Just so you know before you watch me; take in consideration that I don't draw much, and on some of these websites I look very inactive as I don't post a whole lot of personal messages other then art; though I DO come on everyday. I DO however will reply to most comments, or read them; if I don't reply that meant I either had nothing to say/or ran out of things to say. ( it could also mean that anxiety got the best of me that time ) I will also post newer pictures here that I have made here so people can see them, or comment on them however.
i've always thought your style is super neattt. majonzi's snaggletooth and design and everything is yes. do you still do any traditional work like the stuff you posted like 5-6 years ago? your art is badass either way but i haven't seen any traditional things lately.
Sadly no as in school I practically drew out of boredem, but since school ended I sorta lost interest in traditional as I got very obsessed with laptops\computers.
Even for a while though I lost interest in digital as it never looked the same, or I can never make it look nice. However, recently I started to not let perfectionism get me, and that is why I've picked up on activity in recent times.
I still do traditional from time to time when I have no other way of drawing, but I have no way of uploading it on the internet other then maybe taking crappy phone photos. ( I have no scanner ) Irl I don't take it as seriously as I used too as I now draw several sketches in one picture, and all of it is mostly concepts I come up with out of the blue.
kind off topic though, but whats weird with me is that unlike people in art who think they've improved; I think I've improved yet I sometimes think I have lost things in the process. Like in childhood I could draw several scenes, situations, and make up things I can draw on the fly. Yet when I got older in high school, I lost that ability as I now started to be concerned about what the drawing looks like which made me draw things repetitively several times as I was never satisfied with what I had made. ( which I still kinda do tbh ) Yet at the same time though as my ability to make unique scenes died off; I improved greatly with quality, and content as what I drew became less ridiculous as i started to come up with whole personalities, whole stories, and even characters that i drew over a hundred times in the artwork.
Which is why when my own mom says " your stuff isn't as creative as it used to be. " Which I sadly somewhat agree with, but also heavily disagree with at the same time as I feel like it went from just silly drawings to something with meaning to me.
It's all a matter of perception with artwork! Continuing to do that traditional work will give you a lot of practice, and it's necessary for artists to continue practicing in order to improve. i envy that ability to get past the perfectionism though; i get way too frustrated when i draw and tend to give up too easily. The thing that matters most is how you feel about it.
When I focused more on digital artwork, my ability to make traditional stuff went way downhill. You need to use totally different techniques with the two and can never really achieve the same feeling in digital artwork (which isn't a bad thing; it's just different). it's good to practice both as much as possible.
Yeah, it did that with me with traditional art, but at the same time when I started with digital I had the same problem with sucking at it for a while.
Right now though I still think I can make pictures again with traditional, but I don't; still keeping to drawing tons of concept sketches.
Yeah perfectionism sucks, but I finally think I am starting to overcome it; which kind words people have said about it over the years have helped. For a while though drama blogs on tumblr relating to art, or art communities however almost made want to hide them though; as I was afraid I would end on one really shitty one. I can't believe I used to like those till I found 2 really really shitty ones with one that liked to sick it's followers on people, and the other one was filled with quite possibly most aggressive mods i have seen on any website. ( those blogs being the furryscumbags blog with the other being deviantartwhy )
In fact I think those blogs, and a couple of other crappy popular blogs are kinda the reason why idgaf about what people like, or draw anymore as they seemed to like to target the least liked fandoms tumblr dispises like sonic, mlp, fnaf, and etc.
