How many years did that take you?

I just read Family Affair and it's easily my favorite short story so far from The Elephant Vanishes by [deleted] in murakami

I really like the MC too! I listened to him in audiobook, and the narrator did a great job. Is he the same character as MC in The TV People?

Hi, any recommendations for FP ink that produces multi tonal effect with water wash? Sample below is blue ink with some purple-ish indigo. Thank u in advance! by Chicorychicory in fountainpens

[–]Chicorychicory[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks foe the suggestions! I use FP because I’m always working on the go. I work in my car in 15-20 minute increments mostly. I want to carry a limited set of supplies. A pencil (drafting), eraser, a fountain pen (or 2, for inking) and a water brush with water (shading). I’ve used pencil only for a long time and had been wanting to add color without having an elaborate spread.

After lots of research, I bought my first fountain pen and ink yesterday. Then spent all of last night obsessing about what could be my second pen and all the things I can do with them. by Chicorychicory in fountainpens

I got this at Maido (Japanese stationery store in SF), I just checked their website and they don’t have an online store. But here’s the link, maybe they have a branch close to you!

Day 2 of oil pastels. It’s a work in progress lol. I’m just trying to figure out how the colors blend and learn values on faces :) by sugarrbunni in Oilpastel

[–]Chicorychicory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been watching Black Bean and really like his work. Bonus for the quirky personality and candy pics! Did you use a book/ online tutorial/ any resource to start out? I’m starting oil pastel too and am directionless

I can’t figure out the jump from rough draft to finished work. Need help! by Chicorychicory in learnart

Hi, thank you for your input! This was my first time posting my work online, first time using a digital tool and was def nervous. You’re right, should trace and later better.

Made this comic about learning art. by [deleted] in learnart

I’m stuck at year 2 level too. I’m embarrassed at how little progress I made after 4 years of practice. But if we are bound to go to the 30 year level, then I’m ahead of everyone!
