Default How to Art When You're Bad at Art

How to ART When You're Bad at ART; A List Compiled by an Amateur


Hello and welcome to my portfolio thread. Let me make very clear that all I claim to be is someone who enjoys mucking around creatively. I lay no claim to being good at anything. In fact, I'm sort of shy about sharing because it's just 'goofing around' for me, but some very lovely SSers have shown an interest and encouragement and, honestly, I can't take their bullying anymore. (Looking at you, Kath).

I'll be sharing some things I've been working on, and also some tips on how to flex creatively when you have absolutely no skill to do so.

So. Be kind, and be sure to visit often and wave at me, because I love to wave back.

I made my first homemade cards today, although they weren't folded and enveloped and pretty, but they DID make the people who received them smile. That's the point, yeah?

Crumpled wax paper is just like a sheet of wax paper... and you crumple into a ball. Dunzo.

I WILL SEND YOU THINGS YES.

Lesson 14: There's no wrong way to eat a Reese's

SPOILER!!: Fly away


I love a tutorial that shows you different ways to accomplish the same form, different brush strokes or strategies to try to accomplish variations on a theme. I found this cool feather tutorial with THREE different outcomes... I'll leave it up to you to pick your favorite. It's cool to know there isn't only one way to do something. Like, maybe your style is realistic, or minimalist, or fanciful, or whatever, and you can create something to meet your aesthetic using the supplies you've got.

Assuming you can find the tutorial to show you how to do it, I guess...

Lesson 15: Combine previous learning

SPOILER!!: The thing


If you remember lesson 11, I combined my galaxy and tree tutorials to get so this nightscape. I think I have some work left to get my tree technique right, and someday I will get the right paper (this stuff absorbs water too fast), but I'm very pleased with this first effort.

Lesson 16: Ogres have layers

SPOILER!!: fruits


Apparently the secret of watercolor painting is to find balance between the wet-on-wet painting style and 'glazing', which is applying a series of layers and letting them dry between. I had to use both styles of painting to make this little freckly pear. So ta-da, my little freckly pear!

Lesson 17: Cake also has layers

SPOILER!!: fleur


Hey, friends! Here's another example of glazing, with way fewer layers than in the pear. With the rose, you just paint C shapes outward from the center. Lightly, and then darker each layer. The yellow notes add depth...? That's what they say, at least.

Anyway, LOOK AT MY PRETTY NEW PAINTBRUSHES.

<3 Did you ever do this? I want to see your watercolor experimentation.


Lesson 18: Just keep swimming swimming swimming

SPOILER!!: 1


SPOILER!!: 2


SPOILER!!: 3


I know I haven't posted anything up in a VERY long while, but I didn't realize quite how long it had been. I've been painting painting painting in the interim, mostly a ton of tutorials I found on Pinterest and Youtube, and I understand watercolor a lot better than I did, although I'm not sure I can make it do what I want it to do most of the time.

But anyway, that being said, I thought I'd post a few of the things I've been working on over the past few months, a few per post yada yada. I did prompts through September and October (see my Seektober thread!), so when I was working toward a specific theme, I'll let you know.

I feel like I saw your hedgehog already (maybe on twitter?) but I don't remember if I told you how cute he was. And your unicorn is lovely with that rainbow mane

THANK YOU and thanks for visiting. The hedgehog was definitely copied from a tutorial, but the others came out of my brain!

Lesson 19: Art with a Friend

SPOILER!!: bottle


SPOILER!!: lizard


SPOILER!!: hobby


SPOILER!!: planet


SPOILER!!: building


Kath (sweetpinkpixie) enticed me into following prompts with her during September... maybe she'll be nice enough to post her finished product in her thread too. There was something really conducive to my creative spirit in having 'homework' every day and a friend to share with. These are just five random ones from that week (the spoiler tag is the prompt).

Sorry these pictures are so huge and not resized to be easier to look at, but they're straight from my phone.

It definitely started it's life as a thread for me to show my dabblings, and still is, but I sort of hope that the thread now feels like a place where people can watch what I've learned and tried out and come to believe that anyone is capable of learning. If I am... anyone really is. <3<3


Lesson 22: Follow the Leader

SPOILER!!: Rainbow Row


SPOILER!!: the blue hills


So now that I've exhausted all my September prompts, I thought I might share my current project. I've been inspired to try to work on a specific skill set for the month of November, in this case working on landscapes and scenic vignettes. Ultimately, I've always wanted to keep a sketchbook when I travel, and I want to develop the skills to be able to capture what I see.

Anyway, one of the first things I did was look for tutorials on Youtube and Pinterest that I could follow to develop some new skills. Here are two early ones.

tl;dr these are my versions of tutorials, so very much not original concepts.

Rainbow Row is in Charleston, which is ABOUT the same distance for both of us. So we can go together! I think it looks magical TOO.

THANKS FOR VISITING.


Lesson 23: Master the basics or whatever

SPOILER!!: Skyline


SPOILER!!: Field


Hey, friends! More examples from my working off tutorials and learning cool new tricks from the experts. Like how to remove color when you've put in too much or if you want to create clouds... that's a good one. Or when to bleed colors together and when you have to wait for things to dry (no, REALLY dry... I keep making this mistake with 'seems dry enough').

ANYWAY, thanks for visiting! MWAH.

OKAY PERFECT. I like this plan.

I think a couple of these little vignettes would look great on a postcard or in a little frame. I don't have an eye for tiny decorations, though, so keep these ideas COMING.


Lesson 24: Don't stress about the mistakes

SPOILER!!: Rockssss


SPOILER!!: railway bridge


More tutorials, this time two of my favorites. I can't tell you how UGLY these looked during the painting and I despaired the whole time, and then things merged and dried and they ended up looking like... purposeful and planned out. So. Don't despair?

Oh, THANK you, and thank you for dropping in to comment. <3<3<3




Lesson 25: I promise we're done with tutorials

SPOILER!!: seascape


Okay, this is my last tutorial. This one required me to trust the process, because it had a lot of little things that looked weird until they came together. I don't know how these master watercolorists can see through the steps to know what needs done for the final product, but I'm hoping I start to get that 3D vision at some point.
