Two Essential Skills For Artists

two essential skills for artists

“good enough” and “fuck it”

“good enough” is when you are working on something and are happy with most of it but can live with a few imperfections, useful when needing to move on from sketch to inking/coloring or what have you.

“fuck it” is when you absolutely hate what you’re doing every step of the way but you post it anyways, very useful during art blocks.

both are useful to help you move on and not obsess over making it perfect, because art is anything but perfect, even photo realistic artists probably see imperfections that someone else might not catch 

these can also be applied to other things in life

Just a warning to my followers: I generally post cheery/sane stuff, but I occasionally might post disturbing art with disturbing themes. Not sure when, but it's a possibility. I will be sure to tag potential triggers appropriately when I do.

Not NSFW or anything along those lines, though. It's likely I will never post or draw any of those topics.
