ignore the little “w” in the corner – i was experimenting with something.

i spent twenty minutes on these three letters give me notes please

(requests are open, if you like my work!)

hi i drew a person :)

Do you take requests?

yes, i do, in fact! i’m pretty sure i have the request guidelines up, but those are a little confusing – i’m working on editing them.

is there anything you’d like to see done?

So over the past week or so, I’ve done over 200 calligraphy requests–and trust me, I’ve counted–and so I decided to make a patreon! If you’ve liked what i’ve made the past month I would really appreciate if you even just donate a dollar, or maybe want a physical copy, want the words to be in a spiral pattern, or even want something longer than the word limit I’ve set on here feel free to check it out! I’ll also start putting patron-exclusive pieces up there as well

and tbh, i will take much more time and care for pieces people are paying me to do, doing it and redoing it until I’m satisfied rather until it’s finished so the quality would be better

tl;dr if you like my calligraphy please check out my patreon! thanks!

the link is here!

ps here are some of the ones i like best!

check out my patreon

became a she-ra stan while i was gone

(requests are open, if you like my work!)

things i did that forced me to be a better artist:

used a reference for everything

thinner line art (you think thats thin? go thinner….)

sketch, then do a cleaner sketch, THEN start finalizing

THUMBNAILS

color research, picking a set palette or light/dark for each work

you like that pose? redo it one more time

USE A DAMN REFERENCE

do not rely on stylization as an excuse for anatomy

draw the goddamn background you coward

just draw the hand- a bad hand is better than a hidden hand

the rule of thirds WORKS

take a considerable break between sketch and lines/paint

know that art takes longer as you get better at it

draw the seams on clothes

stop aiming for accuracy and focus on fluidity and motion, accuracy will come with practice of those two concepts

just…do the chiaroscuro. just DO IT. no excuses it always works

stop making excuses, make yourself an art schedule/set weekly(or daily) art goals and just DO IT.
