Watching Artists Grow

Journal Entry: Tue Jul 1, 2008, 8:36 PM

I love when Deviant Artists show their growth, often to encourage other deviants who feel their work isn't good enough. The evolution of skill can be astonishing.

Here are a couple of my favorite examples. (One of the thumbnails isn't showing up for me, so I put a link to it instead.)

For Old Time's Sake by Messa

(Edit 7/4 -- I found a couple more)

Does anybody else have this kind of thing saved in their favs? Or even better yet, have you done it with your own work? I'd love to see more of them.

I also want to show the evolution of an artist I've had the privilege to watch as she's grown: *springie!

I feel somewhat envious.

Too cool!! Yep, the more we work at our art, the better we get -- it is wonderful to see the progression.

Awwww! *pouncehuggles* This makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside! I haven't really revisited my old stuff in quite a while! It's a bit scary...but fun to see where it all started!

Wow, when you line the pictures up like that, the increasing artistic skill is really apparent -imagine what you'll be doing a year from now!

Me too! I keep telling myself I need to practice more!

Some people go back in their dA accounts and get rid of old work (or haven't been on long enough for viewers to see growth), but others don't -- and it's just the coolest to see the changes!
