Hello guys! I'm Nyx
I make drawings since I'm little, I used to be open with others about it, always sharing my ideas and creating new things with them. There was a time where I became very shy and sad, I even stopped doing the thing that bought me so many good moments in my childhood: art.
Time passed and I found people that would appreacite me for who I was, I made the decision to open up and express myself through the things I like, that's why my friends from school and I opened an art group, and in 2012 I started a "portfolio" with my first digital art testings (I didn't even know that drawing tablets existed, so I made everything with mouse).
I saw so much good art in that site, and tried to improve my work everyday, I've never been too kind wuth myself, always pushing me to be better, or at least to find my own style. It took me years, met even more great people along the way, learned lots of new stuff, new ways to share and even get profit.
I bought my first tablet I wanted to adapt to the new way of working my stuff before trying to sell it or get commissions, back in 2016, I even tried multiple styles but in the end I didn't like any of those.
I wanted to get inspired by the different artists to find my own style. I discovered I feel good with the anime aesthethic.
After a year I found a decent and consistent style and pushed myself to open commissions, I remember I felt very nervious, I still can't believe people would buy my art, it was like a rollercoaster, but it was necesary and a changing point in life for me.
And also created my OC, Lou!
(I would make another post with the story of Lou)
This also helped me to nail down my style and to feel more confidence in my artist skill, I learned to love what I create, accept and fix all my mistakes. The feeling is the same to this day.
(This is my current artstyle)
So yeah! am always looking for new horizons and people to share my stuff, even if I am another artist on the vast universe. I want to learn new things from others and make them feel appreciated.
The Hive Community is friendly and chill so I hope to get along very well with all of you, Thank you very much for reading!
