Stuck On Simpsons Style

Post by addictive » Thu Jul 06, 2006 3:21 am

I've been drawing Simpsons so much, that now, it's the only style I can draw, which couldn't have come at a worse time... Uh, but nevermind about that. How does one make a new style of drawing? I just can't get out of this rut. Or at least tell me how to stop drawing Simpsons-style. I really need help!
Find Me, A poem by Chris Dominowski.

If I am lost, and you do not care, will the search ever be fair?
Why am I here? What should I do?
The answer to this, I once knew.
Why should I be found if I always must hide?
I have tried so hard, my soul has died.
Over the years, In fear I have drowned. It is finally clear; I cannot be found.

Human, a poem by Chris dominowski

I wear sunglasses at night, but I carry a flashlight.
I turn from the flame, but stare at the ashes.
I walk into the woods, and never touch the trail.
I always look at my calander, but do not care what day it is.
I am the mixture of light and darkness; I am human.

yeah try drawing them 8 hours a day 5 days a week.  Anyway, the thing that I do is whenever I get free time at work I'll just doodle.  Whatever pops into my head I'll just jot down real quick.  Of course in other styles besides simpsons, the main thing is finding another interest you have and go with that.  Try finding something that's completley different.  Like the kingdom hearts stuff I did over at dev art.  Way different styles, but of course I combined them but still.  Bottom line, just go back to what you were used to before.

here's a pic I did today to actually help me not focus too much on the simpson style...http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/35957748/


Like I said I'll do this during the day usually if I have free time or feel like you and want to get out of the simp style.

sorry to pop in like this, but there are two problems with this. 1 this thread is a bit on the old side, and 2 Ameture Poet has been banned from GFWC,as far as i know, indefinetly.  ;)
He stood tall on top of the mountain of his ancestors and looked down to see his home. He let loose a loud howl. He is now a man, but not just a man. He is now a true Wolf and others are sure to follow him.
