I voted for backgrounds just because I've seen more character stuff from you than bg work. But I'd actually like to see you improve in all those areas. GET BETTER AND BETTER!

Exactly!...
Lately i've been using references for anatomy... and i felt that using them helps growing on anatomy, but somehow limited my expressions... so i decided to ask people figuring out what's missing. Maybe i should just go wild!

QUEST FOR IMPROVEMENT!!!!!

P.S. Sent you a note ^_^

I've been told to reference human faces and expressions so I have a range of expressions that I know how to draw and can possibly make more off the top of my head. Using references helped a TON with my anatomy, to the point where now I've been playing around with and exaggerating it more to make it more cartoony. I mean to post more 'doggy caricatures'!

Replied!

Oh yes i know what you mean ^_^
Maybe i shoul try that, referencing animal bodies from photos, but mixing the reference resource on faces
Of course i don't want to use references all the time, the playing and exaggerating part is the fun one!... I will get there, eheh XD

Can't wait to see more art of yours

I feel like I, personally, need to understand how to draw something realistically before I start playing around with it. I feel that especially if you plan to make art for a living, as I do, it's important to balance studying and learning with just having fun. Some people are just born designers, but I'm not. I have to practice.

likewise! I'm trying to get into commenting more.

I used to draw realist, you can see it here: [link]
(It's in my other account, i want to throw my "pro" stuff there and leave canine art here). I left realistic drawing at some point, but i want to mix both styles, kinda like *imaginism, i think that way of illustrating is awesome.
Yeah, some people's skills just amaze me O.o
That's the good thing of dA, being able to see great art
But i love your art too, everything you do seems so easily done, like you just grad a pencil and voilá! And can only do that on exceptional days

Oh good thing, i love to talk to you ^_^

Thanks, i'll have that into account

good luck improving.
it'll only make you better.
