Art Progress Chart - Morganby `Saimain

Traditional Art / Mixed Media / Fantasy

~Huge File Warning!~ (Updated to add 2011 and 2012)

I've been meaning to do an art-progress chart like this for a long time now, but had no idea how to go about it. Then I decided to break it down by individual characters, to show how they've grown along with my artwork throughout the years. Hopefully the writing is legible! ^__^;

It was a humbling experience to say the least, wading through some of my old sketches. Looking back at where I started makes me wonder how anyone ever thought my artwork worth encouraging! But if there's a lesson here, it's to never underestimate how far practice and determination can take you. If you have a passion for drawing, just keep drawing! One day you will look back and be amazed.

You can learn more about Morgan and the "Wars of Avenan" storyline on my website: [link]
You can find Faeren, Luke, Semiyar, Jason, Danny and Tim's art charts here:

I wish I could be as persistent in drawing as you are. Magnificent...

Wow, this is amazing! From looking through your other progress charts, this really gives me hope for my own artwork, because it looks like I was about the same age when I started my own crazy journey into a land of characters and artwork for the book I've been working on during the same time period. I know my own artwork has improved, but this makes me really want to dive back in and really challenge myself!

I don’t even know what to say about this. I’m a little teary-eyed. It’s… humbling… I suppose you could say. It is just amazing to see how your style and talent have improved over the years. It’s also fun to hear about your evolving relationship with Morgan. But this is a wonderful example of how far passion, dedication, and determination can get you.

I’ve been drooling over your art for years and held your skills beyond the reach of mortal hands. I suppose that’s where the humbling part comes in. I got to see you’re still human.

this is great, maybe I'll get there one day... I'm actually about at the 1998 stage still X.X but i'm hoping to try and draw my characters soon!

Heheheh, I really like the upper-right one. I mean, I know it's old and sketchy but it's very expressive ^_^

~Aketzia Feb 14, 2013

Every time I feel down about my lack of skills and progress, I will look this again. Really inspirating, thanks a lot!

Love it! I do have a question though, is that little sketch in the very bottom right on your dA? I really want to favorite it by itself as it is so adorable!

`Saimain Feb 11, 2013 Professional General Artist

Yes, you can find it in my Morgan and Nimri gallery folder!

=JuliaGraceArts Feb 12, 2013 Professional General Artist

Erm, actually, it's not in there....or in your gallery.... I finally thought to check your scraps though, and it's in there! Yay!! I love it so much.

`Saimain Feb 12, 2013 Professional General Artist

Ah, sorry! I guess scraps don't show unless you click on the "browse" option for my gallery, which would show everything.
