Good. I've been painting and drawing my whole life, was raised by an artist mother who encouraged us to always be doing art. Once I hit high school, I got into the advanced class, where we worked on our own. It was pretty cool. We could do pretty much anything we wanted, as long as we brought in the materials. I wanted to do oil, because I had a full set thanks to my mom, but the school said no, water based only.

I always loved the week portfolios would be on the wall, and the try hard's stuff was up. This one girl, who thought she was the most talented artist ever, who'd sneer at the stuff we were working on, put up sheets of papers with (not kidding) clowns and balloons and kittens on them. Needless to say, she didn't get a scholarship, or even into any art programs.

I had a pretty generic art style when I was 15. I had many problems with sparkles and had no understanding of anatomy due to animus. Now that I'm a senior I can look back and be proud I have dipped my toes into more realistic art styles and have vastly improved because of it. I'm depressed though because I draw far less then I did back then. When I was 17 I didn't even draw one drawing for 9 months.

You were probably proud because it was the best thing you've done, which is what you should be proud of.

I sunk many hours into environment design, completely ignoring people in what I created. I drew from life, but very rarely, and usually only when I was in a foul or anxious mood.

When I came to /ic/ it was good, because before that I had no grasp of how to find information that would lead me towards mastery, and I never received any comments that condemned my work. I was so glad that people on this website were honest about their instinctive feelings towards my work.

I started again from scratch; my environment studies are becoming more visually exciting, and I'm developing my understanding of the human form. I don't feel as pained to approach paper and create something as I used to. From here I've gathered several more empirical influences, made an Instagram and filled 2 sketchbooks with daily drawings

I got really good at drawing grotesque and autistic cartoons because when I was in high school channels like OneyNG and Psychicpebbles were popular and still uploaded so that kind of gave me a love for pure retardation and I would just slam out like 15 of them on a piece of paper in under 20 minutes.
I also got super into Tolkien around that time so the first time I got super into drawing realistically and from imagination was shit out of LOTR, I moved into more pen and ink type stuff.


I've since moved on to music as my primary passion, but the one thing that can make it difficult is that it requires total concentration and all other background things need to be away, which makes it more difficult to do for hours and hours and hours consecutively unless its a brand new project. As for drawing I love nothing more than to do it while chilling out and watching a movie or something, if there's background noise I'm still content to do it for hours on days off.

this is circa 16 yrs. It is a comic cover for a concept I had called "the Gap" It was about a hobo in the woods one night that sees a gigantic orb. For the moment after he possessed the gift of prophecy. Indian ink/ micron. I did a lot of comic shit back then. All me, no reference.

You have a lot of potential for highschool, if you keep this up you'll be able to get in a studio or do freelance fantasy illustration in no time.

Your major problem is that your values are WAYYY too contrasty. an overwhelming amount of black to light with no mid tones. paint some mid tones in that sucker!! there's also some anatomy issues, but I'd need to see some reference in order to fix it. Here's a quick paint over I did. hope it helps... Take it or leave it, I'm just some hack on 4Chan. lol

Better than I am now desu

I quit doing art freshmen year of high school after being pretty decent (one of the best in the school), and started again a few months ago and I'm only just now getting back to where I was.

All that time I wasted shitposting and gaymen I coulda been getting better.
