sorry i’m physically incapable of embarking upon a (relatively large) artistic endeavor without taking huge amounts of PROGRESS PICS so here have these i guess
prove them wrong.
The reason I hate celery in one sentence.
when I tell you I cried--
me rn
(and requests are open, if you enjoy my work!)
(silence anon) I came up with it myself. Sorry if it's ambiguous. Alternatively could you do "and isolation's the price you'll pay"? Thank you!
of course! that’s a pretty cool quote dude. since i’m a bit busy atm i won’t be doing it now, but you can probably expect it up by tonight?
i’ll try doing both if i have time!
i screwed up the first two lines and then decided to do it purposefully for the next four heck yeah !! thanks @theshitpostcalligrapher for motivating me to write one more thing even though i’d already put away my calligraphy stuff for today
req’d by @cronusamporaofficial
me
things i did that forced me to be a better artist:
used a reference for everything
thinner line art (you think thats thin? go thinner….)
sketch, then do a cleaner sketch, THEN start finalizing
THUMBNAILS
color research, picking a set palette or light/dark for each work
you like that pose? redo it one more time
USE A DAMN REFERENCE
do not rely on stylization as an excuse for anatomy
draw the goddamn background you coward
just draw the hand- a bad hand is better than a hidden hand
the rule of thirds WORKS
take a considerable break between sketch and lines/paint
know that art takes longer as you get better at it
draw the seams on clothes
stop aiming for accuracy and focus on fluidity and motion, accuracy will come with practice of those two concepts
just…do the chiaroscuro. just DO IT. no excuses it always works
stop making excuses, make yourself an art schedule/set weekly(or daily) art goals and just DO IT.
oh boy oh boy oh boy look at me posting for the first time in forever ~ in other news, let’s both make a pact, right here, right now, to ignore the “”””wolf”””” in the corner of the page. cool? cool.
