Here is part 1 of my inktober2023 pieces days 1 - 3. I plan to get back on track this weekend however I have been a busy fox with fall arriving so we'll see what happens! So here is Dream, Spiders, and Path!

i hate that every time i look for color studies and tips to improve my art and make it more dynamic and interesting all that comes up are rudimentary explanations of the color wheel that explain it to me like im in 1st grade and just now discovering my primary colors

[gayvampyr]

“red and green are opposites 🥰” cool now how do i paint a tree with pinks and blues without it looking like a child’s finger painting or incongruous blobs of rainbow vomit

[gayvampyr]

ok i can’t explain it very well but im looking for tips and techniques for rendering art like

with specifically the highlights and colors being hues that compliment each other, don’t distract from the scene, and make it more interesting/visually appealing

is it too much to ask

[moreclaypigeons]

gonna drop some sources I have saved on Pinterest! I don't know if these all link back to the original sources so apologies for that

cohesive but still contrasting

This kind of talks about color and composition

This is a bit about landscape specifically

Values & composition

Contrast in composition

Balance in colors & values

This one's more for palette building but I think it's useful and can be applied to the other ones

Cohesion within compositions/lighting

"Chromatic fringe" - I also see people using this with shading, they bring in a transition color that is a different hue than the base color or shadow, it makes it so that less vibrancy is lost and it doesn't get muddy!

This one specifically has a lot of process behind the style of painting you're looking for!

Also one of my favorite artists who makes bright and colorful art like this is Not Sorry Art on TikTok & YouTube, her website is here and it's<3 my fav. She has some videos where you can see her process

With the oranges painting you put as an example, I noticed they painted the lighter values more toward yellow - they also exaggerated the hues of the undertones of the photo, so I'm guessing they either did it in their head or bumped the saturation up to get a closer look! I really love these paintings you shared and I definitely share your desire to paint/draw like that :)

hey followers. have you ever wanted to know how it feels to be inside a bag of cornflakes

[officialtokyosan]

ye

[vaporwavesimulator]

enter the cornflakes domain

[runby2]

I fucking hate this website because not only did I click this goddamn link expecting it to be a joke of some sort, but it wasn’t a joke and I sat here spinning the screen around enjoying myself in a stupid bag of cornflakes like the dumbass monkey I am on Tumblr.com, enthralled by being in a bag of corn flakes in

[sweatermuppet]

a way to stop being disappointed or embarrassed by your idols is to stop idolizing people. hope this helps

???-DENDEVID [Dent de Lion-Endiv] -Grass/Normal -The Field Mouse Pokemon -Ability: Seeder* -Dex: “Despite its small size, a single one of them grows enough seeds to fill a whole field with flowers. The flowers it leaves behind are said to enrich the soil they land on, making any crop growing there bigger and healthier. Among farmers they are often known as ‘Life Bringers’ and are considered a good luck charm.” -Moveset:     -Seed Bomb     -Bullet Seed     -Leech Seed     -Grassy Terrain *When a pokemon uses a move that causes wind to blow this pokemon will disperse its seed across the field. This pokemon defense will go down and speed will go up. If there are other Grass pokemon on the field seeds will land on them and their HP will be restored by ½. If Grassy Terrain is active the HP will be fully restored instead. The moves that trigger this ability are: -Aeroblast -Defog -Fairy Wind -Gust -Hurricane -Icy Wind -Ominous Wind -Silver Wind -Tailwind -Twister This pokemon is inspired by Field Mice playing on Dandelions

No bragging, just 100% floored and grateful. Work hard, maintain a positive attitude, and believe that anything can happen.

[virgocity]

So I reblogged this exactly a week ago because I thought it was funny and uh lo and behold, a family friend wrote me a big ol’ check just to help me out of a tough financial spot AND my bank refunded me $32 for fees they’d originally taken out. SO UH YEAH. Reblogging this again in hopes that it brings equally good fortune to my followers.

[penprp]

Sure why not? Jobs bring in money and prosperity…
