Doing traditional art

Journal Entry: Thu May 19, 2016, 3:13 AM

Hey guys!
It's been ages since I wrote a new journal. I decided to give traditional art a shot, it's been over 12 years since I have used paints so this is something really new for me. I'm not sure if I should share my artworks on here, but you can follow me on Facebook here:
www.facebook.com/Emilia.Paw.Arts

I have also created an Instagram account, that's where all my rough updates as well as the final works will go, if you want to follow me my address is:
www.instagram.com/emiliapaw5/?…

At the moment I'm dabbling with watercolours, I want to create a series of animals and then I will move onto acrylics. Oils will be last on the list. If you guys have any tips regarding traditional painting let me know

I got my 3rd DD, thank you :)Thank you guys for a Daily Deviation! I really appreciate it. Sometimes I have self-doubt in my skills and knowing that my art is appreciated helps me lift my spirits, so thank you.
Thank you to :iconlovelessdevotions: for suggesting my artwork to be a DD and thanks to :icondiphylla: for featuring it

I have started painting traditionally, It's going really slow so far, as the last time I painted something on a canvas was over 12 years ago. There is a lot for me to learn and I need to practice patience, a lot of it! I'm not sure if I will be posting any of it here, as at the moment it's just boring landscapes and it's mainly just for practice.

Looking for a store that sells graphics tablets!Does anyone know where one could purchase a wacom graphics tablet? An actual store somewhere in Joburg, South Africa rather than online? The post office is on strike, so I would like to purchase it physically

Thanks in advance!

Accepting 3 commissionsAt the moment I'm accepting 3 commissions. Prices are quoted based on the amount of hours that will be put in. If you are interested you can private message me here or mail me at miarazial@gmail.com
My workflow is as follows:
1. You may brief me via email and we will communicate to ensure that I understand what your requirements are for the commission.
2. I will do a few rough thumbnail sketches according to the brief and you can choose the one that you like.
3. You can then send me half the payment or the full payment if you are comfortable enough after I send you a neater, more detailed sketch based on the thumbnail that you chose. If you are happy with it I will begin painting. If not, I will make changes until you are happy.
4. I will send you work in progress once the painting is halfway done (for more changes etc.)
5. Once I receive the rest of the payment I will send you the completed piece.
My work examples:

I'm on twitter- that day has finally arrived :OHey guys
So the day that I signed up on twitter has arrived. All this time I refused to create an account, but gave in out of curiosity. My twitter name is EmiliaPaw5 if you have a sudden urge to follow me or just pop in to say hello. I might say something interesting/informative or funny, perhaps even air out my dirty laundry (you wish!) or post private pics (of my dogs/food/doodles/place of dwelling/bad hair day/etc of course! What were YOU thinking?) or I might be a total snooze that helps you cure your insomnia.
In other very interesting news- I have no news

Collective Feature #20Updates:
Firstly, I want to thank the anonymous user who gave me a 3-month Premium Membership. I don't use the features much, but I like the journal themes, so thank you!

Secondly, I wanted to thank everyone who wished me a Happy Birthday! Being at college, nothing excited happened except classes and work, but I did get to help out at a dodgeball tournament our club hosted, so that was kinda fun.
Thirdly, who else enjoyed the 70=80 degree temperatures and gorgeous weather on Friday + Saturday? Cause I know I did! It was short lived (back to rainy, windy, and cool) but I hope you all made the most of it! I drove up to Teatown Reservation to see if there was any growth, but there was very few. They opened up their "Wildflower Island" to the public and I hope to go back in a couple of weeks when things begin to grow more.
I already know it's going to be one of those weeks because this morning I burnt a finger on the

Comissions: Opened o.o!HELLO THERE
YES! I'M MAKING COMMISSIONS. BILLS TO PAY, NEED TO SURVIVE LOL
In all seriousness, I wanna start to make commissions. After talking to Alyssa (walkingmelons on youtube) about prices, I'm leaning towards following her policy. So if you want to commission me here are some details:
A fully colored digital drawing (like this one): $40 (may charge extra if there are more than 2 characters)
A fully colored digital drawing only focusing on the upper body part: $30
Since I'm just starting with the commission thing I wanna take it slowly and patiently, maybe in a future I'll be able to draw only sketched or simple colored drawings which will be cheaper, but for now I'll focus on what I know I can do better. If you are interested, send me a note named "Commission" and then add what you want. I'm thinking I can only take maybe 2 commissions per week to get started, when I get the hang of it I'll probably be able to take more in.
As for the time, it depends. If I'm inspired I might jus
