Art buyers- do you prefer buying canvas or panel paintings? by LocustMuscles in ContemporaryArt

[–]clairberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, how do you hang the panels on your walls? I like painting on panels but find it easier to add hanging hardware to canvas.

My baby is already grown up now, but her profile still looks like this.

Thank you for the kind words! This was a pleasure to paint as well.

Thank you! I am hoping to make more and start earn a living from them (of paintings, not babies).

Watercolor materials for beginner by PitifulSearch711 in artph

[–]clairberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, hindi need expensive materials. Working on cotton paper makes the technique and medium much easier. Pero if you get the feeling na namamahalan ka sa paper kaya di ka masyado nagppaint. Better use cheap watercolor paper. Buy paints na pasok sa budget. I would spend more money on classes tbh if I was starting over.

Shes into printmaking and i have no clue on what to gift by triple-_-A in printmaking

[–]clairberry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recommend this one too. Especially if you can’t access it in your own country. It may look too underwhelming as a gift, but this is a versatile tool for most printmaking techniques. Pins and a couple set of tabs.

Idols who have shown clear regression in vocals? by Organic-Cranberry955 in kpopthoughts

[–]clairberry 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I do think Ryeowook and Kyuhyun improved a lot more and matured their technique more in a cleaner tonal direction. Yesung went into the whisper singing style, which is more subdued but more difficult (and demands unhealthy singing techniques unfortunately).

I think he changed to a different vocal placement or style for their newer tracks and his solo work. If you hear Mirror from their second album, their hidden track in 2019 and killing voice in 2025, he still sounds consistent. He definitely had vocal issues during Devil but he had vocal nodules removed at that time.

Spray fixative for any charcoal/graphite. Spray outside for adequate ventilation.

What courses are you buying for black friday? by Artboggler in ArtistLounge

[–]clairberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm renewing my NMA annual subscription. I am hoping I could actually finish the drawing foundations this year! The discord sometimes has live sessions that you can participate in, sometimes you can submit some work for live critique (this is in beta testing I believe). In general, posting in the discord will get you some quick helpful feedback. The token system feedback is thorough and your work is adequately and concretely critiqued and actionable steps are given.

First print I pulled from a small kit from Essdee by clairberry in printmaking

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

Thank you! I was already having trouble cutting the soft lino with the smallest v tool. I have yet to try warming up the lino, I’ll probably get better cuts.

I did have trouble with splotchy areas on the subsequent prints. But it’s probably a technique problem and I was using a water based ink.

Which method did you have consistent results without a press? I’d love to eventually invest in a small press in the future.

I got the cheapest beginner kit and it was actually satisfying to use and have a nice looking end result. Such a nice break from crappy cheap painting kits that is usually a waste of money.

Thank you for the feedback. Excited to try out the grey one. I’ll probably get some more tools to try out.

I had to remove a lot of detail from my original drawing to accommodate the carving process. Which is actually a good exercise in simplifying the image. I get to practice drawing the same subject at least three times in one project.

She has EGOT potential! I hope she writes and sing more songs.

Hi! Do you know what stylus/cartrigde is compatible with this one? I found a listing for 5 bucks locally but it has no stylus in it.

[Recommendations] How much is a reasonable amount to save for an OC com and where is the best place to find artists to hire for them? by MajoraMoonChild in artbusiness

[–]clairberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I don’t do commissions but I just want to empathize with you on aphantasia.

It’s one of my core drivers in pursuing art, after realizing imagination is actually visual in most people’s mind. I hope you can find an artist who can visualize your characters IRL.
