New Art, YEEEAH

Aug 11, 2010 20:58

My new DA art account is now up and I've been steadily moving what little original art and hundreds of faved art over. As usual when I do something new/different I'm nervous/excited. (newcomers, oh yeah, I wig a lot. Understandable to why not many people read my journals on LJ. But hey, I complain with FACTS and I like CONFRONTING my problems, no it's hardly ever the same thing twice! :D)

A lot of the characters and things I have created have an odd hold on me. I can take all sorts of crap for my fan art/fiction. After all, they aren't my characters and everyone has their own interpretation to their favorite shows/comics/etc. However, this is going to be completely raw from myself. That, and most if not all of the characters I have created are from my elementary school years. They have been with me a long time as I've critiqued them into the people they have become now.

I know they won't be perfect, hell, as characters themselves I hope they are flawed for the sake of  realism. And I know a good lot of them may still need more work... But I'd hate to think that some of these characters that have been with me for 10+ years are so bad that they need to be refined for another 10+ years. No.

That, and to my utter, UTTER suprise, I seriously have people watching me already. People who watch me for my fanart like me enough to have followed me over to my original art account. I have read and watched as artists I love/respected/known would be so upset and angry that it's always their fanart getting the most faves, that their original pieces are being ignored. I just had the mind set that I wasn't going to get any watchers for a while. After all, the most faved original piece on Lilithnanhart was 5 as supposed to the 50+ my fanart can get.

I just would hate to post my dear characters only to have these very sweet people look at them and think, "This is it?" XD

Auuugh, now that I got that out of my system I should finish my next final. I can't wait to finish some of this stuff I want to post! I'm really eager/scared to know what people think of my work!!! XD

IN OTHER NEWS:
My mom doesn't think this is funny. I am not amused with the realization of how many things we don't share in common. I'm starting to wonder if I ever do become a successful artist while she'll be really proud that I can finally pay for myself, that she won't be happy with what I might be popular for. Bwhaha~ AHHHHUGH. D8

art introspective, life
