Artist ask meme: 🌈🌗🌊

How did you get pictures in the askbox????? Like *whoosh* mind is blown! I have never understand how people do that. Wow! Oh and thank you so much for the ask!! 🙂

🌈 Do you use more warm or cold colors?
Hmm I’m thinking cold to be honest. It’s one of the things I noticed when I was looking at my colour palettes. I was wondering why my art never seems to pop and I thought it probably had something to do with the hue and saturation. My colours are always muted rather than being really bright. Of course when I next tried to do a piece with brighter colours it looked so weird to me, like it was unreal, so I’m guessing (hoping?) that there’s a balance somewhere.

🌗 Is night or day better for drawing?
With drawing I’m kinda feast or famine. I can never just do a bit, I always wind up hyper-focused and the next thing I know it’s several hours later. I haven’t moved, I haven’t eaten, I haven’t drunk anything (not healthy I know). My watch bings every hour to remind me to move etc. and when I’m doing other things I notice and obey, but with art I just get too deep into it I guess. So basically night or day doesn’t matter, but it’s usually night by the time I stop :p

🌊 What’s the hardest thing for you to draw? 
Oh wow erm everything? :p No, no, ok hehe in all seriousness it’s faces. I suppose because it’s a mixture of problems. I want to capture the likeness but I also want to bring it to life – I want a good expression. Whenever I look at my art I feel like it has no soul – no life – and I’m fixated on the faces being the problem for that at the moment. There are probably a million other reasons too (I have sooooo far to go to improve) but for now it’s faces 🙂
