I like your pencil-y lines.

Thanks!

These are considerably divergent! I don't think I've ever seen someone with such a distinct difference between their digital and traditional artwork. Fascinating~

Digital art is very constricting to me, with traditional I feel waaaay more free.

With that look, I'm mighty tempted to just commission you traditionally, that is, if you're wanting to.

Sure, I'd be willing to take a traditional commission from you! I love the things you have me draw.

I totally feel the struggle, here. I used to hate digital drawing until I found a way to accept that I was never going to achieve the same kind of energy on a tablet that I did with a pencil, so I began making tablet strokes that were more economical... but then my pencil drawings got more economical, and what the hell, adapting to a tablet made me a better, faster artist.

Going lineless is another good way to cope, though I could never commit to it PERSONALLY. It makes your work feel so distinct from the rest of the community!

I've definitely noticed my digital way of drawing is influencing my traditional stuff. It's weird because before I did things digitally, I almost never worked with colour (I think it shows). So now when I'm drawing with a pencil, it's like I'm approaching it with big sweeps of colour...but graphite.
