I think it definitely applies to fanart. I also think you're probably embodying this; there's a good chance that your art is just fine, but you're also comparing yourself to the best artists in your fandom and falling short. (Which is what the two cakes thing was about where fic was concerned, too.)

And given the fairly terrible fic I have occasionally received in exchanges (not often, but sometimes), if an exchange allows art, I figure there's going to be a very wide range of artwork involved, too.

The risk of getting something that is just not very good is something that exchange participants really do have to accept. So is the risk of getting "thank you for drawing this" as a response because your recipient hated what you did.

Maybe try doing fests or bingo cards or something where you're not creating for someone, as a way to ease into it?
