2007-2022
I was just out of art school, afraid to draw men and backgrounds, I didn't know how to color digitally. I had no confidence in myself.
15 years of hard work, practicing and improving, making mistakes, growing as a an artist. It's not a talent thing. #skillnottalent

2009 - 2022
It’s honestly so surreal to see myself go from using MS paint for lines and watching videos on YouTube to learn how to use photoshop and brushes for backgrounds to this
Patience and learning really got me here
2015 vs 2022
i'm less scared of backgrounds now

I see #skillnottalent going around and let me say
When I first started doing art, I'd take hours upon hours for a bust, shading was completely incorrect, I couldn't actually draw full bodies, and wouldn't even think about backgrounds
Perseverance takes you far
~2015 --> 2021

Absolutely love working on backgrounds. There has been a bit of demand for galaxy themed ones lately so check this out!
Also 2019 vs 2022 for different styles. Even in the last few years I've learned SO MUCH lol. I still have a long way to go especially with perspective and building environments/backgrounds, but I'll get there 🥹
Joining in #ArtVsArtist! What I'm most proud of this year is the work I've done of original characters, as well as more complicated backgrounds. There's 4 different characters of mine here: Dan (top middle), Willa (middle left), Sam (bottom left) and Arthur (bottom right).
I also didn't always like backgrounds or wings, but now, after gaining an understanding of them, I love them!
2009 vs 2022

2020 --> 2022
in other words years of practice really does something (also hey i'm way less scared of backgrounds now!)
Christmas is closing in, but in this part of the world the heat is getting insane :<. So i drew Mythra in the beach.
Still can´t draw backgrounds tho.

#SkillnotTalent Difference between 2020 and 2022! Me trying out forest backgrounds.
In 2020 I drew my first background and this year I'm back to my attempts at drawing backgrounds🌿
I tried to use character designs that midjourney gave me, but honestly I thought mine and Mara's were better-suited to the story. (left v2, right v4 of MJ)
It was difficult to find backgrounds that worked with the style, but I think I managed it.
Hey so, my dear friend Saltknight could use some commissions.
Fullbody:
-sketch 20
-ink 40
-paint 60
Also offered are: half bodies and portraits. Character design is more. Simple Backgrounds are complimentary.

I didn't start my digital art journey until 2019.. Before then- all of my work was traditional ink. I had to teach myself color theory, backgrounds, anatomy, etc. I would lock myself in my office at my normal day job and just watch tutorials all day lol
