Experimentation Ahoy!
Posted a year agoI've been thinking, lately, which is very dangerous because it usually results in lofty ambitions that never get resolved...
But anyways!
I've decided that I want to try experimenting a little bit more actively with my art style. Assuming I actually get anything done, you'll probably start seeing a few different studies and style tests, though whether any of them will stick is yet to be seen. Regardless, my style has always been pretty fluid, so unless I get hit in the head with a large rock I'll probably still have my wonky inconsistent vibe, haha.

This is probably very silly.
Posted a year agoJust wanted to issue a formal apology for the fact that I've been posting pretty much nothing but refsheets :P
I've been trying to get my ducks in a row for my OC ideas(and also I just really like drawing new character designs, whoops...) but man cannot live on refsheets alone so I'm gonna be trying to draw more, yknow, fun art in the next month.
Wish me luck!!!

Just a quick update...
Posted a year agoI'm no longer having a crisis about my art style btw! I'm in a much nicer place now with my art, haha.
Having a great time :)

I'LL SLEEP WHEN I FIGURE OUT WHAT MY ART STYLE LOOKS LIKE
Posted 5 years agoI know this isn't Twitter and also no one follows me on here, but I'm posting this anyway because I feel like it's kind of... pertinent. So, consider it a PSA of sorts; particularly when I start taking commissions.
In a phrase, I find myself constantly living through a crisis of aesthetic.
I simply have no idea what I like. Or rather, I like so many things that I absolutely cannot marry them together in a harmonious way. That's why I have three fursonas! I just cant contain all the different aesthetics and concepts I identify with in a singular character design, and I think that's a problem that also carries over to my art style.
I just can't be satisfied with the way my art looks. I can enjoy it, appreciate it, I like my work, I'm proud of it, but I always end up drifting. Nothing I do has any consistency because I can't decide on a singular look.
Cute and round, edgy and erratic, sharp pixellated lines or smooth antialiased ones, cell shading or paint, cartoony or realistic... It's really frustrating!!
Totally screaming into the void here, but I wonder if there's anything I can do about it...
...Hm. Probably not.
