Hey all! Just a reminder that HTFYA is today!
The prompt this time was a doozy: "Jack reached the edge of the castle tower just as the griffin was swooping low. If he missed, there would be no way he'd survive the fall. Swallowing every ounce of his courage, he leapt..."
We’ll be getting started at 2pm MDT : )
Anyone can join! You can find it here: https://www.youtube.com/live/xCBJHHrJAWw?si=k2pTcX7exc6wWz1t
Hope to see you then!
New podcast episode out today!
This time, we field some excellent questions from our listeners: Do I need to learn digital art? How can I get excited about my work again? Am I ready to be a full-time artist?
Plus, plenty of banter
Find the episode here!
@von_Nimmermehr So far we are thinking it would be in 6 or 12 week blocks. It would be for all levels within the curriculum.
Please upload your submissions for the May How To Fix Your Art Livestream here by May 1st. Post only finished pieces here (create your own WIP thread if you would like feedback). Please include your first and last name in the file name before uploading your illustration. Anyone can submit work!
Before beginning, please read the whole prompt by visiting SVSLearn.com/fixyourart or the How To Fix Your Art course shell.
Only submit if you are OK with our judges potentially critiquing and altering your work during a public livestream on YouTube, which will be recorded and added to our website.
We do not own the rights to your work, you do! But we reserve the right to publish your work on our online platform SVSLearn.com, and its associated email list and social media.
@Jeremiah-Ashcraft We are locking down details and will hopefully be starting a test run soon (within the next 2 months). Keep an eye out!
@Jessie-Oliveros no, this would be an upgrade to your subscription because we have to pay the teachers for their time and attention. : )
@Julia-Hegetusch we are hoping to bring back the portfolio reviews. They will probably be offered for a single week instead of an ongoing sign up. That way teachers can just free up a full week and do nothing but crits and really focus on it.
Hey everyone,
We are finally wrapping up our foundation curriculum and wanted to ask about your interest in taking the foundation classes with an instructor to guide you and give feedback. The basic idea is that you would turn in your work from the foundation classes weekly and the instructor would offer individual feedback and draw-overs to help you really get the most out of it. In addition, the teacher would offer a zoom meet up every few weeks too just to have some face to face time.
This model tends to work well because it allows teacher and student to interact without being in the same time zone, etc. The teacher would serve as a mentor for getting you through the classes with the best possible outcome.
Let me know your thoughts and interest!
Cheers,
