#I don't care about human faces aka the furry artist disease

[canisalbus]

Your work is incredible and inspires me to create more!

What is your least favorite animal to draw? Or, what aspect of drawing have you struggled with? Thanks!

Thank you!

Least favorite... this is a cop-out but I think it'd have to be people. I feel like over the years I've slowly reached the point where humanoid anatomy isn't that much of a hassle to deal with anymore, but as soon as it comes to human faces, I just lose all interest, I'm sorry. I admire artists who excel at depicting humans but I just haven't found an enjoyable way to draw them.

For actual animals, I'd say horses. I've mentioned this before but they're just not for me.

I think my biggest enemy continues to be backgrounds and scenery. I've never managed to get the hang of them (and never will if I keep on avoiding drawing them). I try to tell myself that I used to struggle the same way with hands, perspective, poses, clothing and fabric folds and eventually regular practice made those easier, so why backgrounds would be that much more insurmountable.

I also don't enjoy realistic shading that much and usually try to weasel my way out of having to do it. I think my style might've developed into it's flat and lineart-heavy form as a result of shading evasion, at least in part, and I'm just wishing and hoping that my lines are strong enough to pick up some of the slack and convey form and volume even in the absence of true rendering.
