Looking around the forum's artist portfolios really got my gears turning... And I was wondering, is there a rising artist you know (music artist, digital artist, traditional or otherwise) that is either just starting out, trying to evolve or just needing a little "oomph" in general? Then please, please @ them in this thread, or if they're not on LV, link them to this. This is a thread for posting art positivity to a friend, an LV member who's art seems to be growing, an anonymous person or anyone you feel may be needing a little happiness in steps towards their goals. No more "but I can't draw" or "I wish I could draw"'s here!! We're going to make sure no one stops reaching for their creative dreams. Feel free to tag someone to keep this thread going, if you don't want to, you don't have to. I'll start. @[member="tonochi"] , I was looking at your art this morning and it's what really got my gears going to make this thread, Your art actually made me smile because I could see you were aware of your place in art right now, and working so hard to grow and get even better. Never lose that passion! You're doing awesome buddy! Don't let anyone tell you otherwise, I see so much potential in you! I love how much thought you put into what you're trying out. Please keep it up, never lose hope. < 3
@[member=Vaporstar4x4], Your art is truly amazing! You know a lot on drawing wolves and Sonic characters! You've also done an excellent job on shading the characters and knowing where their shadow reflects are at from the sun of the background. Keep up your amazing art skills Vaporstar!
I would like to tell a close friend of mine to keep doing well in your music man! For those who don't know who in taking about, I know a guy named Ironsmith. He's made lots of great music, and even did a commission for Mega's fic. He's very talented with this kind of stuff, and deserves the best for it https://ironsmith.bandcamp.com
@[member="Cadbberry"], your art's progress and improvement truly shows. I'm really glad you always share what you're drawing with LV, and please never be afraid to keep streaming. I can't wait to see what your art will become from here on out really!
Shoutout to my friend @[member="Salad"] for their amazing expressions and vibrant colors! It's really easy to see how much progress they made with their comic, Smoggy Skies, between the first few pages and the most recent pages. I love their art a lot, and I'm glad they're sharing it with LV!
Mega props to @[member="IceyEmmy"] for drawing at the best of her abilities! Emmy, your work has so much potential and vivid ideas woven in. I love your work!
@Arod Even if you don't feel like it, I can assure you your art is super great. Keep going and practicing and you'll get even better! @Negative Zero I don't know if you're still making those Accelgor drawings, but man you should. You're super positive and inspiring and really awesome.
@Morgaine Your art has improved so much in such little time. It’s very inspiring. Also your shading really fools me sometimes and I have to do a double take because it looks a lot like the original art @Skullbash same with you. You’ve improved quite a bit in a short amount of time. @Barandofl Im so proud of you for drawing even if you feel like you’ll get no where with it. One day at a time. @Blair_Chandaza im so glad i get to see your art. You have such a unique style. @Wolfey i love your use of colors so much. @SkittleBox dont listen to what anyone else says. I love your cartoon style so much. I immediately look at it and know it’s your art @luxuryluxray your art is so cute and pleasing to look at. You will teach me your ways one day.
