SVS Virtual Studio SEPTEMBER 2022
-
I've been working on this page for a while now. It's getting there slowly but surely. Every time I dedicate an hour I can really see myself getting closer to completing it but I find staying motivated difficult.
Lately I just want to go off and paint my own personal work for fun lol. This is something I really need to work on (developing volition) to complete the things I actually need to get done. Part of me is also worried that once I finish it, it won't live up to my hopes and I think that is subconsciously slowing me down too.
Anyone have any tips on staying motivated or forcing yourself to push through?

@Mary-Toth oh I can SO relate!
Sometimes, when I just have to buckle down and do it (usually a deadline is involved), I give myself a "carrot". A reward at the end of the illustration/task/project for getting it done.
That usually works the best for me.

Made this example of a WPA poster for my students. We are going to be making posters like these to learn digital art.

@Kim-Rosenlof Thank you!

@Melissa_Bailey Love the softness of the piece! (And the earthworm XD)

@JQ thanks so much! The earthworm was a fun little detail to add.

My little guy had his first day of kindergarten today, and my momma heart is both bursting with joy for him, and so sad to not have my sidekick at home anymore.

@kylebeaudette Hey Kyle, Just looking at, and enjoying your work as usual, but I'm wondering do you do any pencil sketching first? Looks to me like you just go right in with ink, quill pen or other?
