An art question meme

[motetus]

Since I can't take part in the writing meme that's going around, here's an art one that I saw on goblin_dae's Tumblr last night, which I'm sticking here because I don't care for Tumblr. Ask me questions, I will answer!

5. I guess I do? I don't think my painting style varies too much, but I've definitely tried different ways with line art and colour over the last few years. Trying hugely different styles doesn't end well for me though - I have spent so much time trying to draw more stylized art, and all I can see is how proportions aren't perfect and faces are off, and I DO NOT KNOW how other people can do it and somehow end up with things that look amazing!

14. Faaaaces! (not Channing Tatum's) They are just so interesting and expressive, and my skill with them is wildly disproportionate to my skill with every other part of the human body, just because I spend so much time drawing them and nothing else. Also animals, which will surprise no-one.
