Really nice improvement on your digital rendering for the last piece compared with your previous digital characters! (umm, I hope I'm not being dumb right now and this really was a digital piece). I really like how your digital pieces still feel very traditional in their rendering. Is this something you try to do intentionally or is it just because you have trained as traditional artist and paint in a certain way?
This is a very real fear I am afraid, and I have in the past lost my enjoyment of art because of hyper-focusing on improvement alone. I think it takes a healthy balance between improvement and enjoyment in order to have a sustainable way of getting better at art or anything else. If you are doing this for a hobby then more power to you. I can tell from your pieces that you spend a lot of time on your work and really enjoy it.
