Small Hiatus

Sorry for the radio silence! I had to take a break from art/posting because I recently contracted COVID in the last week. I’m starting to feel a lot better so I’ll be back with you guys in a few days!

[genottr]

Some more sketches! I’m trying to get better at character interactions.

In Regards to Twitter...

Hi! I’m sure a big influx of you guys are coming from twitter (like I did) in response to a lot of big changes happening to the site itself. Though I’m not sure if the site will be down indefinitely, here are some other places where you can follow my work!

Cohost: https://cohost.org/genottr

I plan to make use of Telegram if you guys wanna see some of my WIP for art! But shoot me a follow on some of these other sites too! I’m gonna work on uploading my artwork over the next few days, schedule permitting.

Thanks!

Another Bad Guys Illustration I did! I was going to post it on Wolf’s Birthday (Oct. 19), but I wanted to take my time with it.

Omg I love your art

…wait Wolf has a BIRTHDAY!?!?!?

[genottr]

Yes! A few of the Bad Guys in the movie have confirmed birthdays!

Wolf’s birthday is October 19, 1991, Snake’s is July 2, 1965, and Piranha’s is December 13, 1996.

Assuming the movie takes place in 2022, Wolf is 30.

I don’t understand my tastes in fictional characters.

Art question. I’m trying to help a friend who’s trying to make it as an artist, but she gets little to nonattention and her art isn’t bad by any means. What advice would you have that could her?

Ah, this is a pretty tough question. Even I struggled with this when I first started posting online.

It's taken me some time to get to where I am, but the best advice that I can give is to keep drawing and keep posting. It may also help to learn how to curate your social media by learning:

optimal times to post for the most engagement (according to your timezone)

how to properly tag your work so people can see it

using proper phrasing for your posts (you can explain your process or just give a short blurb, just make sure it's easy for people to understand)

Social media apps are still a tool artists have at their disposal, so it doesn't hurt to learn how to use them efficiently.

Don't be afraid to put your original work out there! whether it be comics, original characters, animation materials, or just the roughest of sketches and WIPS! it's a good way to build a relationship with the people following you.

I am not sure if they do fan art, but it's one way to get "noticed" so to speak. Drawing fan art is fun for a few reasons because

people will also share an interest in what you like

it's a good way for people to understand your influences

it's also a good way to study other styles as a learning tool

Also, my one thing is that it's okay to step outside your comfort zone! but make a body of work or work on projects that speak to you as a person. Don't just make the content you think people will like, do the things that you will enjoy or care about as well. Art touches people in different ways and people can really connect to the person behind the artwork this way.

I know this is a bit general, but it's a principle I like to adhere to as I've been drawing for a long time. I hope this helps!

New Side Blog!

Hi guys! so I wanted to start fresh on my side blog too, so I deleted the old one (larimarcove) and made a new one!

https://www.tumblr.com/piranhabeach

You can follow me there! all I’ll do is reblog posts that I like to keep this page from being too cluttered!

[genottr]

if I’m going to be back on tumblr I’m committing to being as cringe as I was before I left the site 

no regrets!!

[genottr]

Some werewolf boyfriend drawings! Awhile ago on twitter these two were my subjects for Outfit August in 2019. The werewolf is Remy and his boyfriend is Sean.

[genottr]

Hi, everyone! It’s been... well, ages since I’ve last logged in to Tumblr!

To make a long story short, so much has changed in the last year with social media sites and those changes are affecting many artists in a big way. Tumblr’s where I honestly got my big start, so I want to go back to making a dedicated gallery for my artwork in ways I can’t on Twitter. I’ll still be using Twitter as a means of interacting with everyone (in the hopes it doesn’t go up in flames!)

besides social media, a lot of big changes happened for me too! I recently came out as non-binary this year and I moved to LA to do more studio work in animation. Been a bit of an adjustment period but I’m hopeful things will be okay.

That said, I can’t wait to show you guys all the art I’ve been doing! looking forward to posting here again.
