I'm returning to drawing after years of not doing it and DA seems to be the perfect place to get warm, respectful feedback that helps me stay focused.

In my artwork, I strive for a loose, energetic line that reveals the hand of the maker. I want to get away from the old thought patterns that what I draw must be perfect - perfectly shaded, perfectly complete, cross every T and dot every I. There has to be room for interpretation.

So now I'm not striving to acheive photorealism, and look instead toward conveying an artistic impression. That's my goal. To maintain the joy of the process, and not get overly invested in end product. It's supposed to be fun!

Thanks for stopping by,
M.S. Lynch,
Suburban Angst

Been out of commission on dA

Sun Nov 22, 2009, 12:42 PM
Haven't done so much commenting and replying this week. Been busy with family events and haven't been on dA so much. I did post some old work as I came across it in my archives (shelf of junk in the garage). I've got a few more I'd like to post, if only to show the little bit of progress I've made since I originally did the work. The real crap is going to stay offline, thankfully. LOL. There are definitely different artistic choices I'd make in regard to some of these pieces, which just shows that style can change very subtley over time with the accumulation of skills.

I thank you all for the feedback on my work. I may not be able to reply to every post, but I do read and appreciate them.

Big thanks to you all for watching and for making me feel like a part of a community here on dA.

feeling guilty about not replying to everyone,
~SuburbanAngst

FYI, these two were from a graphic arts program I went to at a vocational/trade school:

Nothing wrong with doing something strictly for the joy of it - don't have to reinvent the wheel. Just here to have fun. Like my feedback? Put me on your dAwatch & let's make it a 2-way street.

Thanks. I looked at yours: the snake art and the newborn are real standouts! Keep going with the art. :-)

Thanks for the watch! I hope you don't mind that I put you on my watch list as well. Your work is lovely; I especially like the portraits you've done. I think the style is beautiful and has a lot of character. :)

It's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see.
