Colors Gallery, meet carriondal
@carriondal is an artist whose gallery is filled with vibrant, colorful characters brimming with personality and expressiveness! They consider themselves a casusal artist but the way they pump out so much awesome artwork makes that hard to believe! Now let's get to know them!
What can we know about you? Who is carrional?
"Carriondal is a casual artist who loves to make creations people can relate to or find enjoyment in! I find people fascinating in how they react to the world."
You have so many cool characters! What inspired you? What are you biggest influences?
"Alot of my characters are inspired by music and video games. So many of my OCs have a song that I had to listen to on repeat for hours on end to finish them!"

More on characters.. What's your process? Do you come up with them on the fly or are they inspired from other artist and media?
"Most characters I create are on the fly with a handful of references to help me generalize a design! alot of my characters change ALOT after I draw them, I find its easier to make them that way, mulling over a design can become boring and cause you to scrap them entirely. But creating something then adding onto it later can boost the character!!"

What would you say are you biggest achievements artistically? What strengths and weaknesses do you have?
"One of my biggest achievements is how I shade, when I want a piece to look polished and gorgeous I'm very capable of busting out some amazing shading. Though I can share well I'm pretty terrible when it comes to color picking. I tend to stick with palettes I'm comfortable with.

How did you discover Colors Live? What made you interested in the community? How do you feel about it now?
"I have been using colors since 2013, my old account is still up on the site and I frequently go to it to see how ive improved. I wanted to draw digitally, but only being 11 I didnt have the means to buy a fancy set up, so Colors!3D caught my eye!"
"Colors! is always my go-to suggestion for artists, I'm still so fond of the program, it is just so simple and fun."

If you could add any feature(s) to Colors Live what would you add?
"I want the image import function back so bad, and a color palette catalog, with saved colors you can pick from/customize."

What advice would you give to other artist? Character design wise and in general?
"Be comfortable with using references! Look at games you like, music videos, anything and everything that could give you inspiration!"
Any goal and ambitions for the future?
"A big goal ive always had is to work with content creators online, not for a living but passively drawing for creators I like."
If you could improve your artwork in a major way what would it be? Is there anything you want to try that you haven't yet?
"I'd definitely want to improve my color usage, finding different ways to convey emotions in coloring and such."
Anyone you wish to shout-out?
"They dont use Colors! but I want to shout out my online brother @ACRIDSACCHARINE !"
