80's movies everyone needs to see!

Oct 30, 2018

Fan Art Week Hi Everyone, as part of Fan Art Week, I wanted to go over some must-see 80's movies. I have to say, making this list was much harder than I expected it to be since I originally wanted it to be much shorter. Apparently there were just too many good 80's movies to keep this short. So, if you have some time to waste and don't know what to do, here is a handy dandy list of movies to watch. If you've already seen them you can spend that time creating fan art of these movies instead. 80's movies could always use some more love! Action: Die Hard The Terminator Top Gun Beverly Hills Cop Indiana Jones Lethal Weapon Full Metal Jack

How to stream your art! And benefit from it.

Sep 3, 2016

Has any of you ever thought about streaming their art on Twitch creative? But something keeps you from it. I certainly recommend trying it! The audience on Twitch Creative is generally very encouraging and supportive. You can grow your art-skills, get tons of work done, broaden your social circle, broaden your audience and if you like, even earn some money to buy food for your pet. Here are some great benefits to streaming your work, in terms of skill development. :bulletblue: 1. It keeps you from getting distracted by external things (Like social media, Youtube, gaming, procrastination etc). :bulletblue: 2. It expands your social circle

Stop the fade: Protecting your work.

Aug 1, 2015

Traditional Art Week You’ve just photographed or scanned your latest masterpeice and uploaded it to deviantart.com and the comments and favorites are rolling in. The image of your work is saved forever in digital form, but what about the work itself? How do you protect the original from a flakey, faded future?\ What follows are the basics with some *bonus* traditional artwork by your fellow deviants. by marcellobarenghi (https://www.deviantart.com/marcellobarenghi) Light The number one cause of faded, bland paintings is light exposure. It’s common knowledge that light from the sun causes skin damage. In the same way, when light hits a painting it causes damage. This can

The Key to keeping yourself motivated properly.

Jul 6, 2015

Let me start off with telling you what motivation is and why you need it. A motivation is a reason behind doing something a certain way to work yourself up to a certain goal. Just having a goal but no understanding of how to get there, means you have no way to motivate yourself and your goal will be hard to reach. Therefore motivation is needed desperately in order to become truly good at something. The motivation to eat is the feeling for hunger and the end goal of ending the hunger and feeling healthy and energized. This type of motivation is a feeling. Which brings me to: Intrinsic motivation and Extrinsic motivation. Shortly explaine

Stale pizza, a story about commissions.

May 24, 2015

Art in the Professions Imagine, if you will, eating the same food for years. Is it lobster? Is it macaroni and cheese? Pizza? Sushi perhaps? Now imagine it on the first day. Imagine it on the fourth day. Imagine it on the forty-forth day. Then the ritual turns into months upon months, until finally the years are a blur. Would pizza be a prize or a punishment, after years? My thirtieth commission was what they had all been, women in peril. The stage and script were identical: elbows tight, chest out, a nefarious beast with the damsel sporting an occasional look of panic or pleasure. The money was good, the clientele nice and the at

Professional Art: The Day to Day

May 22, 2015

Art in the Profession The most important part of being a professional artist is being able to advertise yourself and your art. Being able to market yourself is immensely more important than any amount of talent and artistic experience you have. Even the most talented artist ever known would not be able to make a living as an artist if they made absolutely no effort to promote themselves. In fact, advertising yourself and promoting your art will make up for a very large chunk of your day to day life as a professional artist. Think of your art as a product to be sold -- no one will know what you can do, unless you show them! But how should

Beginning Your Professional Artistic Journey

May 21, 2015

Art in the Professions So you're dreaming of the day when you can stay home and draw the hours away, without a care in the world. You're looking at artists who have made names for themselves, with a pit of envy in your stomach. You know you could make it as a professional artist, if only you knew where to start! But the idea seems pretty daunting at first. But with a bit of planning, you can begin your journey as a professional artist. Be ready for long hours, daily drawing, and lots of marketing! Being a professional artist takes more than simply opening up commissions and waiting for clients to shower you with money. It takes planni
