Thoughts On Art
13 years ago
So, my favorite style of art is toony art. Without a doubt. The very first picture I posted under my own account was during my attempts at trying different toony styles. Since then, I've seemed to stray from that style all together.
Thinking about it now, I am considering adding more obviously toony aspects to the things I draw. Bigger feet, more playful and exaggerated expressions, etc. I still am practicing muzzles, adding fur without becoming too fuzzy. I also need to work on shading and coloring, adding backgrounds and having characters interact with their environment and each other.
What do you guys think?

Yeah. For me, most things are fun to draw. I just need to single in on a firm style of my own so that things are more obviously drawn by me X3 lol

"I agree with Rath. You get better by doing what feels comfortable to you, even as your style changes overtime. I personally enjoy your art, and wish there was more of it."

Yeah, I feel like I've been jumping from style to style. I know it's only been a month, but still. I want something that is more unique to me X3.

yeah, my main style is toony, and people keep telling it's like a mix between Disney and Dreamworks with my own twist to it

Well, you need to start doing more toons again lol. Though, it is nice exploring different styles :3
