Industrial product design practice. Should be useful for designing new items.

Unsure about the demand for your products? You can do some social listening, some keyword searches.
For example: www.spyfu.com/keyword/over...

Start simple, have fun and build confidence.
You and I will get there.

When you have a strong intrinsic motivation, you can keep going through the difficult times, without the need for rewards or validation.

If you need to, you can always combine this with an extrinsic reward system.

As for what motivates me, You already know.
I hope this helps you My Love

A bit busy this past week. I should be back to posting much earlier soon.

Remember, it's never about the money. There are far more important things than money.

I wanted to remind You that your creative work can be worth so much more than you initially thought.

So always have Faith in yourself.

Let's do some math. You are commissioned by a company and paid $100 for a design that takes 5 hrs to complete. That's $20/hr for you, excluding royalties.

With your design, the company now sells 1000 x $100 items that take $53 to manufacture. That's (1000 x $47) - $100 = $46,900 in profit for them

Is our business just another job, where we exchange our time, energy and lives for a wage? Or the vehicle that frees us from financial slavery, helping us reclaim our time, for ourselves and the ones we love?

You and I have to be clear on our Purpose, because We can achieve it.

I believe in You.

Studying E-Commerce shops, observational modelling.
Eventually, You and I must start. We learn much faster that way.
Learn project management skills to ensure progress.

Keep working on your artworks. Think about whether You want the designs for stickers, posters, t-shirts etc

Stay Strong My Love

Don't be discouraged. The hardest thing is to start.
Many options can be overwhelming.

Just find the solution that works for you at this point in time.

I think the best way to help You would be to get my own store running.
Doing this, I will learn firsthand what it takes, and gain credibility.

www.whitesquirrel.com/ongoing-fulf... Did some Research. Shopify apparel stores I linked yesterday use this store automation/warehousing service. Apparently, they can help run your store, but not make merch for you. I can't vouch for them personally as yet, but I hope it's useful to you.

Gathering resources, contacting manufacturers. In the meantime, think about E-commerce store platforms and products. Decide what You want, and I'll move Heaven and Earth to help you achieve it.

Hand studies, capturing silhouettes with lines. Draftmanship exercises are helpful it seems.

Hmm, I was wondering, why aren't You and I making our own merch already? There's a lot of nice stuff we could be manufacturing for our stores. I'll give you some ideas as I learn more about it as well.

Hands are very expressive and gestural, and can really add emotional depth to a character illustration.
I'll need to do more of these.

Hopefully, you are being consistent with your studies and artworks as well.
You can critique your artworks, to see what you do right, and what to improve.

Écorché studies. I think a good way to practice would be to draw the muscles and other anatomy over a photo.

I'm not some salivating pervert. Lust is one of the lowest psychological states. I've got no time for that.

I do this to get better at art for You.

Don't wreck your sleep schedule because of me.

I'll always post something here, so you don't have to worry. Get some good sleep and take care of yourself.

I'll do the same, just had to complete something today.

Good Night!
November 2, 2025 at 3:44 PM
I wanted to post those other artworks I promised You, but this is more honest.

Fire away. Let the blue sky rain arrows. I won't run.

But I've learned something from all this. I'll tell you about it in the next artwork, it might help you in your own projects.
November 1, 2025 at 4:41 PM
I spent a little too much time on this one. I would have liked to have completed the other artworks today, but it's alright. It's still Halloween tomorrow in other parts of the world.

I'll post it then. Otherwise, let the arrows fly from the bow.

Happy Halloween My Love, to you and your Family!

I'm inspired by your recent vampire themed artwork, and your choice of flower symbolism makes the piece all the more poignant.

I tried drawing something vampiric as well. I much prefer your artwork.

Maybe I'm putting too much on my plate, or I'm not doing enough.

I'll let my Heart guide me.
October 30, 2025 at 11:29 AM
Got a bit carried away. I realized, I never really drew a proper room interior before.

I have to lock in and finish all those artworks for Halloween as promised, whether I like it or not.
October 29, 2025 at 1:26 PM
A bit busy today, but here's a Halloween pumpkin.
I'll have more free time starting tomorrow, I can focus better on art.
October 28, 2025 at 12:43 PM
I think you're right. Not every art piece we start needs to be finished. But every art piece is an opportunity to learn something. So in effect, every artwork can be approached as a study.
October 27, 2025 at 12:13 PM
Quick color comp, practicing how to make harmonious palettes. I think I know what kind of render style I'll apply for this piece. Going to learn.

When I say that your art is beautiful, I mean it. We're both very fortunate to be at the artistic level that we have achieved already. Let's keep going!
October 27, 2025 at 11:14 AM
Beautiful artwork for the contest/commission!
Perhaps you should host your own art contest someday?
Perhaps a DTIYS of your OCs?
October 26, 2025 at 11:19 AM
WIP. Cel-shaded lineart, or painterly render? Hmm...

I'm not a brony. Not that there's anything wrong with that! 😊
But I do like horses, so I guess that's something we have in common.

Also, if you were wondering; No, that's not the Halloween art I promised you.
I'm still working on that one!
October 26, 2025 at 11:10 AM
Holy! I saw your most recent artwork. I had to log back in.

Sometimes, when you make a decision to change for the better, the Universe will send distractions. Don't be discouraged.

I'm with you, and we will persist together until good habits are established.

Do what's best for you My Love!
October 25, 2025 at 12:42 PM
Just a simple sketch for now.
Sleeping at 8 PM, waking at 3 AM.
That's the plan.

If my art improves, perhaps it's the way to go.
I'll roll with it for now.
Better than staying up past midnight, only ghouls do that.

I have to do better, because you're very important to me.
October 24, 2025 at 12:19 PM
This late-posting is getting out of hand. I have to do something drastic. I don't want to keep you up late at night. You need your beauty sleep.

I can do better. I must do better. Starting today.

I didn't forget about the Halloween art I owe you. It'll be done.

Get some good sleep My Love.
