@Mandy Amour: Oh yeah the fact that we need criticism to get better while being extremely scared of being hurt by said criticism is something I still struggle with.

It takes abit to get used to drawing digitally but its like riding a bike, you will never forget it and you can only get better at it with time XD Its just muscle memory, I wouldnt say its a horrible experience. The tools you have though with photoshop and other drawing programs are far superior to traditional. It streamlines alot of things and no paint to cleanup yaaaay!!

I have this uncle who is over 60 years old who learned to use digital after a lifetime of traditional art. He says digital drawing is too easy and its not real art like WTF dude?!! I felt all huffy and pouty afterwards! XD

@kiwi: Haha aww thanks man! I don't know if I am looking at it the right way but its my current view of art. I am looking forward to seeing your interview too cos I am confident you are gonna win the featured artist spotlight soon! XD

@Mandy Amour: Artists understand each other, we all have been discouraged seeing other people's art. But like I said, art is just a language the important part is what the words are trying to say It's not about the size, its how you use it

There are cheaper tablets now, I hear Huion is a good brand to look up. You can get a decent one for less than $100. Think of it as an investment, I have saved so much money on art supplies by going digital XD. "This ad is brought to you by Huion. When there's something strange,...that you wanna draw. HUION gonna call?!?!" *cheesy smile*

@Mandy Amour: Aww I like you too

@kiwi: If you win the trophy you will be interviewed by the VAG mag and be featured on the front page and feel like a celebrity. Its a great prize! XD

@Mandy Amour: Honestly, your art is super unique and I have never seen anything like it. You may not be able to do what I do but I can't do what you do either. Don't let that hold you back :vanora_smile: Besides I have seen your traditional work and you are definitely not an amateur.

I have a Beach Background, 2 Hula skirts, Big Bang (fireworks), Papa's lil angel, Sea Witch, Cool Duck Floatie. Uhmm 15k for all. How does that sound?

@Mandy Amour: Haha nah, just helping another art appreciator out

@Mandy Amour: Dude, Kiwi is also an awesome artist. You should stalk her topics and find her shop XD I am a huge fan.

@Mandy Amour: Haha yeah, its okay. Lots of artists come back to draw for event items during events usually XD

By the way if you need some items from the recent events that you missed just let me know and I will see if I have extras.

@kiwi: Welcome to the V.A.G. Its a warm safe place for you to share your art and see art being created! XD

(psst you can win trophies too)

@Mandy Amour: Haha I was thinking I would give out 2 commissions, one to the highest bidder and the other to a random person to make it more fun for everyone.

I feel kinda bad that there aren't as much active artists as there used to be, and ever since I joined staff I have been incredibly slow finishing commissions so I am contributing to the problem XD

@Mandy Amour: I was thinking about making an art auction and pinging all of you that want art. But got some RL commissions to do at the moment so putting that on hold for the time being. I wish grocery stores accepted volts and ohms XD Then I'd be here all day everyday haha

@sunny: Yeah sure I will add you to my reminders

@Nephila: Lucky person! I love her accessories! I wish those existed as real items :viohearteyes:

@Nephila: oh who won?
