Character progress ✨🌸

I feel this little toad is almost done 🥹

I just started digitally drawing 2 months ago.

Making characters to represent different parts of myself and this little one is child like joy and confidence 💕 I had to wear a dunce hat a lot as a kindergartner because I would stand up for the rest of the kids. The kindergarten teacher was most likely looking back very mentally unstable and down right abuse… very long and funny story. Anyways I wanted to make a positive spin on it like kid me would do. That one teacher was furious with me doing that specifically lol. I wanted to make it more like some traditional Lebanese 🇱🇧 hats … kinda like a princess vibe 🥰 I enjoy flipping insults into empowerment

My partner is an illustrator/painter and was laughing about how different or workflow and process is… apparently it’s very designer brain of me to create a color palette first. Also I only pick from that palette instead of eye dropping a color from what I’m working on 😅 I need to know I have the exact color or I get anxiety because there’s texture hue changes… 😳

... Read moreIn the world of digital artistry, character design plays a pivotal role in self-expression. Many artists, like myself, find that creating characters not only fosters creativity but also encapsulates personal experiences and emotions. For instance, my recent creation, inspired by childhood memories, represents my journey of overcoming challenges. The concept of flipping negative experiences—like having to wear a dunce hat in kindergarten—into powerful artistic statements is something that resonates with many neurodivergent individuals. Moreover, using established color palettes instead of eye-dropping hues during creation provides a layer of control and reduces anxiety related to art-making. This technique is crucial in achieving the desired outcome while maintaining a sense of calm. Just as I infuse empowerment into my artistry, many artists strive to create pieces that reflect their unique perspectives and stories. Drawing is not just a pastime; it’s a form of therapy and empowerment, allowing individuals to channel their feelings and thoughts into something visually impactful. Engaging with communities on platforms like Lemon8, where artists can share their progress and connect, enriches the creative experience. Artists can exchange techniques, gain inspiration, and support each other on their journeys. As we navigate our creative paths, let’s remember to celebrate every step, every character, and every moment of joy that comes from the art we create.
