how to "find your art style": just draw whatever and whats the most fun for you. just do whatever. dont even worry about it dude it doesnt matter

i’ve been compared to ai a few times, so here she is :)

life hack from art school: instead of saying you cant draw something or that you dont like something about your art, just say the element “wasn’t working”

had to change a pose because it was too difficult to draw? it “didn’t work” compositionally!

feel like something is off about the background? it doesn’t suck, it’s just not working for the piece!

art is all about finding ways to convey an idea or emotion in a VERY subjective way, so thinking about it in terms of “working/not working for this piece” instead of “good/bad” is very helpful for me personally. it’s a small step you can take towards having a healthy outlook on your work!

if you dont decouple your drive to create from your desire for attention you will go insane. simple as. you will never feel satisfied b/c you will always want more and you will feel perpetually bitter that you did not get what you are “owed”

tim come back

[ID: A horizontally oriented digital painting of Tim Stoker from TMA. He is a thin Southeast Asian man with short hair, worm scars, and a hoop earring. Tim's back faces the viewer, but he turns to look behind him with a somber expression. Blood is streaked across the back of his shirt and on his chin and neck. The background is golden, and a halo radiates from his head. End ID]
