hello guys, I have never been comment anything on 4chan for years but now I really need some advices. I am an art student and studied in school for almost 2 years ( just half more year and the school will finished ), this is when my problem come, I can't focus on classes anymore, I want to draw so many things but the homeworks from school has filled all my time...
I feel myself have learned enough to start doing my ideas so I quit school. I want to spend the rest of this year to do my ideas and through that I will complete my own portfolio ( I want to be a cartoon or illustration artist ) but in the mean time, I feel so lonely, just staying home and draw, I miss my friends, I don't have anybody to talk with. Can you guys please give my some advices ? What should I do now ?
This painting is a work in my project, mixing medival warriors with an animal suit with their personality and give them some humor too. You can check out the rest of my project here ( not done yet, I will keep updating through time ): http://gipsob1234.deviantart.com/gallery/62940153/For-Honor-project
p/s: Sorry for my clumsy English, It not my language.

Some people might be really mean in this thread but I'll be honest since you seem pure of heart and not a shitposter
I like your art. I think it's passable. Just keep doing what you love my dude
Also I'll be your friend. Unless you are shitposting and I'm a fool

You appear to be doing quite well, so keep drawing and practicing as you have been. Your friends probably miss you too so you should visit them once in a while, man.

I would say just don't fall for the 16 hour a day meme, understand what you need to work on and work on it in increments, don't try to force to much studying at once or you will feel frustrated.
Keep structure to your day and have another hobby, even if it's gaming, just to unwind and to take your mind off drawing for a while. Do you need to work to support yourself or living with your folks?

This guy is right, make sure you see your friends, friends and family are imperative to mental well being even for the most introverted person. If you are living away from home, call your friends on skype often and try to make new friends with same interests as you, life drawing classes are a good place to meet other aspiring artists.
Also I like your work I think you have potential, keep at it.
its called work/life balance. hang out with your mates after school, or go to a social event like life drawing class
Thank you guys, I really appreciate your help I will take your advices and go out more :D, maybe do some urban sketchs with friends.
