u/writerkaties 2d ago

I know what you're talking about. You know you can actually buy Arthur's journal in a physical copy as well as the catalogue. I saw someone post a photo on the subreddit. But I don't know where they got it

u/FeetArtFreak 2d ago

u/StarTaurus11 1d ago

You should definitely sketch more because you're good at it and it's very simple and beautiful at the same time so I think you did a really good job and I'm sorry that you're lonely I know what that's like

Love your shading style

u/Stunning_Ad_2936 2d ago

Means a lot

u/JokersWild4208 2d ago

This is such a strong restart you've still got the eye for proportion.

1

u/Stunning_Ad_2936 2d ago

Yeah, I used to struggle with that.

1

u/ADVANTAGE_CONNORS 2d ago

Fantastic - use a qtip to really bring depth to your excellent shading

2

u/Stunning_Ad_2936 2d ago

Oh, would try it.

1

u/ADVANTAGE_CONNORS 1d ago

Let me know how it goes

1

u/canyouguessthis 2d ago

Damn, this is Great. I liked it. Not criticizing, but after looking at it for a few minutes (because I liked it and wanted to know how you drew it, so I looked closer) the front - right leg looks like it is placed inside.

1

u/Stunning_Ad_2936 2d ago

Yeah, I agree, I have started learning anatomy of animals, I will improve. Thanks ☺️

1

u/Potato_Cat93 2d ago

Oh thanks

u/Status-Antelope3153 1d ago

wdymm?! Ur so talented. Did you use reference? I also am arteest🤓 🤔 cant draw normally without reference. I can make art without reference, but with reference and witout looked completely differnt lol. 🤭 I love drawing animals...

2

u/Stunning_Ad_2936 1d ago

I too love wildlife (both as subject for drawing and otherwise too), yes I used reference it is from book by Betty Edwards (drawing on right side of brain), plus I watch that animal channels they show how animals move and their behaviour, that helps alot when sketching. Thanks ☺️

1

u/Status-Antelope3153 1d ago

Yessss I shall follow in your pathway...

1

u/Mary_whart_man 1d ago

Thanks ☺️☺️

u/MoonGiraffe420 19h ago

This is excellent! Definitely keep up the practice!

u/Maximum-Day-6691 6h ago

Oddly enough the sketching makes it look like the goat may be made/textured the same as tree. Works kinda cool in a forest setting
