The Dreamer
Now and Then.
I really liked the concept behind this guy's design but I ditched the armor and wings and made him a bit simpler. I ought to do this more. I had a lot of interesting designs back in high school and now I have the technical skills to make them look decent.
My cat, every meal time. We have her on a feeding schedule and she knows it by heart. She harasses me until I put food in her bowl. Sometimes she even gets the dog in on it.
(I love her to bits, though.)
This is the quote that has kept me going ever since I started to really struggle with my artwork. An artist I looked up to said these words to me when I asked for help and they have been practically inked into my soul ever since. When I am in doubt, shame, and even feeling helpless about my work… I say these words to myself.
Then I pick up a pen, and I doodle. Because that’s what I need to do.
Don’t give up. Keep drawing.
