Lions studies! + little rant??
🕑 Added 2024-12-30 01:00:02 +0000 UTCBetcha didn't expect this huh?? Last year I bought an Aaron Blaise tutorial bundle that was on sale and FINALLY got to do some real studies with it! It's so good and in depth and super interesting :D
I know this is VERY different from what you're all used to, and I was wondering if it was even worth posting. Reality is, I have always felt super bad about jumping from style to style, different subjects, different moods. There are things that I obviously prefer drawing but at the same time I am one of those people that would like to be able to draw a lil bit of everything.
It's always been an obsession of mine to have the skill to decently pull off a wide variety of things art wise, but I know that that's not how you build an audience (easily). I used to think I just had to find what I really liked and stick to it but what if I never find it? What if it doesn't exist??
Overtime I had to start accepting that this is just who I am. I love so many different things and styles, not only art related but also in real life. I don't stick to a specific aesthetic and that's probably my best asset. Accepting who I am is hard though, especially these days where all we do is comparing ourselves with other people. I am trying my best to embrace the fact that this patreon will be a wild ride of random posts, nsfw, environment studies, personal deep stuff, animal drawings, and more.
Thank you so much for staying and for helping me accept who I am as an artist :)

Accepting oneself despite one's percieved flaws is one of the most difficult things. But what you yourself might experience as a weakness someone else might view as a strength. It's all a matter of perspective. And we get too caught up in our viewpoint, and fail to see it from a different angle. I think it's good to try new things and discover new perspectives through doing so. I don't think anybody will try and hold you accountable for what you choose to do ans neither should you. Embrace who you are and turn it into a strength. That's how you grow as a person and an artist. Anyway philosophical rant over, i love the diversity, keep up the good work. <3

Si non me lo aspettavo e va benissimo cosรฌ. Essere in grado di disegnare un po' di tutto penso sia la parte migliore di essere un'artista (o almeno provarci). E costruire un pubblico (facilmente) vuol dire anche accettare di disegnare un po' quello che piace a te, e un po' quello che piace agli altri... scoprendo anche cose nuove. E a me va benissimo avere post casuali, nsfw (non mentirรฒ secondo me sei MOLTO brava), studi ambientali, sfw profondi (ancora PIร brava) , cose personali etc. Ti ho sempre accettata e supportata per quello che sei e che fai e continuerรฒ a farlo. Quindi non preoccuparti e vai avanti. Un abbraccio, tvb, UN SACCO, e spero che queste parole possono aiutarti ed esserti di conforto almeno un pochino ๐ฅบ๐ซถ๐ป
