Oh wow, I really really love these!! Absolutely gorgeous! You have a very good sense of colour, and I looove how you draw hands.  :4u:

I can understand your frustration with your style, I've also been going through a style shift lately, and I keep getting bored of my process halfway through a piece and wanting to start a new one instead ^^; Your work is beautiful though, (I also looked at the stuff on your site, very cool!) so I'm super excited to see how your art evolves as you work through this process!

I really really enjoy your art! It reminds me of Dragon Age, and the art for the cards and the Dragon Age Keep tapestry, but with more interesting and vibrant colors.
To me they all have a very distinct style, it feels very cohesive.
I'm honestly super in love with the pink hands one. The shadows on the fingers are amazing.

Odo was just an idea. Shevek is the proof.

These are some wonderful paintings! As others have already mentioned, the colours match each other wonderfully. Emotions throughout each piece are clear and strong. There are also great dynamics among each character and prop which is a massive bonus in my opinion.

I especially like the first image with the lady in blue and the one depicting these two women in red, mainly because they fall under my personal taste for images that look slightly uncanny or otherwise strange, in a good way  :grin: . However, each and one of them are great by themselves from an outer perspective, as they manage to tick all of the boxes above. Seriously, this is lovely work! I reckon «not enough skill» is an understatement here.

There are a lot of artists who feel uncertain about how to approach their art style, but I think not being able to find a certain style should not be the reason someone gives up. There are probably better pieces of advice than what I will give out, but I would encourage you to try out different styles, as sticking into just one might introduce more restrictions than new pathways. In addition, you may discover something new that you may like, or you could use these other styles to improve or alter the ones you like the most and vice versa. And as such, you could also showcase how much knowledge you have about art.

At the end of the day, you do whatever you believe fits you best because it is your art. Do not be afraid to make mistakes as we can only learn from them! Plus, I personally do not believe in artistic "mistakes" but "happy accidents". So, keep it up and do what you love! :4u:

So much this! I also either finish my artworks in one sitting(7-8 hours omg) or it will sit in WIP folder for months...

These DA cards were and probably always will be my main inspiration! I love how semi-realism of human figure intertwined with geometric forms and how artists of these deck decided their compositions and symbolism...Just yum.

I love this advice and try to follow it when i can. The only thing that doesnt let me experiment much is my extreme fear of failing and thereof making fool of myself... Yeah failing and mistakes are absolutes for artsits, i agree 100% so i hope to somehow overcome my fear one day T_T
