Any opinions on sketches?
5 years ago
I've been sketching since kindergarten. It's a fun way to pass hours, allowing the mind to focus on pictures like no other time. Coloring on the other hand is a tedious stressful affair; blocking in shapes, cleaning up messy lines, checking every square centimeter for spots... I don't think I've painted more than once since that big Kulve YCH.
Now that I'm posting my work online I have to admit, some days it gets pretty discouraging to look at my gallery or art folders only to see an ocean of gray with poorly scratched lines making weak shapes. I feel like I lack the attention, discipline and commitment of pretty much any other artist on this site, who are able to sit down and work on making colorful paintings and illustrations.
I know I shouldn't compare myself to others. I know I shouldn't treat myself as able and at 100%. Call it perfectionism, self-doubt, vanity, whatever you want; but I would like to know how you all feel about the quality of my art? Is it okay to see a gray square on your feed once every few weeks?

It’s an oddly satisfying, simplistic feeling from me. A lot of sketches also pull off the softer features and details (however defined or vague they can be) in an art piece than even a properly colored, shaded, or painted picture can portray.
Still, I like seeing your art; it’s a very cute, and reliably, anatomically appealing style.
I don't think I've ever heard my style called cute before ;v; - thanks!
Even if they seem to be quick doodles for you. for me they are uberly awesome! Makes me wish i had that same skill level ;W;!
dont be afraid to keep posting em im sure many of us love any kind of content you post!!
And my personal opinion your sketches are super great quality wise aswell!
Thanks for the compliments, I hope you'll practice and reach a level you're happy with too!
