Oh wow, is it already six years? Time flies so fast!
Oh and no worries, you have already now on this short period of time I have known you here in dA, improved a lot!
I cannot even imagine what kind of awesome artworks you'll be doing after six years.

xD maybe I won't do anything... you know, I have so many hobbies... I painted a lot when I was little, then when I had about 11- 12 and then now. In between I was doing many other things. It's possible that after a few years I give up on art and I will riding a horse, singing or I'l be a math psycho xD You never know...

Well, that happened to me, I drew a lot as a kid and but when I grew older and started studying I stopped drawing for few years.
Luckily I have found a joy of drawing again and I cannot see myself giving up this hobby anymore.
So if you feel like doing something else for a while you know you can always come back and start drawing again. ^^

sure but if I focus on something else and then I wanted to come back to drawing, I think I'd regret all the time I wasn't doing it --> because others would have much more practise and I would be much worse than them xD

Agaave In reply to Lelixiana [2014-02-08 06:28:18 +0000 UTC]

That's true but who knows how the other stuff you have done meanwhile when you weren't drawing would effect on your art?
You are constantly collecting your "visual memories" of colors and shapes and observing things even if you didn't do it on purpose.
Also feelings and our experiences are effecting what and how we draw.

I know my technique didn't develop during the years I didn't draw but drawing is kinda like riding a bike: once you have learned it, it cannot be forgotten so easily.
So even if feeling a bit rusty, you'd pick up the skill level where you stopped quite quickly.
Also I didn't draw dragons at all before I paused but dragons were the subject which brought me back on art. So my style and interests developed even if I didn't draw.

But please do not think I am trying to say that stopping is a good thing - I am not - but I am trying to say that if you wish to have a break that is not definitely end of your art skills and doesn't mean that you couldn't start again. I still hope you stay here and keep doing your beautiful pictures.

Thank you, you are always so helpful. Like my own psycholoist or something xD
I don't have the plans to disappear from here, but I'm not sure if it will be like that forever. Especially when I'm going to University next year, and soon after I will (hopefully) get a job... Or I won't be alone forever, I might have a boyfriend in the future (xD hehe, who would want me??) so a full time dA participation won't be possible :/
But why do I think that way? nothing's over yer, so I should think so pesimistic

And we shouldn't worry about future too much, now is now and we have to live this day. (Totally clichΓ©, I know, but so true... )

Yes, so true... We live in the moment, that's said in the present. We should care about the future only when it comes to us - and then it would be the present x'D

Oh well, I just love coloring so I put lots of time and effort on it. I think that's my secret. ^^
(And of course good pencils - I use Faber-Castell watercolor pencils - and nice, smooth paper.)

Shes simply stunning! Could I possibly use her for a color and design reference?

I'm working on a character for a RPG, she's a pink pegasi, with white stockings (tribal markings more so) and large white wings. I just have no art skill what so ever, and this is incredibly close to what I'm going for!

Thanks a lot!

You can use this as a reference as long as you credit me and link back to this picture. I would also love to see what you do so please send me a link when you have done your design. ^^

Wow! Even though I'm not partial to pink, this is gorgeous and actually made me like the color a bit more! i think it's because it's nice shades and not 'hurt and burn your eyes until they bleed" pink ^^

Wow, thanks a lot!

It is quite a compliment if this pic makes someone like pink color more! And only thing I was trying to do was to draw as sugary pic as possible.

oooh very nice! i love the wings, and the flowing, swirling lines. your works have a lovely softness to them. and i know how hard horses are to draw and i reckon you've done an awesome job, especially with such a dynamic pose!!

Thank you so much!

I tried to make as fluttery feeling as possible - that's why there are so much swirling things!
