Five years of college, graphic design BFA, though my role at work isn't primarily design, just something I'm able to do for them when they need it

Ven,
That really stings and I'm not even within colour theory anymore. But at the same time... It being printed in black and white kind of made me giggle. It has an awful irony to it lol

I also turned in my final design project for an event poster here at work and spent a good amount of time on color theory, as one does, and they had it printed in greyscale. Why. Just why?

On the subject of batteries my laptop charger blew earlier, which meant I missed checking if I wanted to put any horses in memorial before they were deleted :(

I didn't read the other posts, so I apologize for repetitiveness. You have a very unique art style. Personally, I love it! It's a very realistic style. If you look at really popular artists, say Zomb or Jello for example. They have a very soft style. I would try out some hand painted hair. I'm not quite sure what you do for hair currently, but It looks cut out and smudged. Hair is a hard thing to get a the hand if, but it definitely adds to art. Body prep is another huge thing, try smudging your prices a bit. Or if your super ambitious, re-painting (Tasi has a wonderful tutorial), another small thing is eyes. Just brightening the eye and defining the color adds to a piece. You for the horses to the backgrounds really well. Make sure the lighting fits. And that a ground shadow is there, otherwise your floating! Definitely don't give up art.

as an artist on here myself i say there is absoluetely nothing wrong with your art....DONT change what you like doing because other people dont "like" it... thats honestly one of the most important things i learned. master YOUR style and YOUR favorite things to do and the customers and money will follow...just practice practice practice. love your art pieces and your style by the way. sometimes it can feel like if youre not the same as the big artists on here that you wont make money or get customers or something but its good to have something new and its good to be unique. nobody is the same and thats what makes people want to buy it...if they want art in another style then they can buy from that artist! keep doing you and keep pushing to put out new stuff...experiment....do random stuff and see what you like to do! honestly i remember when i kept trying to be like other artists i was never happy with my art but its because i wasnt them and i wouldnt be...once i found my own style and played with things i like i finally started thinking of art as something fun and enjoyable instead of a task to see how much i could make it look "good enough"
thats my advice for you and i know it might not have been what youre looking for but i just see too many new artists trying so hard to make it and rushing things...its a process and it takes time and just practice what you like and love doing and you will get better with time and start to learn new tips and tricks on how to make it look more how you want it!
just be YOU!!

I think your art is absolutely lovely, but like just about everyone here, I also think body prep, hair, shadows, etc could use some work. But overall your art is amazing and if it make you happy, then you should continue to do it.

I've done art since 2017 and and it's only been in the last few months that I have been able to improve on body prep, it was one of the most challenging things for me and it still is, I'm trying to improve it with each piece that I make.
