Better

It seems to me that every time I feel as though I've accomplished something with my art I turn around and see what the "professional" community does and it's like I'm still a high school student copying anime.

I mean, look http://www.conceptart.org/

I want the skills to make artworks like all those thumbnails.

I was admiring the pages I've completed for my webcomic, when I decided to google something and ended up there. I'm almost fourth year in my BFA, why can't I do that yet?

Where do I go to learn that? What program do I take? I thought fine arts was the highest you could go, but I can't do that yet.

I know I could, and I do feel like I'm getting there. I'm much better than I was when I started this program. (Much, much, much better. I can't look at my old art without suffering embarrassment.) But I know I wont be up to that standard when I graduate, and if there's such an abundance of people better than me how do I get a job? I'll need to take more supplementary education, but what program? Where?

That's what I was googling for, a program. I can't tell which ones are worth it though.

The Second Purpose of this Blog

Hi!

Er, hello again. You may have noticed (If you're one of the seven-or-so people who ever read this) that all but the first post have suddenly disappeared. That's because this is the second year of Digital, and the second year of Blog!

And also because I looked back and suddenly realized how bad those old posts were.

So now I'm going to write some better posts.

At least until next year, when I'll decide it's all terrible and DELETE EVERYTHING

(And. And! I'm going to make you pictures now!)

The Purpose of this Blog

To be quite honest, there is no great and honorable purpose behind the creation of this blog. This blog is a mandatory requirement for my digital class, a necessary evil if you will.

I realize that no one will actually be reading this, so if there are no objections I'm just going to pretend that there's a great big audience out there waiting patiently for my posts and hanging on my every word.

So, my adoring public, what can you expect from this blog? Well it'll be filled with artsy stuff from my classes, musings of my deluded mind, and probably some fangirl miscelania. Don't take anything I say too seriously, I know I don't.
