Yeah, I usually draw in bursts.... May draw intensely for a few days and then put it away for a long time and just come back to it. I'm trying to develop a more consistent routine however.

Inspiration comes when it can. You got to know how to find a nice niche and get in your zone such as, cleaning your apartment or office space, listening to music and watching movies, what colors can active you the most.

I usually take months off from drawing to work on graphic design projects. When I come back to drawing and illustrations I never lost anything.

You have to keep practicing and teach you arm muscles the in and outs of the art you create and keep a imaginative mind turning.

i stop drawing when im in school, but by the end im so stressed and start drawing and it comes out like i havent missed a step. sometimes they come out better than before

My problems when it comes to doing work is I sometimes give myself a bunch of distractions and then another thing is I feel like I work best when everybody is asleep in my house and/or I have my own real space to do work and listen to music. I seriously hate not having my own room.

Those that have done this as a career whether through finding some kind of fulltime job or through freelancing, how have ya transitioned from going from school (or from wherever) to starting your career and getting into the business?

I'm asking mainly because I already know one thing I feel like I'm going to have to improve at is getting myself to work earlier and more often. I feel like art school has set me up to end up doing a ton of work late at night rather than during the day and that seems like something that would be detrimental to getting a career moving.

not necessarily, i work at night mainly, cuz everybody is sleep. if i was working for a studio, i wouldnt have a problem gettin up earlier, but a few of my homies that work at studios dont get to work until 10am, so :manny:


anyhoo, i was bored, was fukkin around in painter, since i just installed it, prolly wont finish this
