As an artist, I know how ecstatic
we get from the praises of appreciative spectators, but more often than not
these people are not necessarily capable of giving productive insight or
constructive criticism simply because they aren’t artists. I’m a sketch artist,
I prefer to draw concept designs on characters to be fitted into story lines of
comics (like the stuff that you see at the end of a manga with the different
ways a character was drawn before the final draft was made). And sometimes I
wouldn’t mind getting a few pointers like “that could use a little more shading
along the…” or “nice contrast of textures,” but those are hard to come by.
With
this blog I intend to offer aspiring sketch artists an opportunity to get
feedback from a more experienced audience… fellow artists. Artists will be able
to give/receive comments on each other’s works, find their muse, and maybe even
discover new ways to draw.
I won’t
claim to be the next Pablo Picasso or DaVinci, (I really only draw manga or
western comic style like a Marvel Comic or something) but I do feel for my
fellow aspiring artists, and sometimes praise isn’t enough. So upload your
stuff and have fun.
Looking forward to it,
Alexander "XraiderX" Taylor
