All different art

My work consists of many things drawn exclusively in pencil; some do include color. Drawing from life, photos, and art studies, I explore anatomy of humans and animals as a basis towards drawing both as well as many different objects. I am fascinated with how the bodies of both humans and animals interact with other parts of the body, and I plan on getting them as anatomically correct as I can. Yet as I draw human and animal forms from Real life to paper, I am aware that my Drawings often fall less in the realm of realism and are often awkwardly proportioned. But that seems to add toward my art style the wobbly proportions, angles being somewhat incorrect, distortions. While they may seem like failures they are evidence of an attempt at creating what I see as a perfect representation of nature. But the imperfections remind me that art isn’t a perfect representation, it is an interpretation of reality. To continue the conversation further, I heavily learn from instructional resources. My inspiration is drawn from creators like Pikat, Doodley3D, and Proko, whose tutorials help me understand muscle structure, how bones interact with each other, and how both interact with each other. Their tutorials and instructions help create a mental image of how all muscles and bone structures look, which I then use in my art studies and refine in my work. My overall goal is to study 3D animation. This is because I believe that my works in the anatomy of humans and animals help create the basics needed for animation. Due to animation needing a high demand of figure and structure to succeed. I plan to bring those extremes to my works in pencil now. In the end my art is a combo of my imagination and observational skills, a combo of imperfection and perfection. Every time I draw I use it as a way to express not just what I see but the underlying figures and energy in nature.
