Da' Goal

Wed Jan 14, 2009, 10:41 AM
  • Listening to: Build God, Then We'll Talk
  • Reading: Blood Sucking Fiends
I've been trying to challenge myself since I've started drawing again-- challenge and inspiration go hand in hand, after all. It's only when I get bored that I wander away from practicing. Getting frustrated just makes me swear at the computer until I get past the road block and finish the stupid thing. XD

The goals for my drawings currently are!

+ Closer shots with some kind of movement, composition or interest/story to them. Unless it's a character sheet, none of this 'single person drowning in a sea of white space' stuff that I love so much normally.

+ A focused color pallet, with maybe five or six shades max. We're working on harmonious effects and not crazy wtf shading until I can work a piece together successfully.

+ Glaring white space, I'd like you to meet my nice friend called 'backgrounds.' It'll take baby steps to get there, but some since of setting and proportion would be nice.

And most importantly:

DRAW EVERY DAY.

EVERY EVERY EVERY DAY.

Even if it's just a ten minute sketch of my foot. That will make me one 'ten minute foot sketch' closer to getting better.





I still have some of my old drawings from 2-3 years ago saved on the computer, so I think my next project should be to re-draw those. It'll probably rain Teen Titans characters for a while around here, but it's all for the sake of progress.. and not my horrible fangirlish love of TT. Totally.
