Artist's Comments

I have a feeling my art's going in a decline. Maybe it's just from looking around me and seeing so many wonderfully talented people, and then I look at my own things and I feel like.. I don't know. Like something's holding me back.

I'll find the sucker wall and break it. :P

So, to take a break from "Hay 8D Im a character just standing hurr", I doodled up a headshot of an android-ish character. You can call him Seb, or Sebastian. I tried to do some dynamic lighting.. inspired by =snoppy, who likes to do a lot of dynamic shading in her work, so yeah. uu; She's talented. Go visit her.

That is all. Lack of postage due to work that takes higher priority. :hug:

Again, enjoy~ :heart:

I don't know, but something about this one makes me like it a lot(eye shots are hypnotic @.@) It looks a bit like a screen shot, and it has a pretty nice glow and dark contrast to it. :3

Fine! I'll suck up too! :P

But seriously, you know it is true. There are lots of people out there who adore your work. And then there's some people who are inspired by your amazing skills to keep trying and improving their own (take me for example. :P ).

This piece took me by surprise really. And its because it appears simple, but really isn't. Even if you, as the artist, feel it is. There are several elements to this piece, the lighting, the bar code, the lines that really make me wish and keep working on my digital colouring skills.

So, don't get too down. All artists go through less enthusiastic points during their lives, some more than others, etc. We all believe in you. And we all support you and know that you can keep standing tall and produce art that amazes and astounds us. So, cheer up, dearie. ^-^

And water'd heaven with their tears
Did he smile his work to see?
Did he who made the Lamb, make thee? :bulletblue:

You're art is amazing, you have absolutely nothing to worry about. But I get what you're saying. Everyone can love something you make, but when it comes to yourself, its what you think that matters and how you feel about your own art. I think if you're still making art, practicing and getting your stuff out there, then there is no decline.

Anyway, excellent piece. Its different, and differents great!

There's a moment lost in time when she said "Hush, I'm on you're side. It's just the two of us. You know I'll never say good-bye."
