love your art style! how did you refine your style over time? -- wisteriagoesvroom on main
Omg my first ask 🤭. First of all tysm omg omg omg!!!! So I’m first and foremost a traditional artist im in school studying painting so I think most of my style now is the most directly influenced by the realistic graphite portraits I did in highschool and my painting journey.
I actually realized last night that the way I draw digitally is very similar to the way I paint and how I approach color and form and the way that I lay color down, I don’t blend a lot or at least I don’t prefer to, instead I use a wider range of colors that when placed next to eachother create a somewhat smooth transition. I also really love painting with a pallete knife instead of a brush which is a lot more graphic and serves me well digitally
Honestly this ask totally blew me away bc when I look at my digital work I do not at all see a consistent style 😭, I’ve been trying so hard to stylize the way I depict Oscar and Lando cuz it feels like the thing to do, but I think my most recent drawing turned out as well as it did because i stuck with more realistic rendering in a painterly kind of way. I’ve always envied artists who can turn people into a stylized graphic novel esque version of themselves and obviously that takes time and practice which I obviously know as a traditional artist but for some reason I’m not as patient with the digital medium haha. Hopefully I’ll have more time this summer to kind of teach myself and develop a new way of drawing!
Again thank you so much for the ask and the compliment it made my day fr
Also if anyone is curious abt my trad art maybe I’ll start a side blog for it haha, but you can also find me @artbyrubyjane on insta it’s my public art acc!
