I like drawing and painting, but I mostly have equipment for traditional and I feel like when I try to share those works by taking a picture with my phone’s camera or something, they end up looking scuffed compared to how they look live. I don’t know if it would be a better idea to just start practicing digital or to eventually invest into a scanner so I could share stuff I make more easily.

    Buy a scanner ! Learn how to clean your drawings etc in Photoshop !

    Traditional drawing is goated dont drop it, but learn how to make it look good on a screen. Learning digital will also teach you some interesting thing, but the genesis of any project must be done on paper.

      Also you drawings could look bad on pics if your composition isnt good enough

        Oh btw, do you have any suggestions where to share my art? I doubt it’s going to be very good, but I think it would still be fun to have a place where to put it

          Uhm dont ask me that… I keep everything for myself or in my SSD since im extremely hard with myself…

          Most artist use ig, tumblr (outdated, was more the 2015-2020 era) or make a website. I hate ig but the bests indie artists are clearly here.

        Could be! I’ve taken some art courses and practiced the basics and also a little bit of perspective and anatomy, but never composition. Thanks for the advice ^^

          Composition is very important ! Even when you practice observation you should think about where you put your drawing on your sheet. Up ? Down ? Left or right ? Depending on where you want the focus to be etc. It will become natural, try to analyse how artists that you love do it. Have fun and try !
