I've been aiming to learn art for a while but I've only had my phone and it's pretty painful to do art on my tiny little screen so I've never taken it seriously. But I've been wanting to get better at it and I'm getting an iPad soon so I was wondering... what was the hardest part about learning art when you first started or now? And what's the best part of it from before or now? And I'm not entirely sure if this is where I should put this in the forums, if it's not feel free to move it somewhere else ^^"

Something that always haunts me is dynamic poses. I can draw something from the side/profile, but when it comes to dynamic poses or action poses I struggle a lot. There are of course characters I can do with ease, but when it comes to drawing something new, those poses always get me. I'd say the best thing about drawing is seeing my progress. More often than not I absolutely hate what it is that I'm drawing, but later come back to see how much progress I've made and how much better it looks compared to older things I've drawn. There are of course pieces I've done that I believe there is no way I can surpass, but that's besides the point.

I always had a super hard time with lineart!! I'd do a sketch I'd like, and then fall flat on my face when it came time to do the cleaner lines haha. I ended up deciding it was a lot more enjoyable for me to just do the sketch and clean it up a bit later. That's just from my personal experience though. My favourite parts would have to be shading and rendering!! Super relaxing, and it's satisfying to see it all come together at the end!!

At first, it was very hard to learn how to do anatomy. With my semi-realistic art style, anatomy was very important to learn properly, especially for dinosaurs, since if that anatomy was just a bit off, it would ruin the whole drawing. I'm not too sure about anime/cartoony styles though. I've never really drawn in that style before. It was all just attempts at it, which failed horribly. My absolute favorite part about drawing is details and shading. With dinosaurs on traditional, it's incredibly simple and relaxing to add the scales, and the shading is just so satisfying. Digital art is my worst nightmare. I plan to learn it soon. When I'm better at traditional that is. ^^ Edited at July 10, 2024 01:14 PM by Matunda
