Digital Artists

Dear Diary,  I go by Burns online, I’m 19, and originally from New York (though I’ll keep my current location a mystery for now, lol). I’ve always been fascinated by art for some reason. Maybe it’s because of animation, or maybe it’s because I felt like there would be more opportunities for me. Don’t get me wrong, I still love traditional art — it’s my roots, and I’ll always revisit it. But digital art, even though it took some time to pick up on, felt very natural to me. Soc

Dear Diary, My name’s Zuzia, I’m 20 years old and I’m from Poland. I’ve always liked to mess around with creative things, but sketching on paper never felt interesting enough. At some point, I got really into watching My Little Pony speedpaints. It was so cool to see how ponies came to life with so many pretty designs and it’s also very satisfying to watch the line art look so perfect. One day, after watching a few of them, I thought, “Why not try it?” And that’s exactly how

Dear Diary, I'm Denise, 19, from Italy! I was always drawn to art as a kid, the idea of creating was pretty much the core of my childhood. At first my drawings were mostly just considered as scribbles; but as time went by I noticed I wanted to be more serious with my art.  Credit: Denise (Instagram @sono.una.05.complessata) I had this problem where I could never pinpoint a style I’d consider mine so I started just copying — just simple drawings or scenes from cartoons using t

Dear Diary, Hi, so my name is Freya or Franzi. I’m from Germany, and I live in a very small village, so I think I first got into art because I needed something to distract me — like an escape from the real world. I used to do a lot of traditional art, but I got really burnt out from that, so I started drawing digitally. Back then, I would use pose references from creators like mellon_soup on Patreon and Havanamation on Youtube. I'm still trying to figure out how it all works,

Dear Diary, My name's Isabela, I'm 18 and I'm from Poland <3. I have been drawing since I was a kid, many adults told me that I have a talent for it so I continued practicing. I started digital art when I discovered the Gacha Community. To be honest I really liked it because it was the beginning of this community. For me, posting my artworks on social media has been a really long journey. It started from drawing those Gacha OC's to even animations and more advanced drawings.

Dear Diary, Hi! I'm Bastet Cat, a 26 year old artist from Mexico who specializes in illustration and character / creature design. I first started on Flipnote Hatena, which was an animation based social media of sorts, basically the roots of my art. Getting to know and assimilate the bases of animation while learning to draw made my approach to art quite story oriented. Once I jumped onto Instagram (my main social media) I already had a strong domain on it all, but having to a
