I feel stuck at an "okay" level in art. How can I improve?
Improvement requires consistent practice, not just waiting for inspiration. Use references, study other artists’ work, and practice regularly.
Even failed attempts help you grow—just don’t stop drawing!
How do you practice anatomy? Should I use references?
Yes! Professionals use references all the time to improve accuracy and quality. Practice by studying photos, watching tutorials, and doing quick sketches (croquis).
Should I focus on traditional or digital painting?
Both are valuable. IMO, Traditional art helps build fundamentals like tonality and anatomy, making digital transitions easier.
Practicing both together can give you a solid foundation.
Which software is best for digital art: Photoshop, Clip Studio, or Paint Tool SAI?
– *SAI* is great for outlining and cel shading.
– *Photoshop* offers more tools, brushes, and effects, making it ideal for realistic styles.
– *Clip Studio* is great for comics but with tons of functions and tools.
I cannot say one is better than the other. Try the trial versions to see which works best for you!
Can I repost your artwork?
Yes, as long as you credit @SiZNArt in the description.
