the worst feeling about trying to draw is being a mediocre artist. You realize you’re not terrible and family and friends who have can’t draw at all tell you all the time how amazing you are, but you, as the artist, have seen what amazing really is and you realize that it isn’t you.

Question about white ink

funkterror:

I honestly prefer working with just pencil or pen, I always hate drawing over my pencil sketches with black ink. I feel like what would be a nice solution considering I enjoy making my art look rough would be to invest in some sort of white ink pen so I can correct lines, lighting etc. Can anyone help me out on this one? Should I be looking for toddler gel pens or tippex pens?

This is a good question, and not one that I have been able to answer to my own satisfaction. I just bought a Sailor brand white-out/correction pen, which isn’t bad at all, but not all that useful for fine details. White ink and a brush could work too, if you don’t mind the lack of portability. I’ve also heard good things about gel pens, but haven’t really tried them out yet.
Anyway, if anyone out there has some good advice on the matter, I’d like to hear it too.

Practicing caricatures, sketched a friend of mine.I think it came out well, but it also took over fifteen minutes, so my speed isn’t where it needs to be.
