I want to be a famous artist on here like you, but how do i do that?

I am in no way ‘famous’, haha. Heck, I’m still wondering how I still have this many folks seeming to take interest enough in my work to follow me. (Which, I must apologize for for now, since commissions are definitely gonna keep me busy for the majority of this summer, so I may be lacking in frequent art posts here for quite a while!)

But like I’ve mentioned to others here numerous times before, just keep drawing! The more you create, the better you inevitably improve and become better at it! Heck, just the admiration in how hard you work to better your skills alone can drive people into your work! I know it does with me, as I have quite a few friends I’ve had the honor of watching grow and improve in craft in the past few years. And that just further attracts me to what they continue to do, let alone what work they create themselves. 

Though, an audience can definitely be hard to earn, even if your skills are well developed, that’s for sure. I just found myself doing fan art of fairly well known characters for a long while, and I suppose that’s how my work happened to become a lil more known (on Tumblr, I should emphasize).

That’s just what happened with me, personally, but it could be slightly different for anyone else! Just work hard and keep at what you do, and you never know what could come of it!
