Hey guys!
Hope ya'll are having an awesome Friday - mine has been pretty cool. I signed up for conceptart.org's Level Up! program at the awesome introductory rate of $49 for three months. It's basically a collection of classes/workshops designed to take your painting and concept art skills to the next level, something I've been sorely needing. I've already learned so much in just the first composition and color/light classes - the instructor is amazing, and he explains things in a way that really makes sense to me, a person who's entirely self taught. If you have any interest at all in improving your work, I highly recommend it. The money I've put down has already proven to be worth it!
Because of this, I will be focusing most of my creative energy on these classes and assignments, meaning my normal output of PERSONAL artwork will be slowed. This DOES NOT include commissions - although I may take some extra time with the YCH to really apply what I'm learning. I'm really going to be pushing myself to bring my artwork to the next level in the coming months, and hopefully you'll be seeing the fruits of my efforts soon!
But seriously guys, I can't thank you enough for all of the support you've given me. Every watch, favorite, and comment makes me so happy, and even though I'm really bad at taking compliments or replying to things, I want you to know that you're all part of what keep me going. I'm going to improve for myself and for you guys. nwn
Anyway, enough with the cheesy shit. :V Hope you guys have a great weekend!

It's good to hear you've found a skilled instructor. It can be hard to get one that both knows what he is talking about and is good at communicating it to others. I hope it continues to work out so well. All the best!

Thanks nwn I think the biggest thing for me is having a workshop totally about mechanics such as composition and lighting. I feel like there aren't any classes that really drive this stuff home or give you enough practice with these fundamental concepts. So yeah, hopefully this continues to be an awesome experience!
