10 Tips for the ARE-TEEST!

Journal Entry: Mon Mar 3, 2008, 10:48 PM
  • Mood: Artistic
  • Listening to: MY OWN ADVICE.
1. If you're satisfied with how you draw, YOU'RE NOT TRYING HARD ENOUGH.

2. If it catches your eye, it's probably wrong.

3. The only way to improve is to tell yourself you SUCK and need to get BETTER.

3 1/2. Do this with a POSITIVE ATTITUDE. Basically "I know I SUCK, but I CAN GET BETTER. BETTER THAN FRIGGIN' PICASSO AND DA VINCI COMBINED!

4. Using reference ISNT CHEATING. People took naked pictures just for you! However, porn USUALLY isn't reference. (I mean, maybe you're illustrating the Karma Sutra or something. Then I guess it's alright)

5. STICK TO IT. If something's giving you a hard time, don't say "F**K IT!" Those are your problem areas that need improvement!

6.YES, PERSPECTIVE MATTERS. Simple as that.

7. "Get INSPIRED but DON'T COPY." Ironically, that was indeed taken from someone else...make note of the quotes.

8. DO, however, LEARN FROM OTHER ARTISTS WHO INSPIRE YOU! Take what you like about their style and INCORPORATE IT into YOUR OWN.

9. DRAW LIGHTLY. Nothing's more annoying than having an erased line appear as a deep crevasse on your paper, thus drawing unwanted attention to a certain spot on your masterpiece.

10. CARRY A SKETCHBOOK WITH YOU EVERYWHERE. EVEN IN THE FRIGGIN' BATHROOM. GOOD IDEAS COME WHILE YOU EMPTY YOURSELF...CAPS

I am on my way to becoming an INTERNET PHENOMENON!



JUST YOU WAIT, SIR.

YES YOU DO.

An act divided will not stand. But, also acts don't need to stand in general, so I suppose if your act is apart...
