Hi guys! Another feature here for you, this time with an actual theme!*
One of my favorite things to see while looking through art is 1) digital art that looks like it was drawn/painted by hand, or 2) hand-drawn art that looks like it was done on the computer! This journal features the latter; maybe sometime I'll do the first, but those seem to be much rarer than traditional artworks that look digital.
One way to accomplish this is, of course, high contrast black and white art. I've found a few of these that I think exemplify this:
Also interesting, and harder to pull off (in my opinion, anyway), are traditional paintings that look digital. It's usually easy to see that something was digitally painted, because the lines are so clean or so blended that it seems obvious that no brush could paint such a thing. Furthermore, the colors seem flatter--there aren't any brushstrokes to be seen. Nonetheless, digital art can look astonishingly beautiful, especially if the artist has control over lighting. It's hard, however, for a traditional artist to get clean enough lines to make it seem as though their art is digital. Color makes it that much harder! Here are a few that caught my eye.

Have you seen any pieces lately that look digital but are actually traditional, or vice versa? I'd love to check them out, so please feel free to leave a thumb in the comments!
Thank you to all of these artists that have contributed to the deviantART community with such amazing work!

*unlike the last one where I just featured stuff that looked cool lol
and then I disappeared for a month
I did mean to go back to being active on dA but then I went to camp for a month
ON THE BRIGHT SIDE THOUGH
I went to art camp and have lots of work to show for it which I will upload over the next few weeks. Still documenting it all actually :P
Art features will go back to being every other Wednesday! Expect the next one, not this Wednesday, but the next one, because band camp is from 2-9 this week and I won't be home in the evening.
Photography Feature
Although I don't do it much anymore, I still adore looking at great photography, and photography has been a HUGE part of my art journey! So I've decided to do a feature of it ;D
Of course, no photography feature I could make would be complete without work from two great watchers and AMAZING friends. ScooterTheDog (https://www.deviantart.com/scooterthedog) and Rachael-Martin (https://www.deviantart.com/rachael-martin) have been with me through most of my art journey and I owe so much to them - I wouldn't be where I am today without them.
Summer!
It's FINALLY summer, which means I FINALLY have some time to myself! Actually, it's been summer for a few weeks now - but I've been having mega issues with my computer for the past couple weeks :I However, I think I'm on top of everything now, so I will be back into the swing of things soon!
Basically what that means is that I'll post my art and I'll be having features on Wednesday again! For the summer, I will try to do every Wednesday, although once school starts up again I may switch back to every other Wednesday.
Another thing - I'm going into senior year which means, of course, that I'll be applying to colleges. In light of this, until

Hey guys, I know it's been a couple days since I even logged on so I just wanted to give you an update on my life and whatnot.
Firstly, the reason I've been so busy lately is because it's in the middle of the winter guard season. As some of you may know, I joined guard back in November, but in the past I've only had practice on Tuesdays and Thursdays. However, we had a competition this past Saturday and another this Saturday, so we've been having practice every day after school. Plus, I have Quizbowl county competitions every Thursday, and then Smartmusic assignments to do for band, and then homework... It's mostly guard though, because with
