No problem! Thank you for the amazing artwork! You're actually the first artist to acknowledge my existence after me watching them ^_^

I think more people will notice you once you start putting some artwork up!

I'm shy with my work. Lol. I'm actually working on a piece now for my son. I'm hoping it turns out like I want it, like to in my minds eye. I'm proud of my drawing that's done so far but color and decoriveness worries me 😛 and I'm going to have him help so it won't be perfect but it will be special. I'll put up process photos if you think people would be interested. Isn't that called a "WIP" I'm also not the best with thinking up tags. Lol. Thank you for your time and advice! I really appreciate it.

Yep. They call a work in progress a "WIP"
I generally don't show things at each step of the way, but sometimes I'll load the original sketch
to my Scraps after I've finished a piece. Then I'll place thumbnails of the sketches into
the description of the finished piece. Like this...
 (I'm actually currently working on a closer up view of those docks and buildings right now!)
A lot of people do like to show their progress on something as they work on it.
It can be a good way to get input. They just load it/them to their gallery like anything else.
then move it to scraps later. When people browse galleries, they want to see finished work.
It keeps them interested and there's a better chance of them looking deeper into the gallery.
They don't want to see a gallery full of unfinished work.


Anyways....
 Welcome to deviantART. I'm part of an ongoing project here that helps new members
