Art is scary. So, don't create for immediate success.
The best way to get over the fear of art is to doodle. A lot. I mean, A LOT! Doodle on everything. Sketchbooks, napkins, receipts, scrap paper, everything. Doodling will get rid of the "stiff wrist" that usually accompanies beginners. Don't doodle to be perfect. It is meant to just be exercises. Maybe you really like one of your doodles. You can always revisit that doodle to become a full-fledged artwork.
Yes. You can draw. How well is not the issue. No one will judge you by "bad" drawings. Art is subjective. One person may think it's crap, but another person may absolutely need your work in their collection.
And don't ever get discouraged. Even though I have tons of things going on at all times, I will absolutely trade art with you now and then. Yes. You. I will trade with you. Granted, it may be a few months before I can seriously trade, but I will definitely be here!
If you are afraid of what your art may look like, or maybe you are nervous about posting it to the public. But... I am always here to check it out! Even if you have to send it to me, directly, though Private Messages, then do it! DOOOOO EEEET!!
