Walking in Tallinn, I crossed a very beautiful alley called Katariina Käik. I was finding so many spots to paint but I was there only for one day. I was not only looking for iconic but also some shades and colors that could bring me a feeling for a good composition, when I saw these stone arches I knew this was a spot. I included this door that at first I thought "this is too complicated, I'm not going to include it" and then "why not? let's try it!". And... I tried!
And in the alley, we see Randall, the red fox, playing tag with Ja-Sun, the catsune (cat/fox)

It's about stop fearing it and start practicing, at first results will look like shit, and even right now I always feel like when I'm starting doing these they may look like shit but little by little they take shape. So it is more about patience and perseverance

I've come to learn with my digital work to not take it so seriously all the time, to stop chasing some arbitray perfect image. Mistakes happen and nothing is perfect maybe I'm just lowering my standards on what I find acceptable in my own work perhaps but it does feel freeing in a sense. I hope one day I can meet ya at a con be cool to see your work in person.
I don't practice on physical paper mainly cause my vision is so bad. I legit work with pixels essentially I zoom in so far when I'm working digitally not always but a decent amount of time.

I'm always up to art jams. I actually think you shouldn't let your vision discourage you from trying traditional art! You might be surprised by how much you can do without needing to see every tiny detail. Traditional art usually starts with the big picture anyway: shapes, composition, colors, values, gesture, etc. The smaller details can come later, but honestly, they don't even have to be there. A painting doesn't need to be highly detailed to work. And especially after what you said about learning not to chase the perfect image, I think traditional art could actually be a really interesting exercise for that. You have less control, mistakes happen, and sometimes you just have to work with them instead of zooming in and fixing everything. Of course your eyesight might change how you approach it, but I wouldn't take that as a reason not to try. It might just lead you to a different way of making art :)

Hmm maybe you're right about that actually can't undo or erase with an airbrush so easily as you can on a digital piece. Sure you can probably erase to some degree on physical but i find it annoying and probably gets messy like you said work with the mistakes let them flow and see where they go. Perhaps I'll give it a try. Thank you for the encouragement paco! ^-^
