Q&A // January 2023 (Patreon)

Hey flame patrons! It was yet another lovely Q&A session, thanks to everyone who joined in the chat!

Topics covered are:

Technical: my video setup, life drawing tips, how I organize my files

My experiences with a drawing injury and how I overcame it

Portfolio tips & how I arrange my own portfolio site

How I came up with my online name & how I manage my online popularity

Tips for artists who get overwhelmed with reference, don’t know how to draw things without reference, and can’t visualize their own finished artwork during the process

Inspiration / motivation behind 3 of my favorite paintings that I’ve made

Goals: my artistic goals, tips for those just starting out, and advice for those who set too many goals and find it hard to accomplish them all

Video games and whether it’s helpful for artists to play them

Self help book tips

For the next session, feel free to drop any questions you might have into the #ask-loish channel on discord, or post it below - I'll go through them and try to answer as many of them as I can during next month's Q&A session! Also, I plan to do next month’s session on a Saturday for those who struggle to join on a weekday, so keep an eye out for more info on that!

Have a great weekend everyone ❤
