#Art goals

[camelidae]

Not exactly a new year’s resolution, but I desperately want to be able to draw or paint those ripply, fluffy magnificent manes that fancy horses have. Tried it in watercolor before and I’ve tried it here in colored pencil, but I haven’t figured it out yet. I like this guy, but the mane magic is just not there. I think it involves a level of pre-planning and restraint that I struggle with. But I will keep trying. I will, I must. I must learn the secrets of the Fabio mane.

☁️ 2024 Artist Resolutions ☁️

Happy New Year, everyone! 🌻

Just sharing my annual artist resolutions (this is my 3rd year doing this, I think?):

colors & palettes: I would like to try and experiment more with color, including probably (re-)teaching myself color theory (and actually trying to understand it this time lol), working with more mindful color choices like limited palettes and overall trying to use color to make more visually interesting pieces.

video content: I actually really like the process filming and editing little progress/behind-the-scenes videos, but I didn't do much of that at all this year. I'd honestly like to go back to doing some of that again! Also I had a brief stint of streaming art on Twitch around this time a year ago and haven't gone back to it...still on the fence but I may revisit that as well this year.

comics: I've always enjoyed drawing silly little daily life comics and would like to continue with that, but 2023 made me realize how much I also enjoy creating more long-form webtoon and comic book-like pieces as well! I definitely want to explore and expand more upon that in 2024~

composition: I've been very lazy about composition! Going back to wanting to use color to create more visually interesting pieces, I'd also like to focus more on composition to do the same as well.

(soft) freelance: I used to have an online shop that I shut down almost 3 years ago now...I don't know what I feel brave enough to tackle this year in terms of being an independent artist outside of my day job; whether that's commissions, ko-fi/patreon, product design for a shop reopening or tabling at conventions, but I hope I'll figure it out and get over my hesitations about it...soon.

sketching & journaling: I really super-mega-absolutely neglected sketching and journaling for the entirety of 2023 which TRULY HURTS MY JOURNAL-LOVING HEART. I want to try some things to find a new system of sketch-journaling that fits my time and lifestyle better these days so I can incorporate that back into my life.

My previous artist resolutions from 2023 and 2022~

I think I only really got to two goals from my 2023 list; drawing more backgrounds and entering my 'villain era' by drawing more selfishly (though I'll be honest: I didn't expect that to manifest the way it did when I had written it out, but yeah okay, smutty art it is I suppose lmaooo)

We don't talk about 2022 lol.

Hope everyone is having a great start to the new year~ Relax! Rest! Recharge! And may we achieve all (or at least most of) our goals we're hoping to in 2024 💗

DRAWING CHALLENGE I MADE FOR MYSELF

Day 1 of drawing Kaedehara Kazuha

Objectives:

1. Be able to draw him from memory

2. Be satisfied with the drawing

3. Draw a good one to set as a pfp

First day😭. Uhm I used a reference and it still sucks

Ryoko kui has some of the best character design skills I’ve ever seen. Even within the different races everyone is so varied and unique and each have something interesting about them that makes them stand out, whether it be the body type, or subtle differences in the shape of the ears, or hair style, or jewelry and clothing style. That’s what I hope to be as an artist tbh. I wanna meet her so bad

2024 art (and non-art) bingo template!

Made a template for art bingo for 2024 How it works: write your goals in the cells. When you complete the goal, cross out the cell. When a vertical, horizontal or diagonal row is completely crossed out, treat yourself! Feel free to use this template for your goals! More versions:

like this:

I swear one day I will have this skill.... One day.....

[sbcwolfie]

Update on this WIP‼️ I’m slowly but surely getting through it💜 I’m getting my art teacher to give me constant critique because it’s much needed when working on this piece. I’m currently challenging myself with semi-realism because that’s my art goal, so yeah✨

[skulldog]

Putting one of these together, fun to keep some ideas I've been wanting to do in a little game, so I can look at it when I don't know what to work on. Anything on here spark you and you want to see me complete next year, share! :0
