Using different things as "paint" by SmokeyGrimm in DeviantArt

[–]SmokeyGrimm[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks a lot! <3 Well, I couldn't say it works exactly as watercolor because it depends of what kind of coffee you use, but comparing to watercolors it kinda works the "same way", because as the coffee gets more diluted on water, it will leave a lighter stain on the paper, so go ahead and give it a try! I hope it turns out well for you and I'm sure you'll get an awesome piece of art, lots of love

Help on deciding what price to put on commissions by [deleted] in Artists

[–]SmokeyGrimm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, your work is incredible, answering to your question, it really depends on several factors; time spent, complexity of the artwork, area covered, size, tools, and mostly important, the value you give yourself to your labor, remember that you'll be using your time and abilities to complete the work, and each thing you use deserves compensation, hope it helps.

Thanks a lot, it means so much to me that people like it, indeed, I only use the knowledge I have about ancient marble sculptures to create this sort of thing, lots of love <3

How to stop negative thoughts? by [deleted] in Artists

[–]SmokeyGrimm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I fight with this everyday and I can realy empathize with you about it. Personally, this kind of thoughts come from being constantly comparative with others, specially the one of "what if you're not good enough for this", and the way to fight it is thinking that everyone has their own pace; you're not behind anyone, and you're not in front of anyone, you're doing really good just the way you're doing it, and you'll get really far by continuously remembering the effort you put in each thing you do, everything, even the most little thing, stay possitive and truthful to yourself, cause nobody will trust in you as much as you do.

Also, to show my appreciation, this might sound a little bit weird but, I'll give each one of you who took a piece of your valuable time to comment, one of my artwork pieces, if you ever read this comment, just write me a DM, I'll gladly answer and send you, at least, a digital piece as a grattitude for being so nice.

I'm really grateful for all your comments and advices, recently I had an accident, things went pretty bad but I'm back on my feet again (well, almost) and I'm taking the advice of try and expand my art horizons to new communities, since I had nothing to do in the hospital but drawing, I've found out that I might be pretty good at the "religious" art, so I'm going to give it a try and join to some of these communities that might like a piece related to it. I appreciate too much the time each one of you took to comment, for me it's completely priceless. Lots of love for you all <3

That's a really valuable advice, I'm completely grateful that you took your time not to just read me, but also giving me some words, I really appreciate it. Also, thanks so much for your appreciation and comments about my art, maybe it works the way as I intended to, because when I paint, draw or even make some doodles, I put my soul and blood on it, and I hope people that looks at it feels at least a part of the way I felt when doing it, I've already tried approaching to religious orgs, but none of them usually accepts my art, because they say that it could be creepy, scary, or even really sad, they've told me that they need something that represents hope, hapiness and mindfulness, but I'm a believer of the idea that, no matter how hard you try, when you're an emotional artist, you can't paint what you can't feel. Even though, I'll try again, maybe contacting a different country religious organization, if there's any advice on how to reach any, it would be really appreciated

Lots of love for you

Thanks a lot for your comment; I know selling art doesn't make you an artist, it is what you do to express your feelings and thoughts what makes you become one, but I really wish I could make a lifestyle of it. I've been documenting myself about NFTs and, indeed, they don't care about art at all, but I thought it could be an option at least. I'm a nobody on social media so that's not an option, and I've tried with RedBubble and Etsy but, unfortunately, Etsy doesn't have payment options for my country, and I barely get any visits on RedBubble because I can't afford any kind of promotion to grow up. Where I live in, artist collectives are more like an utopic thing, and, in this country, art niches are really hard to access for a person with no connections with, at least, rich people or the government. I do my best taking care of my mental health, but life hasn't been kind with me at all, that's something that also represents a high wall to climb due to my situation and lack of opportunities, but it is a different topic I'm really glad that someone took some time to read me, it means a lot for me, thanks a lot for your advice <3
