    Calmtober! Hey! It was great to meet you and see your work (I'm the 'Chicken in a Tree' lady). Really wishing I'd picked up some stickers and washi tape from you. Absolutely love your work and so happy that I can have a little 'fix' on here too. Your content is great! Be lovely to grab some goodies and maybe have a little catch up some time. xx

    Calmtober🍂 Hi Kriksis, I missed you while you were away. I love participating in drawing challenges! And Calmtober, I need to participate, because like I said before, the list is incredible. I already made some tumbnails, but I couldn't work on it anymore. As you said, we can always do it in other months, and mine will definitely be in December. I appreciated seeing your Art exhibition. I love the arts of all three, and one day I really want to be able to see them up close, that will make me very happy. I loved seeing that you made postcards. They’re so gorgeous! Thank you for this incredible video, I love your work. ❤️

    Hello Kriksis! Calmtober! Thank you very much for the video with the beautiful memory of visiting you and Mel at your exhibition. It was so beautiful. I love the sketches you made:). They radiate such cosiness. I especially like the sheepdog in front of the fireplace. But they are all beautiful. Calmtober doesn't sound as stressful as inktober. I don't take part in it, but it's nice to see what other artists are painting. Have a great day! Take care! I wish you all the best, Gabi♥

    Your work is so pretty and tranquil. I like being inspired by artists. But I am hesitant to create my own illustrations because I'm not the kind of person who would want to be "out there" promoting, networking, and doing shows and all that. I am such a home body, almost a recluse, and the only way I might attempt it would be through selling my original graphics on sites like zazzle or spreadshirt and such. What do you think? Thank you.

    • @kriksis

    Honestly I want to disagree with you to some extent this is just my opinion, but maybe you’re being modest about your work but you are so skilled, you don’t realise. Organic forms are difficult because they need to have a natural movement to them, and can look really stiff and awkward if you’re not skilled at it. Straight lines can use rulers. Perspective of a city scape just just know how to make a perspective grid. Animals are harder to draw because our anatomy is so much different. A horse with anatomy that it off looks weirder than a person because our brains more easily fill in the gap because it’s familiar with the anatomy.
    Your art is stunning and very skilled. Don’t forget that!
    Also, art school effs up a lot of thinking. I studied fine art at age 16. They tore stuff out of our sketchbook for being ‘too illustrative’. I didn’t know What I wanted to draw was called ‘illustration’. But they made me feel bad because it wasn’t as meaningful as ‘fine’ art and had no symbolism to it. But honestly, anyone can make an abstract blob out of a plastic bag and give it some bull connection to climate change. But knowing perspective, measurements, lighting, values, composition… that’s way harder.
