#fun tip

Theres always this trend with me and that’s when I get emotional or if i fail myself my first reaction is to “blow up” and start complaining and complaining and then it usually takes some time to process my emotions and start looking at it rationally

now im not saying I failed, I got a B and thats great HOWEVER I will say I did have high expectations but I know what I did wrong and I am going to write this paragraph damnit as a self critique art blog bullshit man this started as a backup art blog and now its actually a blog lmfao

The main problem with my papers is to simply put it is a lack of planning. I wanted to do a book cover, poggers, but did I plan? no. I had a basic plot and I decided to do mystery but I did not stick to it, I just wanted to paint whatever I thought looked good and that destroys the entire intention for a design paper. And this is honestly the only reason I see why I missed the mark.

Plannning and taking time is something I struggle with and am trying to improve with. In terms of improvement, in janurary, I could only bring myself to spend no more than an hour on a piece, but now I can spend max 6 hours. 

BUT despite this, I find IGCSE art worth it because it built up confidence and my technical skills. I take this now as more of a “im so proud of what I did, this is the first big art project i’ve ever done and I take myself more seriously”

I always see people say IGCSE art is so lifeless and all, and sometimes I do agree with that because at the end of the day the main thing they do focus on is fine arts/realistic art with deep meaning, but it’s fun to learn new painting skills sometimes u know.
