I just checked and as of yesterday, it was two weeks since I updated my journal with a vow to do more artwork and continue to experiment! Lets see how I did...

23 new Deviations since April 14th!

My favourites from the two-weeks;


Twenty-three new pieces of artwork (admittedly of varying degrees of polish) in two weeks is quite the record for me Thats 1.5 pictures a day! WHOOHOO! Go me, go me, go me <3

Okay, enough of my silliness now; I am quite pleased with the direction my work seems to be going, in particular with regards to combining Photoshopped textures on vector artwork. I seem to have broken any reservations I had with drawing animals in a stylised way (I've noticed less fear in doing more simplified forms, exaggerated features, etc) but there is always room for more experimentation. People are my next hurdle and one that I will admit is going to take a while to leap over. I'm caught on that fine line between too simple (i.e. Powerpuff Girls) and my head telling me it has to have cheekbones, jawline, this, that, etc. Keep those constructive comments coming <3

If anyone can recommend any artists, out there or here on DA, for some inspiration, please leave a message or send a note <3

Any clubs out there?
Yes, I am looking for any clubs on DA (or even any groups outside of DA, like any forums or LJ communities, etc) that have regular art challenges or art trades, etc.

Or even any budding watchers and friends who would like to do regular trades/challenges.

Aside from my own musings, I think its always refreshing to have someone else's characters or setting or themes to draw and can really free up the creative side of the brain. I've tried sifting through the communities and club listings but most seem dead now, which is a shame

If you're part of a club, own a club, or know of a club/group/etc, leave a message or send a note please <3
