Hey everyone, my name is Tanya and I'm an aspiring concept artist originally from Russia. I've been drawing traditionally since childhood and really enjoy it. Now I'm getting into digital drawing and am trying to pursue a concept art career.
There's so much amazing artwork on this site, it's pretty overwhelming. Hope to get some useful feedback/critique from you guys, it would be very much appreciated!

I've been watching Ctrl Paint videos, they're so good! 
And here are portraits I made after his tutorials.

Today was working on these props, still have to finish little details.

Have been adding some satellite dishes, antennas and stations to my visual library. Hope to use it soon.

Been doing some landscape studies. Still can't understand, where to stop and how do it faster and easier. Need much more practice, obviously.

Shaddy Safadi is my hero from now on. He is so inspiring and his tutorials are so encouraging. So, I've been trying to use his strategy in this landscape and I'm pretty happy with it. Waves are really difficult to draw, all this tiny water foam details are so tempting and beautiful!

And here another landscape I made, using photo as reference. Mountains and nature are so inspiring, just LOVE it! Hope I didn't fail to capture that atmosphere of silence and greatness)

it's been a while since I last posted here, so here are some of my recent works - I switched to casual style and I'm trying to find my own style - it's still difficult to do, so I'm learning anatomy, doing sketches - hope it's gonna help somehow
