Hi newcomers! My name is Artic!🌟
I like making stories, designing characters, and drawing my (many) OCs!
I'm working hard on making stuff that feature them, so that people can read about them someday.
Hope you stick around for the journey! Thanks for following! 🎉

The only definition of art style that has ever truly resonated with me is that your style is emergent from your accumulation of habitual mistakes and shortcuts.

PayPal has rolled out a new "feature" that prompts you to leave feedback about an artist that you've commissioned via invoice.
Whatever you do, DO NOT fill this out! To quote Admiral Ackbar, "IT'S A TRAP!!!" It is meant to misguide you.

Passion is contagious. If you wholeheartedly create what *you* enjoy, the right people will notice
I don't know how exactly but they do!
I don't know how exactly but they do!
The biggest thing i've learned as an artist who sells prints and merch is don't make what people ask for. They won't buy it. Make what you, the artist, want to see printed on the support of ur choice.
I can't explain why but THAT'S what will sell. People who buy the most are the silent ones. 🫶

Remember, artists: when people say, “I’d buy a print of this,” they don’t mean it. That sentence itself is just a weird compliment that rarely converts to an actual print sale. It’s like if someone ate a very good hot dog and then said, “I could eat 10,000 of these right now.”

Art always starts from within. It's yours before it's ever anyone else's. Feed yourself with your creations first and let those who resonate organically come to it

I used to make and sell candles. Had a few people BEG for pumpkin scented candles. I said no because I hate the scent of artificial pumpkin AND because I didn’t think they would sell.
I made 8. Three months later, had 6 left.
So yes, make wtf YOU want. Your real audience WILL find you.
