I'm still making studies of swans and wolves so that I feel able to carry out this project of mythology I've been toying with since fucking 2018.
So, yeah, more ballpoint pen drawings.
I'm also still working in the animated short film, but it's going slowly and I can't post the pics publicly. So, I'm still drawing. And, I think, becoming better. Still in mostly realistic style, but I think I need to assume that it's pretty much what I do and that I'll never be able to create crazily fantastic proportions that magically still work.
Sometimes I get frustrated knowing that I'll never be able to master all the different and amazing styles there are out there, but I seem to forget that NEITHER CAN the genius artists I admire the most. They are just incredibly good at one or two. But I mix them all in my head and I think I should be able to be like all of them put together and, well, no, that's not how it works.
Still, I should work much more and I know it. I will try.
