To all artist who feel discouraged

This is my first time writing a news article so forgive me if I mess the format up. I just wanted to write this on behalf of all the artist who are now just beginning their journey into the art world or have low confidence about their art.

   I just wanted to let you know that just because you are not up to a certain level yet don't think that you do not have the potential to become great one day because you do. It may take longer than you may like, but believe me as long as you keep trying you will make it! Don't let some one who thinks they are better than you just because you don't draw very well (yet) get you down. Believe me I've had my share of people tell me that I can't draw good because I draw cartoons or whatnot. But you know what I have to say to myself that I am a winner and I can do this. I've been drawing for 8 years and it hasn't gotten any easier for me. So to all of you beginning artist who feel that you don't have a place on D.A. please don't give up! keep on doing the best you can because they're people in the world that believe that no matter who you are, no matter what you do you can always shine as long as you give 100%!  
  also to all the "popular" or semi "popular" artist here. If someone who is not as good at you in art ask you for help please help them. If we want the artist that are just beginning here to keep coming back and improve sometimes we should help out. It benefits you and the other person because  you never know one day that person that you helped may mention you as one of the reasons why they improved.So just think about that.
