So i recently decided to take online art courses through skillshare and domestika
and i am really excited. I have been feeling really down about my work and why i just feel..im not good enough.
it's been an awful feeling that i feel i can't produce any new art anymore. i just hate it all.

So i finally just put my foot down and decided if i get any purchases in my online shop or commissioned,
i would use the money for some classes.
and i've been browsing some, and i have found at least 5-6 classes via skillshare and 2 on domestika.
They seem super helpful too!
Once i start them I will definitely keep anyone interested, updated how great they have improved my work.

I just felt i can no longer trust my own understanding just from youtube, books, etc
because my brain hyper fixates on the wrong thing due to my adhd and i often lose focus of the actual task.

Should they keep it on display...


Good luck with those classes! I've heard good things about sites like skillshare, but I'm already in college for art so it'd be a bit overkill (especially financially) for me to try em. Lemme know how they go!


Or redecorate?

@MaxIsConfused: that is understandable.
i could never afford college or desire to go back to school in general.
school is a very scary thing for me lol.

will definitely let you know how it goes.

@Jolly:definitely! I have some in mind. Mostly with lighting and digital painting.
Tho the lighting one is a more in depth and goes into occlusion lighting and just a more in depth lighting course.
as i am struggling with half tones, and mid tones in my digital paintings and how to achieve it without dramatic lighting.
I also have a course for soft and hard edges as well as those two courses are the main ones i need to learn.

Yeah adhd is a pain. I will make a whole plan just for adhd to completely get distracted by something else
and never do it LOL
