Resources
7 years ago
As a self-taught artist, there are a couple resources I wish I could find to help me practice and improve
1) How to PICK colors! A palette generator is fine but honestly it feels like a guessing game
2) What image size to draw at/pen size to match?
3) How DO you draw backgrounds and frame your picture?
If anyone has any suggestions I'd love to hear them

#1: I actually keep a big-ass folder full of pictures I've saved with colors that I like. Anything from nature photographs to illustrated scenes to screenshots of color palettes.

That's a good idea, but I feel like I also struggle with the application of colors too. Well, something I'll work on :)

I'm also self thought, but I mostly eyeball everything. I imagine people who knows their stuff hates my art lol.

I guess it depends on the person and what I don't know lol. I don't even know what color theory even is.

We could always share critiques if you want to hit me up on Telegram or something )

I'm only really on Discord. Also, it depends since I'm fighting art block so I'm not in a position to properly absorb feedback lol. Though it is helpful when I can take it.
