This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed 🎨

Rules

AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).

Nudity: Nudity is and has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude subject matter.

Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.

Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.

Right now I am using ink, markers, and paper.

I’ll see if I can gather up some figure drawings.

Below is an example of what I am drawing at the moment.

I try to draw fast and without too much hesitation (unless I am being very deliberate, my practice to date is mostly figure/ gesture drawings)

These are really nice! I like the cartoon style. I think the work would benefit from cleaner linework.

My workflow is to draw pencil outlines, ink over, then erase. I'm trying to lean less on the pencil for detail and go directly to ink, but that's for the future. Inking is always done very carefully and slowly -- if there's speed, it's at the outline stage.

I use a fine propelling pencil for outlining, and a Rotring Isograph (0.1 mm nib) for inking.
