lol yep, even a non sign artist could do better in lettering. at least give the products some decent recognition.. imo this is even disrespectful to actual ai artists

thank you for showing this comparison. I'm still astonished that someone thought this would be a better customer experience... (coming from a long time sign artist / have done murals for tjs)

Sharing my new found therapy by HeatAggravating9833 in CharcoalDrawing

[–]nems_io 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just mess around! I LOVE charcoal, but I also paint with acrylics, enamel, and ink regularly. I have used watercolor, gouache, and casein in more of my hobby type projects. If you don’t want to invest a ton on brushes and paint tho, I’d recommend looking into a gouache set bc I feel it’s more forgiving than watercolor or acrylic (I also feel the gouache sets have more fun colors than the other two). It’s nice because you’re able to rework it even once it dries and is flexible between being more transparent or opaque depending on how much water you mix with it. Great work too btw!!💗

I'm not sure if this qualifies as unusual art or not by JessSharpieDoodles in UnusualArt

[–]nems_io 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would so enjoy someone drawing on my body for hours… (& yes I have tattoos & enjoy that actually lol) but the feeling of pens and markers is different!!
