I miss painting on canvas too (traditionally) but it's just not efficient now that I don't have anywhere to store them
I still have a mountain of unsold pieces. Few of them I intend to frame a hang at my own walls. But I keep delaying that. I could still store more art pieces but I don't really see a point in making traditionall physical art because people almost never buy them. So making digital art is both cheaper and saves space.
I'm also refreshing my use of brushes and techniques in digital art.
I use program called Clip studio paint. I have downloaded pretty much all the free brushes I could find. So it is a bit overwhelming but I still enjoy trying them all.
This is what I worry about too. You can't sell everything and right now we are in a temporary place, storage is a really big problem. But if you have a place honestly just continue doing it. There is always a buyer somewhere, just have to find your right audience. But I do agree, digital is a lot cheaper and you can print them anyways if you want (or redraw on canvas).
Ohh I heard about that before too but Photoshop really is just something that I gotten used to since I also use it in photography. I think Clip also have 3d? That would be nice for you to explore as well. It is indeed very overwhelming, same feeling I had when I first tried it haha probably why I didn't really like using it.
In 7+ years I only sold 5 normal pieces and 1 nft. I wanted to sell this piece to local pizza place:
But when I came in I was embarrassed to ask money for it so I just gifted it away. I guess I am better artist than I am a seller.😛
Yes, Clip studio paint has 3D figures and poses. I have done a few pieces with 3D already(1, 2,3...)
