RE: The art I carry inside: Life is a WIP (Work in progress)
At first I was super jealous of your art...then I read how long it took you...lol... Maybe I could draw like that if I took that kind of time. LOL.
Drawing takes a lot of time and patience...but there's little point in drawing "life-like" things. Might as well just get a camera. The artist is in the variations of reality. Learning techniques, including ones to draw more realistic drawings, is important, but you have to find the art inside yourself. When you look at an artists work over their lifetime, you can see that journey, trying to learn oneself.
I think for you, if you wanted to learn drawing, perhaps you need to teach yourself to not care quite as much about detail. At least not on everything. There are tricks you can learn to mimic the look of things without being so detailed.
I just get amazed by artist that create paintings/drawings that are almost picture. I understand there is not much creativity in that, but the process of observing reality is amazing. Details impress me. It's a great skill that I used to envy. But yeah, it's not me. Now I like to splash red paint everywhere and that's it.
I think that's you. Maybe you can incorporate some of that detail in the future. Make something that's deeply personal and has detail in all the right places.
I drew boobs and she had her throat cut :D
Pictures or it didn’t happen 😝 but seriously you are an amazing artist, but I totally feel you. You must be true to yourself, that is real art for me, and it always shines through. Never is it pretentious or overbearing it just flows out as it wants to.
