Darktiste, i will say to you the advice i wanted to be said to me a few years ago and i would be right now a bit more advanced on my artistic path;
- Don´t fear your weaknesses, don´t fear failing, embrace it, the failings of today will be your experience of tomorrow artisticwise. Be persistent, do 100 bad drawings/ studies but put yourself on the battlefield, 1000 bad drawigs if it is what it takes to remove bad work from your system.
- I wish i hadn´t been  fearful in my transition from traditional to the digital painting realm, i wish i didn´t make excuses on why i would not need practice in digital painting/fundamentals.
I can´t change the past but i can change the future.

If it encorages you, i´ll show you one of my first digital paintings and how bad it sucks.


Hard work dude Cheers!

The problem with creating drawing that are bad is that it chip away your confidence and to create good drawing you need to be confident or you get easly derailed when sh1t it the fan.It not easy to push through a bad drawing but you eventually learn that you can fix your drawing sometime.The problem is when you work destructively and you don't create safety net in a digital medium if you fail at certain stage of a drawing.It important to create those safety net and that what i am trying to fix.

Digital paint is much more forgiving in term of error making but traditional drawing is what create confidence in your own skill because it remove the digital assistance.
