This one ended up being my favourite! Definitely has nothing to do with the plants and rustic alchemist vibes, promise!!
Sometimes I get the urge to lock myself away in a cosy bathroom full of plants and pretend I’m in a fantasy greenhouse. Unfortunately my real one doesn’t have nearly this many plants :(
I know I say that I'm kinda nuts for doing the amount of visual research I do, but at the same time:
Specificity is SO much more compelling and real feeling, and imo not getting references often makes things look more amateur.
Eg. drawing a sofa- my mental image of a sofa is something like this:
Like. Its a sofa. It works. But it's not very convincing, the pillows are kinda wrong at the back, and it's not really giving any information about the owner.
Even if you want a basic sofa...
What kind of basic.
comfy and cheap?
kinda rigid?
inherited?
------
who does this comfy cheap ikea sofa belong to anyway?
guy living alone?
teenage girl?
Grandma?
Anyway I'll get off my soapbox but specificity is sexy and fun and it can do your storytelling for you!
