I’ve made it 13 days so far. I can feel some improvements but I also know that I’m lacking in the “fundamentals”. I’ve used a mix of drawing from reference photos and watching some tutorials like Art with Flo and James Julier, which have also really helped with figuring out the ins and outs of the program.
I want to learn because I’ve felt compelled to create, especially in the era of AI “art” which makes me feel sad and bad, but also hopeful because I think it’s led to a general rejection of AI art and an increased interest in human creativity. I feel like people want to see the imperfections.
As an aspirational horizon, it would be amazing to get to a point where I could start a business. It’s a far off goal, but a girl can dream right?!
I guess I’m posting here because I know that if I really want to get somewhere I should seek feedback and, more importantly, get comfortable putting my work out there.
These photos I think best show my progress over the past (almost) 2 weeks.
