Why I Stopped Resenting My Creative Process| Sketching Japanese Storefront| Urban Sketching
Переглядів 27221 годину тому
I saw my process of going through thumbnails and sketches before attempting the final work as a sign of my lack of skills for a long time until I realised even professional artists have their own process. That stopped me from equating having a creative process to my skill level. I'm also going to paint an easy ink-and-wash painting of a Japanese storefront to take a break from the usual panoram...

Have you ever avoided drawing or painting certain things or subjects because you feel that it's too complicated and you would fail to produce a perfect work of art?

    I too have struggled with the concept of making quick wobbly lines for a loose appearance. However, I am a Virgo and a die-hard perfectionist and to be honest, like the look of more intentional lines in my artwork. Beautiful painting!

    • @UniquelyChie
      @UniquelyChie 8 днів тому

      That was what I realised too! I have since found artists with very detailed paintings and I love them. So much to see in just one painting and I then realised there is nothing wrong with details.

  • @shadowguard3578

    Incredible work, I love this! I’m embracing my need for detail in my art. I’ve tried and most times failed when painting in a loose style. Even when I paint or color florals with coloring pencils, I prefer to paint or color one flower with detail, depth, and dimension, than struggle to paint a bunch of flowers in a loose style.

    • @UniquelyChie

      That is what I decided after a few failed attempts to paint loosely. I love details and I love paintings with plenty of details and I think there is nothing wrong with that. You do it your way and there is definitely value in that :)

    I’m an intermediate amateur artist and I avoid videos and advice on finding one’s style. Practicing is more important than finding one’s style. How I paint naturally and comfortably (which is semi realistic) is my style. I love your line and wash art. I’ve been avoiding detailed buildings and I think line and wash for architecture is spot on. I’m in the process of drawing and painting some buildings in line and wash, otherwise I can’t see how I will manage to capture the details. Thank you.

    I like your painting a lot and recognized Our Ladys Church at the first glimpse (I live not far away). It’s great, how you choose other colours than the original and still catch the scenery and mood (even more so than sticking to the photo). I am not brave enough to do so but I will give it a try. Thank you for the inspiration!

    • @UniquelyChie
      @UniquelyChie 4 місяці тому

      Thank you! I always experiment a little for each painting I do and with this one I was trying out the idea of different color combination. Most of the time I am not brave and in that case I will do a color thumbnail to find out if my idea works.
