landscape struggle
I am entering my fourth year of drawing with the goal of becoming a concept artist.
To that end I wanted to prove to myself today that I would be able to do some landscape drawing that would actually look decent. I was under the assumption, that if I just spend enough time on a piece, it would turn out great.
It turns out I was wrong. after about and hour and a half, this was all I was able to cough up.
Luckily, I don’t have to be great right away, I just have to be good eventually, so I guess it’s just back to practicing for me.
experimentation
today I once again tried something new and different. I did this in about 30 minutes and I did it on the fly. I wanted to try and draw an explosive landscape, without drawing an actual explosion.
I can say that I have at least succeeded in drawing something with a bit of life to it, even if it doesn’t make all that much sense
landscapes
I have been house-sitting for my parents these last couple of days which has luckily coincided with some truly great weather.
This means that I have had the possibility to work outside, which I have not taken advantage of. As I explained yesterday, I have been spending most of my time inside working on my perspective skills.
That Is why I decided that today would be the day that I went outside and actually enjoyed the weather, by drawing this, somewhat boring, landscape from a park a couple of blocks from my parents house.
I know this is not the most exciting display, but I need to learn to do these kinds of setups, so if I can keep to my word this time, there is a good chance you will be seeing more of this kind of stuff in the future
Still working on landscapes
I’m still learning to do landscapes, do while this isn’t great, it is progress
Some times I have a hard time drawing a straight line
landscapes
as some of you might know, I have been working on landscape drawing. I try and draw daily from reference and on my downtime I look at youtube tutorials.
all of this makes me very depressed, because just I as thought I was getting Ok at characters I start on something new and realize that I suck all over again.
Hopefully this will help me become an even better drawing talent, but right now, that just seems very far off

I have a saying I have made up, that applies to drawing, It goes something like this: it is not the best drawing I have ever done, but it is a drawing I have ever done.
This saying, however clumsy it may be, is what I run this blog by.
It simply states that some days you are awesome and you create something that you can be proud of forever and some days you create a dumb spaceman that really has nothing to do with anything.
You just have to realize that tomorrow is another day and that maybe you will do better then.
