I've redone my commissions page! I'm trying to save up money to move into an apartment with a friend, but I'm not making enough at my job along with other college expenses and I don't think I'll have enough by the time I need it. If you can't commission please REBLOG!

More details + terms are below the cut!

Happy new year~

I drew Addam for @artistsofelysium World of Alrest Zine!!!! It's a digital pay what you want zine, and the donations go to charity! Please check it out, there's over 100 pieces of art!!!! That's crazy!!!

Dang, I just realized I never posted my finished picture I did for @XCXfanzine . This was a while ago.....better posting late than never? 

17.What would you absolutely refuse to draw?

Hmmm…..probably hardcore pornography, intense gore, and hate art. I do like the aesthetic of a lot of horror/gore/guro art, and I could see myself drawing some of that in the future, but there’s a point where it just straight up makes me uncomfortable. I’m sure there’s some other stuff, but those are the big ones.

18.What is your purpose for drawing?

I honestly just draw for fun, as a hobby. I like the feeling of, “hey! I made this, and that’s something special.” I get after finishing a drawing I like. I would love to become good enough that I could enter the industry in one way or another and become an artist as a job, but I don’t know if I could get my skills or motivation up to an industry standard level…… For now I’ll just stick with doing commissions now and again.

25. Draw a picture!

Here’s a Niles sketch just for u <3

4.What defines your artistic style?

Hmmm…. I’d say how “glowy” the coloring of my art is. I always try to have some sort of bright light in my art, and I’ve gotten a lot of compliments on how bright my art is. I like this part of my art, but I also feel like I can work on balancing having too much glowing light and the rest of the shading. I’m still working on it.

6.What levels of artistic education have you had?

So I started drawing when I was in elementary school, and I would copy the pictures on Pokemon cards (as in looking at the picture, and recreating that same picture, not tracing). I got a lot of compliments when I was younger from those, so I kept drawing. It wasn’t until high school that I actually took some art classes. I took 4 years of art, including AP art (which was a wild adventure, but that story is too long for this ask). I’m still considering if I want to take any college art classes or not. Probably not if I’m being completely honest.

14.What do you like drawing the most?

Definitely anime style characters, lol. Whether they’re just sketches of existing characters, or my own OC’s, that’s what I can draw the fastest and what I’m most comfortable with. Honestly I should probably get back to drawing more real life people and objects, just so that I can do some studies and improve my art more.

21.Do you believe there is such thing as “bad art?”

…..yes? I can think back to my old art I’ve done as bad, and not just because I like to hate my own art, but because of legitimate reasons. Stuff like bad shading, composition, use of the medium, etc. But that just means I’ve learned how to identify and improve on my past mistakes to make something better than the “bad” art that I’ve done. I also think that hate art or art done with ill intent towards others for no good reason is bad, no matter how objectively good a piece is.
