Arty arty mcartfart

Alright, so! I figured I might as well get off my ass and make a post about my art, because yeah. Long time no blather. I get to share more of the lame.

So, I'm sitting in my Animation class, going slowly green with envy over the fact that almost everyone in my class is a fucking AWESOME ARTIST who are so much better than me that I feel I should apologise for breathing on them, because I might contaminate their ART or something. Seriously. This one guy, I want to MARRY his hands. He's a brilliant artist and his art makes me happy.

So like I said, I'm sitting there, slowly looking more and more like Kermit the Frog, and it suddenly occured to me. I'm getting -better-. It's not like I'm actually trying all that hard. Sure, I'll take the time to go over stock photos, and read tutorials and that, but I don't actually remember applying them. Mostly it's just drawdrawdraw heyIlikethewaythatworksletskeepit drawdrawdrawFAIL. But I was comparing a couple of images today.

Namely this:

Which is more recent, and this:


From ten months or so ago.

So yeah. I can see I still have a long way to go, but at least I'm not going to beat myself up about it any longer. Or too much.

Okay, so I'll look like the Incredible Hulk by the end of the week, but shhhhh. I'm trying to be positive here!

On another note, I just want to say that although I barely write in this thing, I feel more comfortable doing so than writing in my Live Journal. Isn't that a little odd? I think it's because the guys from Uni probably don't even know this exists. At least, I hope they don't.

Because some of the things I think are fucking AWFUL.
