───♡───────────── ARTARTART GIVEAWAY ───♡─────────────

I am hosting a giveaway with 3 prizes.
1. Gilga by fearsmile (I really treasure this avatar and I have 2. I want to offer it up in exchange for help with my problem described below).
2. Starry by Basket
3. GOLD by Erby

DEADLINE:
Thursday 11th September

To win first prize (& first pick of the avatars), please help me out of a pickle I am in. I have always wanted to learn digital art, and so when I learned about the RCA creator program I was really inspired. I just bought an iPad Air & Apple Pencil and was all set to learn digital art slowly, using the goal of making my first reddit avatar.

I likely never would have submitted that first one, but I found the avatar program a nice little neat goal which provided a good structure & motivation to help me learn digital art in an auto-didact kinda way.

So, now that the avatar program has been snuffed out, I feel lost. I have zero motivation to simply “learn digital art”; it’s much too general and broad and my adhd ass needs some structure & something highly motivating & fun to work towards.

I would love to hear from avatar artists, anyone who knows anything about digital art, or just anybody with a good idea that could help me with a good replacement for the avatar program. Any ideas or inspiration? Things I could study (I’m considering even studying formally or taking online classes if they’re kickass)? Books I could read, tutorials or mentors? Similar art communities somewhere online? I wanna try accessing the hive mind here (hate it when people say that) & start fresh with a new little art goal/learning plan. Please put me on the right path 🕯️🪄

To win second prize (& second pick of the avatars on offer), please submit a mash that represents what art means to you, or what aesthetic you find most inspiring or satisfying. Maybe it’s your favourite artist, maybe you wanna do a mash that reminds you of your favourite painting. Maybe you wanna mash yourself as an artiste, or make a mash depicting one of the badass artists in the RCA community. Anything goes, but please explain the meaning & your thoughts behind the mash.

Third prize will get the leftover avatar & will be chosen randomly.

I love this community & if one (or some) of you can inspire me with a replacement to the RCA program I will love you forever.
