In the Fog
Added 2023-06-21 06:51:17 +0000 UTCThis was a really fun piece to start off with as a attempt, and I had a pretty ambitious plan! Sadly, it seems my skill is still lacking in many ways.
I really put all I had into this piece, but (as its becoming a pattern of late), I feel like I hit a wall again.
The complexity of the pose also allowed space for a lot of tough questions to pop up as I progressed, and I feel I couldn't answer all of them despite trying my best. (Full discussion in this month's process video!)
Looking through my past works, this probably is one of the most detailed - yet I'm still really not happy with how I finished it.
I want every new piece to be impressive, but maybe that is asking for too much! I do feel bad that despite your kind support here, my recent work has been inadequate in a way I never really felt before. Maybe I'm just really tired, but I will keep trying my best.
I realized this reads like a real downer! But I think it's important to acknowledge bad times as well, rather than putting on a false front, and I hope in some way my struggles can help you feel less alone!

2023-06-28 10:08:55 +0000 UTCI genuinely don’t think this piece is bad at all, the contrast between the darker background to the warm values of the lamp really make the piece pop. The only thing that stood out to me was the warm values were too drastic making the lamp the main subject instead of the dragon, which with some cast shadows on the dragon could be all you need to complete this piece. Your work is a great inspiration to me and hope you don’t be too harsh on yourself, looking forward to the next one!
