Full title: Art Ideas for Artblock So, these are just a few things I have learned in the past few days. YES. The past few days. 1. Look up this exactly “Cool poses to draw” If it says at the bottom it is copyright DON’T copy or trace it. But if it is ok to copy, trace, or draw close to the same thing. Go for it! Listen deep when I say this. Tracing. Isn’t. Bad. Sometimes. If the artist says it’s ok to trace their art TO LEARN off of it. Then go right ahead! The only bad way to trace is to say it is your own. You need to properly credit the owner of the original piece. 2. Find inspiration! Go look around p1nt3st, google, or whatever browser or apps you use. Search up things you are interested in! For example: If you are interested in WOF, go search up some WOF stuff! Can’t draw dragons? Humanify them or make them cats, dogs, etc.! (Humanify is not a real word. It is my way of saying turn them into humans/humaniods) 3. Look at tutorials on yt or other watching platforms. Tutorials are a great way to come up with ideas you can draw on your own! Especially if the idea you want IS the tutorial! 4. Trace. Now, I know what you’re thinking. “Ginger! Tracing is bad!” SOME tracing is bad. Especially if you try and pass it as your own. There are Do’s and Don’ts to tracing. Do’s: Ask the original artist if they are ok with you tracing their art. If they aren’t, don’t trace. CREDIT the original artist if you post it online. Don’t: Pass it on as your own, trace it when the artist isn’t okay with you tracing, and especially do NOT sell your copy of their art. It’s VERY disrespectful and could get you in trouble. ALL of these bad things can get you in trouble. Don’t think “Oh I’m on an alt account, I’ll be safe.” NO you leave a digital footprint wherever you go. Whether on the same device or different device. Guest page or not. It tracks what you do. 5. Anywho off of that darker topic. Have fun! If drawing is stressing you or you feel like it’s making your mental, physical, or emotional health worse. STOP and take a break. Doesn’t matter how long or short it is. All that matters is that you heal. If drawing is fun for you, let your imagination go wild! (Nothing inappropriate though) make your characters have fun! 6. Not able to make a character? Look on yt for pause challenges! There are plenty out there for you to explore and mess around with! Not able to find a specific one you like? Mix some up or make your own! I’m pretty sure you’ll have a good idea sooner or later.
:D Comment about your creation or link it! I would love to see what inspired you! Might make a thumbnail later.. Yes it is 11:26 PM, so what?
