just a little something i was thinking about when i said i would accept "anything" for while i was doing commissions. really... i want to try and draw everything possible at least once xD regardless of what i draw, something new will be learned and my skill will improve. the more different things that are tried, the better artist one becomes =O
its also a lot more fun than doing the same subjects over and over x3
i really dont understand the people who NEVER try anything new with their drawing xD why put limits on what you do??
i think some people are afraid to step out of their comfort zone. that is really too bad =O i refuse to be one of those artists.
I think a person who wants to be a real artist must try to draw everything. Humans, animals, big robots, landscapes. You don't have to like it - but I think you have to try.
And I don't trust 'artists' who say they've achieved everything. There's always room for improvement. Saying there's nothing more to improve is stopping the attempts to progress and that is, well, a bad thing.
Heh, sometimes the word "anything" can really mean just that... (and I'll admit there are subject matters that I refuse to draw...)
But yeah...slight joking aside, it is nice to be able to draw a large number of things. Which is why I'm practicing drawing people and backgrounds a little more now (which reminds me...I need to come up with a character sheet for my vampire boy, Tobias...). I'll move on to other subjects when I get better at those. There's no way an artist of any kind can achieve everything, like Nerri said.
It's kinda sad when you see those kind of artists, especially when they do good work. It's always the same rehashed stuff after awhile, but done well. It's like, I wanna see something totally different!
I hope to not fall into that trap and not realize it. I'd say you are doing a good job keeping out of it!
yeah D: so much skill gone into the same image just with slightly different characters and different colors xP i have no idea how they do that without getting bored.
but then those are the people who get really popular since people seem to like seeing the same things over and over...
lol, i know i always show only animals here, but be prepared for humans, cars and cities when i move my account!(may put some of these in LJ first though)

Hahaha, that is so true. Different eye colour, different hair colour, different outfits......but essentially the same.
Hmm......that part also seems to be disturbingly true. That means the logical path of this equation is we'll never be really uber popular. Then again, it's not worth having so it seems to work out in our benefit.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.
In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
This is YOUR opportunity to mock, ridicule and generally take great delight and amusement whilst poking fun at the beloved Volunteers and Staff of deviantART.
