Updates, updates, everybody cupcakes (?)
General | Posted 3 years agoGetting better, one drawing at a time!
Yes, I know that the title doesn't rhyme but it doesn't matter :D
I am still riding that dubious wave of "yay I don't hate drawing anymore" enthusiasm, and reaping the results of always having at least one sketch being developed into something (whatever that something might be), instead of just staring at the empty page hoping for a Particularly Brilliant Idea to come to me. Such ideas don't come often but you can practice your skills in the meantime. No need to wait and no need for anything to be perfect, drawing is the kind of thing that you get better at by simply doing it.
And so, I want to continue doing this and drawing cute animals shaped like humans (and go "hehe, look at me, am a humie, taxes!") and making them wear skimpy outfits and mash their [CENSORED] together until positive reinforcement comes pouring from the heavens.
I want to keep observing talented artists and drawing my drawings and coloring with my colors and hopefully something good will come out of it. Isn't that what we're all here for? Looking at cool art and having fun creating our own?
I don't have much else to say, so I'll go eat pizza and sketch a lil something.

General | Posted 3 years agoThanks to some uh... shenanigans* that were out of my control, I have been without internet service for around five days. But also that means I have some stuff to upload! Curse my boredom, or bless it, rather, for it meant more sketching and drawing and generally, more time to accumulate a few submissions I want to be uploading soon (hopefully not all at once).
What are my goals now? Well, first I would like to get two things going: lineart and design. As I keep walking down this current art road, I think that it would be nice to try and develop a consistent lineart style that's more or less useful for what I am going for, no more squigglies, no more weird thickness, more of a consistent weight that does not distract from the piece itself. The other thing is design, which as the eternal plight of the amateur artist goes, it consists of developing a specific style that's not all over the place. Both of them are works in progress and will continue to be so for the foreseeable future. Hopefully the more I practice and upload the more I will advance in both fronts, so I'd like to go back in a few months and compare, perhaps even in a year. That'd be nice
I keep enjoying myself and I keep trying to learn, observe and practice so that soon enough I can bring some quality up and uh, well basically, become a better artist and person. With your support and that of my beloved friends, I shall make it so.
*shenanigans may or may not have included some payment issue. Nothing that some money and prodding/messaging/emailing towards the company cannot fix.

Wow
General | Posted 3 years agoI'm in a situation that I couldn't have prevented.
I feel... motivated. I feel, inspired even.
It doesn't feel like I'm fighting against my tablet or computer anymore, and while I am aware that I have yet so much to learn, it doesn't feel like a frustrating chore. It feels fun! I had forgotten how fun it was to draw!
I look at tutorials, I look at other people's art now. I look at my empty canvas and I think, what will be today?
This had never happened before.
I am someone who would take long hiatuses in between spurts of production, with every creative endeavor I have gotten myself into. But now I feel like I don't want to stop. I don't want to stop. I want to keep drawing. I want to experiment with different species and styles, I want to learn how to color better, how to draw better anatomy, I want to learn to make NSFW stuff, I want to do it.
Wanting to do things has always been a challenge for me, in my life in general, not just at art.
But for the first time in forever, I want to make things and I want to make art and it makes me happy to think about it.
I want to learn, I want to evolve, I want to search for my style, for my aesthetic.
Eventually I would like to venture into commissions, of course, but I must learn first to walk and then to run and eventually, to fly.
And I want to do it.
Wow.
