Now I am imagining a flowy TJ. Hehe.

But really, thank you for your lovely comment! It’s funny, when I was younger I couldn’t wait for the day that I’d be done with school. Funny thing, besides all the things I had to learn for school/college, I always read more and studied other things. So even though I was telling myself I wanted to stop with learning, I was actually learning more. I just wanted to learn about other things haha.

I shall keep on questing!! *bows*

Everything about you flows! And I believe this opening line is why: “in a way everything is a quest, because you’re never done learning.”

As long as this is your perspective and approach, not only will your lines flow, but so will your life and your talent. A beautiful illustration crowns this piece and wisdom flows through it that extends to many areas beside the visual arts.

Keep on questing! May the flow be with you!

Larry

I’m so happy that it inspires you to keep on creating. You know what I always keep in mind as well? You control who sees your work. So if you painted something and you’re not happy with it, you do not have to show it to people (maybe one person or so who can help you with tips/tricks). Also, don’t throw it away just yet, put it in a folder and hide it in a drawer. Keep on practicing and after a while, grab the folder again and compare. Seeing the difference is always rewarding :) Just start with a little drawing and use waterproof ink hehe.

It motivates me to draw even more haha.

I’ve always drawn soft lines and rounder shapes when I was little. Never could get the harsh lines completely harsh looking. I remember saying this to others when I tried to describe the doodles I did when I was younger. Yes, I really copied images without drawing for myself, but the line-work made it different from the original image. So I guess the flowiness has been there all along and now I can share it all with you guys!!! :) Xoxo

That’s really great advice for someone like me who gets nervous even *thinking* about dipping a brush into paint. I think all art is sort of that way-- you have to dive in and just see what happens.

I love these little glimpses into your creative process. It always inspires me to create!

We are all works in progress, but some of us put more into it than others. It’s a fascinating thing to watch you grow as an artist, right in front of our eyes! :)

It’s so fun to watch you as you journey forward, learning new styles and techniques. And that painting is lovely and, dare I say, flowy. :) Great job, TJ. Love it!

Those lines suit your nature, which is flowy and not rigid. Life itself is fluid and constantly moving. It is so interesting watching the art process through your eyes. Your quest for learning is a wonder to admire. :)
