Thank you for kind words again Mike
I need to sort out your thoughts a bit, though
First was the photography, it's started when I was 8 and was given Sigma 8 (coincident ?
).
Since then photography is a great part of me, always as an enjoyable hobby, though.
I never was enthusiast to the drawing though
It was something easy to do for me, some sketches, drawings for friends or as a homework for school
That was a time of no internet, no social media, nobody could see my drawings, no interest at all
, no any friends or art groups to join around ...
Photography on the other hand was opposite.
I was taking camera with me while going places, I joined local photography group, I was happily taking photos, and it was something where I could release some creativity...
Nobody was ever interested in my drawings,but photos instead
Thus I was never after to study drawing you see
As you know it's started in 2015 when my sister requested to draw memorial of her bellowed cat...
I posted it on my fb page, I received many likes, and this experience did trigger/awaken the will to improve my drawing...
The internet did take greater part in it, and helped me to learn by watching tutorials, and so on...
So it's sorted out - the history of mine in short, lol
Regarding to - dispiriting
No having any experience other than graphite drawing,probably did lead me craving to explore something more than b&w arts only
I wanted to try using colours - seeing beautiful arts of other artists...
Unfortunately every each time I started practicing new medium - I also started revealing its weaker points, that weren't suit me
Unfortunately those "points" were causing me to leave it,and look for some other medium to try Mike
Therefore nearly for each year I was practicing new medium?!
I guess this is how I'm getting some knowledge and experience, and the more mediums I know, the better I can recognise which one suits me best?
Do I stick to digital arts,or pyrography for longer?
I can't tell yet, but what I already know,is that the digital media is giving me everything at one place, and I never felt like this before.
Pyrography is very intriguing too, it's monochrome like the graphite drawing, but there's something beyond that
, and that's attracting me a lot
Saying that, I can appreciate now, how universal and stunning the graphite drawing is!
So simply medium, but it's amazing at the same time
The above might be the answer why I can't succeed as a full time artist
Instead of focus on one medium to master, I'm jumping around like those frogs you was watching this morning
.
, no any friends or art groups to join around ...
