Some thoughts on my art
5 years ago
Thoughts, rants, and ideas
Lately I've been having some mixed feelings in regards to what I want to do with my art.
I've always thought of doing narratives whenever I draw someone. I want them not to feel like people, i want them to BE characters. Something single images can't express.
I've also been thinking about what kind of artsyle I've been putting out versus what comes naturally. I love doing cross hatching and heavy inks. One side of me has sort of forced myself into doing colors because I never worked with them until I got a tablet. So I always saw mastering color theory as something I NEED to do and something I need to keep. My artstyle has always, up until i got my tablet, revolved around not having colors to highlight or shadow my characters and environments. But since I got into colors my art hasn't felt cohesive. I now do lineart and shapes with the forehand that color will be the most important part and I don't know if this is conflicting with my personality as an artist.
My artistic identity is something I've been at war with for some time. With this, Im saying that I might take a short break and try to look within myself. My artstyle will inevitably change do to this and im sorta scared. I'm glad yall have stook around so far though
Stay safe ya'll!
