PE:How To Achieve Smooth and Clean Lines

Jul 14, 2015

Digital Art Hello everyone, Since it's something many people struggle with while working digitally, today I will be discussing how you can achieve smooth and clean lines using digital mediums. SAI Stabilizer Tool Paint Tool SAI offers my favorite method of creating smooth lines with its easy to use Stabilizer tool that works with absolute ease and no need for complicated setting adjustments. It doesn't matter how shaky your hands might be, the stabilizer tool will still be capable of creating beautifully smooth lines for you. As you can see, the stabilizer tool is easily accessed, and you can quickly and easily adjust the level of stabiliz

Mar 23, 2015

Fractal Art Week Hello! Welcome to the Fractal Art week at projecteducate (https://www.deviantart.com/projecteducate)! :la: My name is C-91 (https://www.deviantart.com/c-91) and I take care of the Fractal Art gallery as Community Volunteer. What is a fractal? A fractal is a natural phenomenon or a mathematical set that exhibits a repeating pattern that displays at every scale.Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Fractals are an intrinsic aspect of Nature, and can be found in a multitude of elements, such as plants... minerals... ...or fossils, just to name a few examples. :) The beauty of Fractal Art lies not only in its close relationship with the laws of Nature, but also in its diversity: there are a lot

Wow, Life got busy! by BeccaJS, journal

Wow, Life got busy!

Jul 1, 2014

I always knew this time of year would be nuts, that's one of the reasons I stood down from CVing, but never thought it would be this busy! There's under 7 weeks till my wedding and every weekend between now and then is full of plans! I've had my hen do, Joseph's had his stag, but that doesn't stop other stags and hens between, plus dress fittings, another wedding and of course race for life! Busy busy busy!! My head at the moment feels like a volcano at the point its about to erupt. My "To-Do" lists seem to be getting longer instead of shorter. To add to this, my small toddler-creature has decided bed time is now an hour later and there's an

So tired of not achieving what you want?

So tired of not achieving what you want? :thumb351497375: Everyone has something they really want dearly, a career, to have a certain loved one, to be able to make certain things... The most common one among us artist are: - I want to be able to draw better - I want to be able to draw like "this"person. - I want to earn money with my drawing. - I want to be able to draw what I imagine in my head. - I want more people to appreciate my art. - I want more feedback from artists I admire. - I want more.. - I want better.... All this wanting.. dreaming of... hoping for. How about doing it!! With these sort of "wants", it's a matter of DOING IT

The stuff that artists go through.

Apr 27, 2014

There are so many pro's and con as to being an artist, professional or as a hobby. It feels nice to be able to express yourself through something you make and when that something turns out to be looking good we get this sense of accomplishment. Most of the time though there are bad feelings mixed with the good ones. :bulletblue: Not being understood. Those moments where your friends or family does not understand that you have to desire to be alone and work on your art. Those copious amounts of hours you spend working and they wonder why you wouldn't rather be outside relaxing in the sun or hang out with your friends. The only people who wi

Are you being honest with yourself? by Suzanne-Helmigh, journal

Are you being honest with yourself?

Apr 9, 2014

As part of becoming good at something you need to be able to reflect upon yourself. Judge your own abilities and work and consider the possibility that what ever you have been doing it wrong all along. Or perhaps you're actually being to hard on yourself and you're better than your conscious is telling you. (This is bad too because it leads to insecurities.) Signs that you might overestimate your current skills. Do you often feel these things when you look upon work from good artists?: I can totally do this too. This is not so hard, I can do this faster. My work is way more interesting. It's not fair that this person gets way more atte

What to do as an artist in training.

Feb 26, 2014

There are many ways to Rome they say. But I meet a lot of aspiring artists lost and asking me for guidance and this is what I tell them. (This is a revisited version of an old journal with new and updated guidelines/info) Find out what you really want to do with art, there are so many different professions or hobbies to take on. Graphic designer, Concept artist (mobile and high end), Illustrator of book covers or for card games and so much more. Once you can make your pick, or at least pick 1 or 2 you must do research on the most valued artwork from that niece. Find out what makes the best artist of your favorite field the best artist. Wha

Fast lane to becoming a better artist.

Feb 22, 2014

I often get this very question: How did you get this good this fast? Now as I consider myself not being as good as people tell me, even struggling quite often with being an artist in general. I do know how to get better and how to reach it fast. I'm still growing as I go and it's the main thing that keeps me going. You need to get into the right mindset and the rest will follow. With the rest I mean: 1. Willpower. 2. Endurance. 3. Positive energy. 4. The NEED to draw. :bulletblue: Seeing growth in your work gives you the courage to work harder. You know that feeling when you're just about done with an image and feel like this image is bett
