I wish I could draw like this

[Mister.Right]

When I was little I loved drawing but did not have time and money to pursue this passion. Now, I don't dedicate my time in drawing anymore but I love looking at fantasy art like this.

I think it takes years to be good like this, and hours to draw a picture like this.

I have both fear and reverence for artists of this caliber. Truly, truly, amazing.

If you want it bad enough, anything is possible
I couldn't find any info on this artist, but on other I know who draw like this, they probably went to an art school and have been studying and drawing everyday for decades..

Actually, when I look at this, I think it's a little sloppy. I get that it's a style choice to leave things a bit more painterly, but personally I prefer art that's really detailed and defined, but that's just my opinion. In a fantasy setting, a painterly style might add to the dream-like quality, plus it'd take like two weeks to refine all that, and given that people look at pictures for like 2 minutes, it's not worth it XD

@Rhino
You make a good point. When I'm looking at art blogs/videos, the amount I appreciation I actually have for this is just a drop in a bucket.

Two minutes is an over estimate. In video editing class, they taught us that the average American attention span is literally less than 3 seconds. And this was about 10 years before tumble blogging like Facebook, Twitter, and Tumblr.

It's like...

• "Ooo pretty picture!" (swipe)
• "Ooo pretty picture!" (scroll)
• "Ooo pretty picture!" (scroll)
• etc...

BTW. I went to an art college and I art like a caveman.

Hey, cavemen were the pioneers of art I bet you can do great things

@mogwai Like a caveman indeed! You apparently art like a caveman and you're still loads better than me! I do art like a fifth grader.
@Rhino yeah, I agree. The hair and stuff looks really weird. It's decent when you look at it for the first time, but it's kind of blurry. I prefer a sharper style. *Looks at avatar* Maybe not that sharp.

FFVIII and FFXV fan here? When the two art forms(draw and music) come together gives me good mood.

It's wanglong/wlop's art!! I'm a big fan of his work. He has a webcomic too c:

I've been drawing arbitrarily all my life and I hope that I can paint like that too, some day.

I love this, I wish I could do this. We have the equipment, It's just training the eye that I've spent so little time working on.
