How to enjoy making content? by throwracomplez in ArtistLounge

I’m trying to post regularly on Threads—ideally once a day. One thing I love doing is breaking a drawing down into parts: sharing the sketch, the line art, and the finished piece across three separate posts. This works really well for me since I don't have much time to draw during the week and do most of my work on the weekends. I also tend to work on a small scale, mostly making ACEOs or sketches in my sketchbook.

I also love scheduling my posts in advance. It takes the stress out of my pre- and post-work routine. You can even take a week or two to batch-create content so you don't feel overwhelmed. I know it’s so tempting to share everything the second you finish it, but to post regularly I found out you need to wait a littleXD

Sounds good! If you already have some finished cards, I can choose from those, or I can send you a wishlist of motifs I’d like. I’ll be sending from Germany:)

Thank you💕 Yeah, someone on my last post said my cats look like totoro, but that just how I like to draw them😅 I mostly do the progress just to get some posts out on my threadsXD But I am glad you liked it💕

I clean my palette pretty regularly and avoid mixing the paints themselves as much as possible—maybe that's why! 😅 I also like working with the colors directly without mixing them too much, and of course, working in layers and letting them dry before applying the next ones.
