The fledgling Artist

@notawriter Captain America is soooooo aaaaaawesome! I also like Hawk Eye and Black Panther (BLACK PANTHER MOVIE IN FEBRUARY!!!!!)

@notawriter Thank you! sorry for the delayed introduction

@notawriter Short answer: my favorite color is green. There are a few shades of green that I prefer, and there are a few shades of green I don’t like. That is actually a pretty interesting story regarding how green became my favorite color if you’d like to hear it.

@notawriter Oh yes! So many cool effects and other things can be done with digital. You can do so much with light and overlays. They can change the tone of a piece so drastically. One drawing can be colored and lighted in fifteen different ways and can have fifteen different moods and feelings.

It was pretty cool when I realized that the shapes…[Read more]

@notawriter

These two videos are done by the same person, and while they are good they are also quite long. Keep in mind that you don’t have to use a drawing tablet. As long as you’ve got the drawing program on your computer it will work. I’ve only…[Read more]

@notawriter If you ever want, I can recommend a few YouTube videos that helped me tremendously when it came to digital art environments.

@notawriter and @itisastarrynight I like Opera/Operetta because it’s fun to sing, and I love popular songs and musicals from the 30s, 40s, and 50s.  Especially songs by Bing Crosby, Gordon MacRae, and Jo Stafford.  My favorite composer is Jerome Kern, who wrote Show Boat and Roberta.

And of course, the old hymns.  My family went to a Chris…[Read more]

@seekjustice Thanks! Some of my hobbies are drawing and really any little thing that sounds cool at the moment. And I can’t take complete credit for the username. My mom was a big help in choosing it.

Oh, and my MBTI is ISFJ, with a little ISTJ.

@daeus I am pretty biased towards the Nancy Drew books, the original ones, if the 51 of them I have…[Read more]

@daeus Yes that’s really helpful!

@dragon-snapper WHOA 1000 words a day… *claps* I tried 700 a day last summer and it overworked my brain. Also, I’ve previously stumbled upon a website that seems to be the simplified version of 4thewords: http://cerey.github.io/fighters-block/ (and, it’s free). I may try out the free trial of 4thewords, so…[Read more]

@notawriter  Classic!

@perfectfifths Ahhh haha X)

Why did the chicken go to the doctor?   It had people pox

What do geese get when you scratch a nail on a chalkboard?   People bumps!

And one of my favorites…

A guy walks into a bar and hits his head.

@notawriter Oh boy… XD

What do astronauts throw a party?……..

They planet! XD

@notawriter Right now I’m just working on a few of the main cast. And for art, I don’t paint. Mainly I draw with pencil and paper, then scan it into my computer so I can color it digitally.

@dekreel I do indeed like dragons, but I do have to say I prefer Griffons. I think they’re just a wee bit cuddlier. 🙂 Anyhow, I have a thing for mystery and…[Read more]

@notawriter  *heart eyes*  He’s so CUTE! Thank you! He’s awesome! That’s okay — you did fine 🙂

WHAT smudge?! I don’t see a smudge!!

Thanks so much! I love him!

@notawriter @emily @dragon-snapper @supermonkey42

Just wanted to let y’all know I checked out the music you recommended. I absolutely LOVE Audiomachine, The Piano Guys, Brunuhville and Keith Merill!!!! Thank you for bringing more epic-beautiful-inspiring music into my life ❤❤❤

@notawriter I’m sure you’ll get there though! 👍I hope we get to see some of your poetry here on the KP forum some time 😉

@notawriter Book Pipline is going to have a poetry contest soon i think, if you’re interested (bookpipeline.com)

Fun goals! @notawriter poetry sounds like a fun area to discover

@mariposa my family really likes to watch Bonanza (Hoss is my favorite character), The Rifleman, Big Valley (Jared’s my favorite character), Andy Griffith show, Dick Van Dyke show the best. how ’bout you?

My deepest apologies to @Stan and @Dragon-snapper. Let me clarify: the only dragons I want to kill are the evil ones. 😛

Thank you so much, everyone, this is extremely helpful!!!

@Theacornman The dragons in my story are pretty big; like, maybe roughly three times the size of a workhorse? I should probably make them smaller, though, so they can…[Read more]

@notawriter Yes! ☺️ I make cards all the time (I hope to start my own card company someday).

Thanks, @notawriter! 😀
You should see some of my drawings from last year, though. No, on second thought, you shouldn’t see them. They were not the best. : )
