Gosh I regret not getting on da frequently. Your work has always been so impressive E and your work with color is amazing too. I look at these and, ahhh.

I try! I don't think of myself as any kind of expert, but practice helps perfection.

Indeed! I need a lot of practice on backgrounds, especially interiors. My skill with character work doesn't match my environment rendering skill and it drives my eyes crazy. Practice does make perfect though! I'm just never really sure where to start besides the obvious lol

I see so much of your character designs. Every time you create landscapes and backgrounds, I'm like, "Whoa! Where did this come from?"

Great colors, especially the one on the top. Architecture is so hard, especially when I try to paint a style or time period I don't particularly like.

I think part of becoming a well rounded artist is learning how to work in spaces that you're not drawn to initially and, within them, discovering the logic and language of the design. From there you can foster aesthetic appeal in yourself, or at least come away understanding more about the world around you than before which is innately beneficial to your art. For example, I'm not particularly fond of generic anime style, but understanding the meaning behind certain symbols within the genre, particularly the history behind specific looks, helps broaden my own design palette. Much like how learning a second or third language can expand your understanding of communication on the whole.

Great advice, like if I try to draw and understand a certain thing I don't particularly like, I might find out why I don't like it, and in the process figure out what I would change so that I would enjoy it more. Except, of course, you worded it all much better. You should write a book about your artistic process, it's very interesting!

These turned out amazing! And I will be taking your note to *cajuncur into account.

It's so much more intuitive to use; it was apparently developed to better match how humans perceive color and is so versatile, it even has the ability to create imaginary colors!

I now STRONGLY recommend using LAB sliders over HSB or RGB color sliders (within the color slider menu or the color picker). When you go darker on a color using LAB, the shift in value is equivalent to how darkening a color works in real life. Doing the same in HSB color space might lower value too, but it also desaturates.
