For those who seem to only draw crappy drawings...


Okay, so I understand that this sucks...  

You don't feel like you can succeed, and everything you draw is crap.  

But don't worry about success or failure.  Recognition comes after you have succeeded, and the ones who succeed are the ones who can make it through the long period of being unrecognized.

What kind of Patron Rewards/Goals would you like?

Hi patrons!First of all, I wanna give a big thank you to all of you wonderful patrons.  Your support has been overwhelming and I'm so grateful!

With that said, I feel like it's really important for me to give you patron goals and rewards that you want.

I used to have goals like monthly and weekly streams on YouTube, but I'm seeing that these aren't doing so well as the streams used to.  I've had some negative comments, and the streams seem to be just answering the same ques...

Realistic Kei Process PSD

Did this pic of Kei, and figured maybe people would like to be able to download the .PSD and see the process of how a painting like this comes together.  

So, for those interested, here's a dropbox link to the PSD: https://www.dropbox.com/s/8fot9ui5j8el3nm/Kei_Process.psd?dl=0

( it's a big file folks, so it may take some time to download )

5 Tips to Help You Draw More

I made this a few years ago for a CG Cookie article, and it's no longer available on that platform, so I figured I'd post it here.

If you’re reading this, I’m assuming you are someone who draws, or is interested in drawing.   For people like us, it’s not hard to want to draw... And there are great reasons ...

April 2016 - SycraStream

Hey everyone,

I'm gonna be holding the SycraStream a bit earlier this month because I will be away for a few weeks.  Hope the time isn't too inconvenient, and I apologize if it is.  Everything will be recorded though, so if you can't make it, it'll still be up there.  

 

The stream starts Monday April 25th at 8pm GMT, 12pm PST, 3pm EST.

My Thoughts on Critiques

So, a student artist asked me:


"Did you ever send your art to someone better than you for critiques? And if you did, how did you do it?

Did you just send random images of your work, or did you send the best of your work, or did you send your work with a common idea in mind? 
Basically, what do you think would be the best way to send a bulk of work for a critique?"


I figured I'd post my reply, as it could help o...
