte wt mine. Some were still new like me and some were already well-off and famous. Nevertheless, I was happy to know that art world is hitting pots here and it plays a big role in sharing information and awareness in many things.

A lot of drawings were posted and got rewarded and...

I thought that it would be just "Drawing and posting it"

But a good wind blew something good to me lol, I became a @curie curator and decided to be prioritizing art related posts. So in that sense, I can evaluate an artwork better since im also an artist.

Everything went well and I was able to reward those artists who did their job best. I also gained a lot information on how to improve a post particularly in my artworks since I know the guidelines of a quality post.

Being an artist is okay but being a steemian artist is challenging. I mean not all of your atworks would click in steemit and everything you post in the internet is seen worldwide thats why you need to have a deep brainstorming on what art would you make and post.

But whats great in posting here are the comments coming from great people. Whether you're already good or still learning you are going to receive amazing feedbacks that would motivate snd inspire you in doing more of it. There were also a lot of artists that gave their feedbacks on my posts which was very overwhelming that what made me stay here. And because of Steemit, I was able to improve my skills.

As an artist, i would continue sharing my art to the world and be able to touch lives
