By drawing knights and angels! These two projects taught me to value ideas over execution and to make what I unashamedly find cool. It's a mindset you can (and should) apply to any project of yours(Tbh idk the name. Any ideas?)
It's mixed media! Good eye I hate doing lineart digitally. It's a lot more comfortable and faster to do it by hand. I then scan the drawing and render it accordingly. It comes with the issue of me not knowing what to do with the original ink pieces. I have them all.
Since kindergarten, and I was always perceived as "rlly good" by my peers. I took it more seriously at age 14, when I joined deviantart and realized I could be much better at art. I went through a lot of phases as well! (some which I miss)
