I bought one of Gurney's videos, it was pretty interesting to see how he painted. It was one of the videos where he paints for Scientific American magazine.
Jeff Watts
there's some New York academy that uploads master class stuff here and there.
Just fucking google it ya dingus, the videos aren't hard to find
Okay guys, so how does non-generic non-tumblr art look?
Can you post some names/pictures of artists that are "generic tumblr artists" VS "non-generic ones" (excluding classical art, of course)
pic is of course unrelated
>>2584647
>excluding classical art
>of course
Sorry friend. You only deserve generic Tumblr artists.
I don't know. If you post concept art people will mock that as well, so what's the point of even asking anyone in this shithole?
>>2584647
A good art style should be rooted in some basic elements, like how you render form, how much attention you pay to details, the colors/textures, what basic shapes you prefer, how much your gesture/construction is showing - that's what makes it versatile.
Ima post a few I like, but first - pic related, a pretty generic tumblr stuff.
My friend and I both drew a dog and we were arguing about which one is better.
>drawing competition

It wasn't a competition, we coincidentally both drew a dog. Thanks for the help, buddy.
they are both bad
Anyone got any inspirational quotes from artists? I'll start.
"/ic/ is full of talentless armchair critics and intellectual midgets who waste countless hours on learning dogmatic, outdated, secondhand principles of "correct" techniques, totally crushing the possibility of any freedom of expression and producing homogenous, hollow, meaningless shite"
- Hokusai
"i am a feminist or a numale"
- OP
Are you butthurt because you got a harsh critique OP?
how do you guys get over the paranoia of startng an instagram or making a facebook page. part of the reason i do art is because i have a medical condition that makes me socially isolated. i am deathly afraid of people i know and avoid irl finding my artpage and laughing at me. i feel it is better not to try than to try and fail and to be seen as failing.
>>2585396
>paranoia
>medical condition that makes me socially isolated
>deathly afraid of people
Well you sound pretty pathetic, OP. I don't think any amount of advice will really help you or lead you to where you want to be.
But i'll try my luck for the lulz.
You just do it and try to remind yourself that other people's opinions don't feed you, clothe you or keep you alive. Really and truly, other...

Do things because you want to do them, not because of what people will think of you. Simple.
welp, i typed out a long thing an accidentally lost it all, hahaha, abriged version:
see a therapist and get medication to help you with this issue if you haven't done so already
use a pen name, don't tell people you draw, if you get good enough to support yourself from art just tell people you work from home doing super boring shit but it pays the bills and you get to chill at home
if someone ever comes over and recognizes your art supplies and gets super pushy to see your work, have some middle of the road milquetoast studies/landscapes/photocopies...

Hi D/ic/k heads
Ive got this little set up for gouache that i want to sketch and paint with whilst on bus/train
but the damn gouche keeps cracking whenever i pour it in and let it dry. it doesn't happen with watercolor.
I dont want to pour out fresh pain every time i want to paint for 15 minutes to 30 minutes. i do that for dedicated plein air sessions.
any solutions? do you guys put gouache in half pans?
Dried gouache pans will never have the same consistency as paint straight from the tube. You can keep them from breaking up by adding gum arabic to the mix, but really, just take out a few tubes.

thanks anon kun
>>2584219
Don't use shit tier gouache.
What brand you using, anon?
How does one stop drawing with lines and begin painting straight onto a canvas digitally?
The learning curve seems terrifyingly steep and I really don't even know where our how to start. Does anybody here have any good tips, advice or video tuts on how to make the transition?
>>2584181
ok i'll post this here so other digital artists can screencap or whatever. I can't attach multiple mages, but i'll probably post a few times.
Digital Rendering requires four skills:
>1. the ability to paint from light-to-dark
>2. the ability to paint from dark-to-light
>3. an understanding of the anatomy of light
>4. an understanding of edge control.

this is the anatomy of light i'm referring to.
Here are some videos I found to explain light properties.

When you paint with lines, you ultimately end up just painting them out, so in a way you answered your own question:
>begin painting straight onto a canvas digitally
you can fix your mistakes very easily in digital, you have an unlimited supply of every...

did he make those PS2 advertisements?
any tips for my snapchat geofilter?
I only found out what they are two minute ago but my pov is that they suck for any purpose except sharing a single casual photo with several people who may not know what you've been up to and don't have long enough to tell where you are by looking at the context/background. that or if you plan on making your snaps postcards and selling them... with copyrighted logo attached.
try to get the colours of the photo to coordinate with the sticker
I made this. Taking requests
