Deviation Actions
Whenever I look at other artists' work, I can't help but compare myself to them. It seems to be a habit for me, but instead of getting me down or depressed, it actually motivates me to work on weak areas in my art.
You see, I've realized something recently. Every artist has certain 'strong points' in their art, things that they are just the best at. For example, draws the best cartoon animals I've ever seen, always puts amazing poses and action into her drawings and has an excellent sense of color theory, and 's line art is so detailed and expressive, not to mention his art has that cartoon wackiness that makes them irresistible. When we see that we need to improve on something that others have already mastered, it's not bad to study those artists' art. Also, if you want to learn how to draw animals better, or put more action in your art, find out how other artists have learned to do so.
It's kinda funny, this process. It proves that artists adsorb knowledge from each other, so we should never see one artist superior to the other. We're all trying to achieve the same goals of self-improvement, so let's be willing to share our knowledge with others, through constructive criticism, tips, and general support.
But remember, every artist is unique, and each one has their own talents and weaknesses. Our challenge is to overcome our own weaknesses as best we can, and we can do so with the help of other fellow artists. I guess we're kinda like a big family in this sense.
This was something I wanted to express, so please bear with me.

Hey doods, just a reminder that my new hangout is ~DavidBaronArt (https://www.deviantart.com/davidbaronart). If you wanna keep track of my newer pieces just head on over there!

Hi everyone! I've been meaning to do this for some time now, but I plan on having a fresh start on dA and switching to a new account. I have a few pieces already posted; my goal is to update my gallery at least once a week! Hopefully I can achieve that!
:icondavidbaronart:
I'll be checking on this old account a few more times during the next few weeks, but soon afterwards it'll be completely abandoned. If you want to
Commissions (CLOSED!)
Slots are closed for now! I'll see if I can open up again once I finish these up. Thank you, guys! <3
------
Due to popular demand (and a tricky financial situation), I’ve decided to open up commissions once again! Only 10 slots are open this time though, so first come, first served!
I’m willing to draw practically anything (including trademark characters, OCs, anthro, mecha/robots, and even smut/nsfw) except for what’s stated in the “More Info” box. Email me at davidzth13@gmail.com or send me a note or ask if you have any questions! I’m quite flexible with what I’m willing to draw, so don’
Going on hiatus again~
Sorry to say this guys, but I'll be going into hiatus for a while. I have A LOT on my plate right now, including a whole lotta paid work to finish as well as a few secret things I'm working on. I want to lighten up my workload a bit and get everything I need to do done as soon as possible, so I think a break from tumblr and dA (and the looming anxiety to regularly post stuff) is for the best.
So yeah, no new posts from me for a while! I apologize again, but yeah I kinda need this at the moment. Thank you for understanding!
Ta-ta!
