If you're comfortable w/ it and your monitor is compatible, you can mount it on a riser - there are plenty of affordable options. Otherwise, explore monitor stands - some are also height adjustable and plenty are aesthetically pleasing. :)
@Gendou Some of my lists I'm building / how I've come to think of them
I'm a long shot from where I want to be as an artist, but my eyes work well enough to see the strides I've made and the skills I've gained -- and they *all* come from studying others. I study brush strokes, line weights, color work, values in pieces I'm wowed by.
I have a number of styles I use because they're all actually parts of me. They reflect how I'm feeling, what I'm enjoying, what makes me happy in that moment.
What might inspiration look like? Well, here's one of several pieces I've done inspired by a specific color palette.
When I do work like this, if my inspiration was generated by someone else I specifically say so and cite that inspiration.
But what might style theft look like?
Here's an official Pusheen backpack and a "Cute Cat Print Cartoon Backpack".
There's a lot that's off with the second, and yet the key elements immediately scream "Pusheen" - circle eyes, rounded head stripes, etc.
The brown/gray/muted lines in Pusheen art aren't unique to the brand, either. Its fairly common in pastel and "kawaii" themes. Little Twin Stars match Pusheen themes quite a bit.
