Recently, my Disney prom pics where featured here- [link]
I decided to go read the comments tonight...ow.
I know they weren't all negative, but a lot were. My feelings are made of delicate butterfly fluff. Seriously. I am SUPER insecure about my art (and myself in general). I try to crawl out of my deep, dark cave and post; because I love to doodle. But apparently a lot of people (outside of deviantart) think my style is derpy and I draw faces weird.
I know Ariel and Eric look psycho, I would delete the pic but it's all over pinterest and tumblr so there is no way. I guess you really can't erase your internet footprint!
I like the kooky style I draw in. I understand anatomy and I can draw realistically. But I like wavy arms and no bones! I think it's cute. What do you think about the faces though? That's what I got most of the negative comments on. Someone said I should draw noses bigger, but I purposely draw them smaller to make the eyes look bigger. Someone else said the drawing style is very inconsistent, and that bothered me the most.
I know you can't post things online and expect everyone to like everything you do, I'm not that naive... I guess it was just a bunch of comments at once. There were some nice ones though! Anyway, I don't know what I'm posting this for, guess I just wanna hear any stories of how to not let negative critiques bother you. I'm still gonna keep drawing in this derpy style, maybe with a little more consistency...

Finally did it! I want to update it very often, hopefully won't get annoying. I'm sure I'll have questions about how to work it as time goes on.

He needs encouragement to do more work! This is one of the first pics he completely colored in Photoshop!

I swear I have A.D.D. or something. Never been diagnosed, but my attention span is practically non existent. I am reading an article entitled 'Tumblr for Beginners' and I can't even make it through that. Visual learner people!
Many people have told me I need a tumblr. I know its a blog, but Ive never been on it. Can you link me either your tumblr page or an artist you like so that I can get a better idea of what it's all about? I would like to do something that would motivate me to draw daily and I think this would be a good step. Any advice?

Apparently I don't understand how Threadless works because my design:

I am really expecting to get run over by a bus because this much good news has to come with strings. I got a daily deviation yesterday and I just learned that one of my Threadless designs won. That's $1000!!!!! You do not know how bad we needed it. God watches after children and fools.
Here's a link to the design---->

Disney Plans Beauty and the Beast Reimagining, The Beast
Source: Deadline
March 11, 2013

There's a new live-action take on "Beauty and the Beast" on the way from Walt Disney Pictures. Deadline brings word that the studio has hired Trance screenwriter Joe Ahearne to work on a reimagining of the classic tale, to be titled The Beast.

A French fairy tale with origins in the 18th century, "Beauty and the Beast" has been brought to the big and small screen time and again. Recently, 2011's Beastly offered a modern take on the story, as has The CW's recently launched "Beauty and the Beast" television series. Another, still-untitled live-action film is in the works with Guillermo del Toro slated to direct and Emma Watson attached to headline.

The new Disney version will be produced by David Hoberman and Todd Lieberman.

I remeber watching the dvd commentary in 2001 and Micheal Eisner (who is no longer with Disney) said that as soon as the technology was here, they'd make a live action version been waiting YEARS for this news.

Lets just pray its good

I don't watch a lot of anime anymore cause of time/money/interest. But I do stream old episodes of Murder She Wrote to watch while I draw. (Don't judge me) Anyway, I saw a link to this movie on one of the streaming sites I go to and thought it looked interesting. O.M.G. Beautiful story, animation, pacing, everything. Bawled at the end. Gorgeous. If you've got two hours, watch it right now.

My husband and I moved to Atlanta this week in time to go to something called momocon. We have never been to anything like that and were so overwhelmed! I got to meet which was awesome. I'm really considering doing a table at dragoncon. Do y'all think that's a good idea? I'd need to do a lot of new work. It may already be too late. I am SUPER SHY in real life, so something like that would probably be good for me! Any opinions?

My husband and I have just completed our move from Jackson Mississippi to Atlanta Georgia! Yay! Moving was super stressful, and I'm sure job searching will be the pits, but I'm really excited about the future!!

Thanks for everyone who voted for my monster Threadless designs. They didn't win, but I really appreciate everyone who took the time to vote. I'm gonna keep entering contests though. Its hard not to get discouraged, but as my husband says 'just keep trying!'

For anyone that hasn't voted on my designs, the contest it almost over! I'd appreciate any and all votes. Thanks guys!
