got some new markers and colored pencils and drew this to celebrate :^D I've had the idea for it for quite a while tucked inside one of my sketchbooks but just recently decided to finally spit out a final version.

Can't afford art school?

After seeing post like this 👇

And this gem 👇

As well as countless of others from the AI generator community. Just talking about how "inaccessible art" is, I decided why not show how wrong these guys are while also helping anyone who actually wants to learn.

Here is the first one ART TEACHERS! There are plenty online and in places like youtube.

📺Here is my list:

Proko (Free)

Marc Brunet (Free but he does have other classes for a cheap price. Use to work for Blizzard)

Aaron Rutten (free)

BoroCG (free)

Jesse J. Jones (free, talks about animating)

Jesus Conde (free)

Mohammed Agbadi (free, he gives some advice in some videos and talks about art)

Ross Draws (free, he does have other classes for a good price)

SamDoesArts (free, gives good advice and critiques)

Drawfee Show (free, they do give some good advice and great inspiration)

The Art of Aaron Blaise ( useful tips for digital art and animation. Was an animator for Disney)

Bobby Chiu ( useful tips and interviews with artist who are in the industry or making a living as artist)

Second part BOOKS, I have collected some books that have helped me and might help others.

📚Here is my list:

The "how to draw manga" series produced by Graphic-sha. These are for manga artist but they give great advice and information.

"Creating characters with personality" by Tom Bancroft. A great book that can help not just people who draw cartoons but also realistic ones. As it helps you with facial ques and how to make a character interesting.

"Albinus on anatomy" by Robert Beverly Hale and Terence Coyle. Great book to help someone learn basic anatomy.

"Artistic Anatomy" by Dr. Paul Richer and Robert Beverly Hale. A good book if you want to go further in-depth with anatomy.

"Directing the story" by Francis Glebas. A good book if you want to Story board or make comics.

"Animal Anatomy for Artists" by Eliot Goldfinger. A good book for if you want to draw animals or creatures.

"Constructive Anatomy: with almost 500 illustrations" by George B. Bridgman. A great book to help you block out shadows in your figures and see them in a more 3 diamantine way.

"Dynamic Anatomy: Revised and expand" by Burne Hogarth. A book that shows how to block out shapes and easily understand what you are looking out. When it comes to human subjects.

"An Atlas of animal anatomy for artist" by W. Ellenberger and H. Dittrich and H. Baum. This is another good one for people who want to draw animals or creatures.

Etherington Brothers, they make books and have a free blog with art tips.

As for Supplies, I recommend starting out cheap, buying Pencils and art paper at dollar tree or 5 below. For digital art, I recommend not starting with a screen art drawing tablet as they are more expensive.

For the Best art Tablet I recommend either Xp-pen, Bamboo or Huion. Some can range from about 40$ to the thousands.

💻As for art programs here is a list of Free to pay.

Clip Studio paint ( you can choose to pay once or sub and get updates)

Procreate ( pay once for $9.99)

Blender (for 3D modules/sculpting, ect Free)

PaintTool SAI (pay but has a 31 day free trail)

Krita (Free)

mypaint (free)

FireAlpaca (free)

Libresprite (free, for pixel art)

Those are the ones I can recall.

So do with this information as you will but as you can tell there are ways to learn how to become an artist, without breaking the bank. The only thing that might be stopping YOU from using any of these things, is YOU.

I have made time to learn to draw and many artist have too. Either in-between working two jobs or taking care of your family and a job or regular school and chores. YOU just have to take the time or use some time management, it really doesn't take long to practice for like an hour or less. YOU also don't have to do it every day, just once or three times a week is fine.

Hope this was helpful and have a great day.

more Catra :^D

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make sure to click on the picture for a better quality version, I did not put hours of work into this just for it to be that blurry.

also I'm really proud of her face (specifically the nose bridge wrinkles and the glow of her eyes) so I included a closeup for you guys to admire as well.

When I feel like that I like to paint a rock and then hide it somewhere around my town. It makes me happy to think someone might find it and like it enough to take it home with them :^)

"Dysphoric Jealousy" by yours truly.

I'm not the most proud of this one but dang it, it genuinely conveys exactly what I wanted it to

It looks a bit different in person because my camera is rather stinky but I tried to edit it to make it match the real one as best i could.

I love this one, I really enjoy when little things that are so common to me are described in a unique way that I've never thought of before.

knock before you enter

Hey, could you, maybe you know,

knock before entering my mind?

It's a bit intruding when you burst in at these inconsistent times,

In the morning when I wake, in the evening before rest,

You're keeping me up at night, an agonizing effect,

...

But explain to me the reason why,

The joy spurred from your invasion,

Call me crazy, call me blind,

It's so tantalizingly sublime,

How I welcome you with open arms as you enter my mind.

They Left Me and I Don't Think They're Coming Back

Looking for a place for all my love to go,

Grief is a summer bird in a land filled with snow.

My love was once given to someone until

They left me. Now my love has no place to fill.

I'll carry it clutched to my chest til I find

Someone who'll accept me, my love and my time,

But until then I suppose I'll stand here and wait

In the cold windy snow while I dream of the heat.

Sketchbook doodles from January 22, but they fit my mood for today as well. I didnt get much accomplished today, and the stress of having to coordinate my schedule with with multiple different people that all are atrocious communicators had me wishing I had someone to talk to about it. I took a walk while there was still sunlight outside and am feeling a lot better, and I think I'll cook something tasty for dinner to cheer myself up.
