The Artist Manual

🌿Intro to Your Best Self🌿

This is a guide for all artists to improve and grow -not a tutorial on how you should be.

Here I provide critiques and give you tips to help you overcome any habits that need tending to.

I will also post chapters of tutorials upon commenters request and as well as host occasional contests for all the lovely communities' artists.

To get a critique you must fulfill the following:
-have the specific piece of your art posted
-tag me in the chapter it is posted in
-you may tag me in as many as you like or if you would like for me to do a Summary Critique of all your art and style overall please let me know and I will provide a chapter for you

•know that I'm very busy -it may take me a couple days to respond with a chapter with a critique, but know I will respond no matter how long it takes

•Summary Critiques are a special type I like to give out that requires for me to look at all your art overall and to oversee any repetitive habits or things you could improve overall. These types of critiques requires much more rounding of specific details, which means these will be a little more blunt than normal critiques and take more time.

•you do not have to ask me for permission in the comments for a critique, just tag me in a chapter if you want one

Asking for a tutorial:
-you may simply just comment whatever you have trouble with drawing [be specific; e.g. how to draw hands, how to draw certain anatomy, how to color or shade, etc]

•know that I am a growing artist too, some things I may have trouble explaining, but I will use all my resources to explain to the best of my ability

Other things that will be held here:
-I will hold occasional contests to test your improvement and to simply bring some fun to the community
-I will occasionally post timely art challenges, in which gives you a challenge each day to draw
-I am currently planning and putting together a monthly Art Olympics, a very exciting project that will surely test artists and put them to use the best of their abilities and have some good old fashioned peer racing with very awarding and grand prizes. To come soon!
-I have a love for color palettes, so that will definitely be an item I will post here, you may also suggest and submit color palettes to me for posting

Thank you so much for reading and please do submit your art to me for I love seeing people's creations.

Also, it would be greatly appreciated if all of you could please share news of this book and even give a shout-out to spread knowledge of it. I want to help as many people as I can and that starts with you helping that come true. Thank you!!
