You can draw so well. How did you learn it?
I started to draw when I was a child and I learned it myself. It's pretty easy, you just have to find your own drawing technique along with getting advice from other artists and looking up art tutorials. Inspiration from other artists and sources is also very important in learning to draw, but the most important thing is practice, patience and time.
What kind of tools do you use?
Mostly digital tools, which are my Wacom Intuos4 and Autodesk Sketchbook Pro. For traditional art all sorts of stuff. For lineart I use mechanical pencils, Japanese brush pens and Microns and for coloring I use either Graphmaster markers, Lyra brush pens or even watercolours.
According to the description of what art materials you use, you also use digital media to draw. Do you like digital better or are you more of a traditional person?
Earlier I was mainly a traditional artist, but now I am all over digital drawing. I love the fact that you can create and get like a bunch of different tools for free and experiment with different brushes and techniques. Also it's easier to draw on a computer, since you always can work with layers and use the undo function any time you make a mistake. I draw traditionally only when I am in the mood or somewhere outside of my home and away from my computer. Although mostly it's just sketches anyway that I then finish in my art program. Sometimes if I am away from home and wanna draw digitally, I have my iPad and my touch pens and draw in Procreate.
What art programs would you recommend?
It depends on your taste and what program is the best and easiest to use for you. If you're looking for an easy art program, then Autodesk Sketchbook Pro is your best bet. It's completely free now. If you are looking for an art program on your iPad, then Procreate is the best one. It costs 6-7 € on the App Store, but trust me, it's worth every penny! Not sure if it's available for other tablets though, sadly.
Most artists use various sources as inspiration. How about you?
Same thing happens to me too. I use a lot of things as inspiration and sometimes the weirdest ones inspire me to draw. Most of the inspiration comes from movies, games, cartoons and even music. What goes about music, it depends what I am listening to. If I listen to trance or any electronic music, I always draw something from a game or movie which takes place in space or futuristic places. When I listen to fantasy, celtic or calm music, then I am inspired to draw fantasy creatures or any calm scenery.
What do you love to draw and what do you draw most?
I mostly draw fanart from all sorts of media like games, cartoons, movies etc., fanmade stuff, fantasy stuff, mythological/fantasy creatures which are mostly dragons, sci-fi, funny stuff and original characters sometimes.
You are so great at drawing proportions and shapes. Do you use references or does it all come from yourself?
I always use references and tutorials. There has never been a time when I didn't save a reference on my computer and used it to improve my art skills. The main thing that helps me is practicing as well, trying new techniques, experimenting with proportions and so on.
I am not good at drawing and I would love draw like you!
Tutorials, references and tons of practice are your best friends if you wanna learn to draw. Finding your own style is as well a key to success or if you wanna reuse a drawing style of someone else as inspiration, then go ahead, but I recommend to mix it up with yours like I do. Soon you may as well discover your own style too. Full copying of a style is a no go and as well copyright infringement due to the artist having the full rights for their style and art.
