Retrospect

 I realize that it's too late to right what I've wronged. Expectations are nothing when held up against what was meant to happen. Can't stop what's coming.

Regret for what could have been is easy. Acknowledging what should have been is more constructive. Knowing what I was able to do truly from the beginning would have made for a better time this semester. Now leaves me only regret.

Feeling extra hard about things seems to be how things are at this point in time. Oh well. If that's what it takes to set things right, I'll have it that way.

    Being a graphic designer/artist myself, I have had several moments where I looked at my art and thought, "I could have done something different/better," and moments like this have been teaching experiences as it made me realize that while i may struggle at first, an idea will come to me and even if I have what i consider to be a "finished product," there will always be something that can be fixed or changed to make the piece better.

Art Software Review - CLIP STUDIO PAINT

WEEK 2 Art Software Review - Clip Studio Paint Hey there, everybody! This week I'm gonna follow up my artist-oriented tablet-review of last week with a review for my favorite digital illustration program: Clip Studio Paint. This program was already featured in plain sight in last week's Huion Kamvas 16 review, as it was the very program that I had pulled up on the screen. Since all I had used it for in those photos was one photo of a blank canvas and one VERY quick 2-minute sketch, I'll take the opportunity this week to highlight some of the great things about CSP and exactly why this is the program I use (almost) every day. To begin with, Clip Studio at its base is a very powerful and professional program. There are canvas presets that allow for simple illustration canvases, presets for professionally-configured comic pages, and animation files. Once a user has opened one of these, they are met with an intuitive interface that offers a fantastically broad range of tools, ...

Looking to Blender, Part 0 - Intro

Image
My whole life's been focused on 2D art--drawing, that is. It's been mostly traditional drawing, of course, from when I first picked up a pencil as a little squirt of a kid, up to a few years ago when I saw myself turn mostly to digital art. Regardless of the exact medium, drawing's always been my big love in art; painting, sculpture, none of it compares to just scratching out a satisfying little doodle. Of course, that points to a danger of artistic complacency. Though having taken studio classes that force me to confront different traditional media have done their work in combating this, my ultimate comfort zone has never wavered. It's hardly in my interest to keep to this one thing creatively, much as I do feel it's my mother medium. So, I'm going to go a step in a novel direction from here--I'm going to set my sights on learning the 3D modeling/animation software known as Blender. It's free to download and use, and though by all accounts it's a do...
