Underappreciated

I haven't been able to sleep lately for the past few weeks. I've been feeling unmotivated these days. I apologize that I haven't updated either.

I'm just frustrated again! I've joined a few groups on deviantART community to mainly share my work and make new friends. One of the groups I joined had denied EVERY SINGLE work I submitted. I'm not going to list the name. It seems as the group admins only care about the more well-known artists and less chance for the rest. I see artwork that are no better than mine and they got accepted in the gallery. I would also like to add that one of their mods said to me they accept painting only from scratch. The gallery contains other people's art that had used references. What's with that? I feel underappreciated and it's making me feel miserable. Not trying to be rude or anything, but I believe that every artist have their own style and that's what makes them unique.

More importantly, I'm glad that some of you out there are showing me support. I love you guys.

UPDATE: Waking up with sore eyes, that thought is still in my head. When I logged in, I saw some of the responses from some of you. Thanks for taking the time to read my problem and sharing me your thoughts too. It means a lot to me. I plan to leave the group soon since it's kinda pointless if I can't share my work there. Because of this issue, I'm going to take a break from art for a while. I hope you understand. Don't worry, I will be back with some new works soon; just don't know when. Art will always be with me. It's my passion.
