@ariel-ashira :O That dragon and that unicorn though! Those are epic. The dragon looks like he’s thinking “What’s that terrible thing up ahead?” And the unicorn’s like “It’s alright, my friend”

@ariel-ashira OOH! Hmm, maybe! *sneaks off to my brainstorming sheet* Hmm.

@ariel-ashira Thanks! It will hopefully get better as time goes on…. 🙂

@skredder Thanks!

@catwing Okay. If you want a full-body picture of my dog, though, I can give it to you….

AAH! I DON’T WANNA BE NOBODY!!!! *howls* *shivers* 🙁 🙁 🙁 ;( ( 😉 ) *winks* It’s fine. 🙂

Yeah, I know. Oh. I must have made it seem like Riddlewit actually…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira While I do mind the mess ups very much so.. *glares at millions of mistakes* If they’re in my sketchbook I usually just leave them.

Whoops I kind of hijacked your thread. Sorry! I have a tendency to drag out conversations to what might be an uncomfortable length.. 🙂 (Online that is.. Irl i’m an awkward introvert who hasn’t quite…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira Wow! That’s some pretty awesome artwork! 😀

@ariel-ashira Hmm I can see that. For me since I like to draw outside the house its super handy to have the portable..ness? Oh Portability! Of a sketchbook. I’m clearly bias though since sketchbooks are what i’m used to. I do like to doodle on random printer paper sometimes though. It feels like less pressure since you can just throw it away…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira Wow! You must carry that thing around with you everywhere 😉
What don’t you like about sketchbooks? The price? (’cause I don’t like that either!) But its really nice having something to keep all your drawings together in. I guess a folder would accomplish that though.

This page is a great place to start!

@ariel-ashira Yeah I’m kind of dreading having to purge my old junk-Oops I mean treasures! But with an average of 1 or 2 journal pages a day.. and an average of 2 or 3 sketchbook pages… Its really gonna add up!
And Yes I do! Although its really been a more recent thing. I think I started sometime.. Late 2016? Not positive though. It’s really a…[Read more]

The Myers Briggs  (or MBTI) is the personality type test you took. You said you were an ENFJ? That’s your Myers Briggs. My Myers Briggs is INFP and there’s other ones ENFP, INTJ, ESTJ etc. I find the types really helpful for creating characters, you should read up about the Myers Briggs on the 16Personalities website.

@ariel-ashira Haha after I posted I thought that might be the answer I get. That’s what a lot of artists say! Though there is the occasional person who hasn’t always liked to draw. (Like myself 😉 )
Yeah nowadays I don’t throw my art away.. (The hoard is growing though! :0 ) But i’m sad because I don’t have much from when I was younger. It’s so…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira

Those animals are absolutely lovely!!

@ariel-ashira Cool! How long have you been drawing?  🙂
*Gasps* You do oil panting? Oil paint scares me! I hear you can do some really good blending with it though! I really like the ladies hair.
Oh also you’re really good at drawing horses! I can tell you’ve practiced. Haha that reminds me of a really old drawing of a horse I did. Me and my…[Read more]

@ariel-ashira, indeed, so informative. answers every question in the world, so it must be.

@ariel-ashira, I think part of the reason it was structured differently was because of the age group that each was focusing on. are y’all going to do his sci-fi/fantasy one?

@ariel-ashira, but at least you would have an excuse

@ariel-ashira, I did cover story 7-8th grade. it was easier for me because it was more flexible. OYAN isn’t super rigid, but for me it wasn’t enjoyable or easy for me to learn. my sister, who loves structure was able to use it brilliantly, but not me.

@ariel-ashira, just don’t put it away for three years and forget about it 🙂

@ariel-ashira, ish. I think its a great program, but there isn’t much breathing room. I like flexibility, not rigid structure.
