My Bio

I draw since I was a kid. I had very little formal training. I finished 3 semesters of an advertising school around 2010. It included live drawing classes but we received very little instructions. Still, it managed to improve my drawing a lot - mainly thanks to having a book titled Fundamentals of Drawing by Barrington Barber.

Between 2010 and 2014 I was wasting my time and money trying to get into IT/vaguely pursuing a my dream of becoming a game developer.

Due to much values orientated personality and not deriving pleasure from bending hardware/software to my will and general lack of interest in new technologies, I haven't got deep enough in into it to make it a viable career or at least allow me to make a game.

So, I'm back to taking drawing seriously.

Deviantart became a source of pure misery for me.

0 min read

Over last few years posting here became an endless stream of frustration. It started in 2014 with the invasion of massfaving artists. People who just dishonestly fav everything they see to build their own following, then it escalated to using scripts, now the fucking Russian bots. Like, it's like DA died in 2014 and only an empty, infested shell of the site remained.

Hmmm, -W jaki m.in. sposób można "trafić" na "Polaka" na dA :
- poprzez wyszukiwarkę dA [choć po >10 latach spędzanych czasem na dA, nadal nie wiem za bardzo jak to robić, bo nie próbowałem]
- poprzez fb
- pytając wujka Google
- ...blablabla itd itp...
- (... inne "normalne" sposoby...)
lub jak mnie się trafiło:
- poprzez nietypowy link z zupełnie innej strony, a mianowicie czytając wypowiedzi m.in. na temat "Paczka w ruchu -> negatywy -> przekierowanie do jakiegoś forum na waneko.pl -> link do dA ", by sprawdzić samemu "czy ja do licha dobrze zrobiłem, kupując coś na allegro, i wybierając opcję paczka w ruchu, zamiast paczkomat itp " [ ^{waneko.pl/forum/viewtopic.php?… ; autor: SzadorRzunXIV » sob lip 01, 2017 8:52 pm} ]
