I've learned a lot from this site, not just about the site itself but also about art, and the use of language.
It's an interesting experience to suddenly be surrounded by hundreds of sarcastic people at the same time, all of them with their own ideas and experiences. I'm loving it. It's tons of fun.
I've also noticed that in an effort to learn more, I've started making more detailed art, and have started playing around with mediums like Pastels and Acrylics.
