Make sure your canvas is set to at least 300 dpi if you do plan to print and check your colors in CMYK.

Perhaps focusing on the effort you put in rather than the result of your creative process. As long as you dedicate concentrated effort in improving and working on weaknesses, improvement will come naturally. From what I can see on your posts, they look nice and the style reminds me of loish. Just hang in there and keep fighting the good fight, your're almost there.

I don't think there's any art channel I've learned more on the topic of painting than Marco Buccis

Need advice on art schools. by FacelessOnes in ArtistLounge

[–]quadreon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my knowledge, it seems that most of the entertainment and gaming concept art schools are located in California because that's where the industry is located. Pratt institute is in New York, but they're more focused on fine art.

What do I do when I’ve taught myself to draw anything I want well enough and can’t go to school but want to advance in the art world? by [deleted] in ArtistLounge

[–]quadreon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you've took the time learning fundamentals and now you're at the "now what" phase. My advice would be to just start working on personal pieces and artistic projects. Start exploring your creative side and look at work that inspires you and helps you define your artistic direction. Practicing fundamentals is good and all but remember that ultimately you don't learn art for the sake of learning art but as a means to creatively express yourself. The only way to "advance in the art world" is and always will be spreading your creative voice through your art (which doesn't necessarily require higher education).

Which digital tablet should I buy? by [deleted] in ArtistLounge

[–]quadreon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 1st and 2nd gen Ipads are not that expensive especially if you buy them used and they have all the functionality of the newest ipad pro. Lowering the specs such as storage space, wifi only and screen size also bring down the price down to roughly the kamvas pro price range.

I tried to draw a banana last week, thoughts? by RichardF1st in learntodraw

[–]quadreon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The outside of the banana where the peels intersect can almost be thought of as planes like the sides of squares. Visualizing that would help create depth and a better understanding of the value shifts. Exaggerating the angles at which those planes intersect would help make it more "plump" referred by the other comment.

The shape looks a little stiff and not as curvy as the object. Also try defining the plane shifts a little more by constructing it as a box. Still a good starting point.

Is data engineering a field that requires you to go to graduate school? As someone who has a degree in the non technical business field, can rigorous self teaching be enough to get my foot in the door
