I'm my own worst critic. Yes indeed. by GingerOpal, journal

I'm my own worst critic. Yes indeed.

Oct 26, 2014

So I've been feeling stuck. I've felt this way for years, actually. I know very well that while my art is good, it's not really great. I just can't seem to achieve a "professional" look. What is it about my art that keeps it from looking professional? What can I do to improve it? I spent thousands of dollars and hours at university trying to attain an attractive style, and although my skills were enhanced there, the attractive level of my art appears to have stayed the same. Professors looked at my final works and said they were great and there's nothing they would change. That sounds nice, but yet they never invited me to submit my art in

Moving On!

0 min read

Hey y'all, I'm so sorry I've been absent! I guess I've been falling away from this side of the interwebs. Forgive me! So I'm getting ready to launch my comic *finally* First I'm going to get through a six month vocational school for programming and web development and I'm soooo excited! But in the meantime I'll be posting preliminary sketches and previews until I get the site up and running. I think I'll have to let my dA die though, I'm just not on here enough at all! Follow the comic on Facebook! https://www.facebook.com/gryphonseye/ and Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/the_gryphons_eye/ and Twitter! https://twitter.com/GryphonsEye

I did indeed get a tumblr

0 min read

I gave in! But the majority of my art will still be posted here; my tumblr is called "You Know You Married a Cop When..." and it's going to be about the crazy life of being an officer's lady-wife (as he calls me now that we've been watching Game of Thrones :giggle:). Please check it out! http://you-married-a-cop-when.tumblr.com/ There's only one on there right now but I've got a nice long list of things I'd like to draw for it, so I'm hoping to update it fairly regularly! Like, you know you married a cop when you spend your first Valentine's Day as a married couple doing a ride-along because he's working, so you have to spend your time wat
