this is from some number of years ago, but its the only pixel art ive made
I downloaded gimp and made this on a whim. I can't actually draw for shit, but I might be able to get good at this kind of thing eventually.
Any tips or guides on how to get into pixel art?
I didn't see much about it on the wiki.
Art is a discipline of conveying truths that cannot be expressed by either philosophy or science. The aesthetics are a product of the verity of the work. Aesthetic enjoyment based on catharsis is using art as a junky, it is not true art anymore than porn is, a porn is used principally for erotic catharsis. Orthodox art (not excluding pre-schism Western styles), including music, ceremony, paintings, and so on, is an example of art par excellence.

Not necessarily trying to jump onto this potential 'debate' with full force, but I've started to think about this a bit lately. I mean, if art is just about making something pretty, I mean, what the hell's the point even? Sure, one could argue that good art is good because it's just good, but I'm just unsatisfied by one-dimensional art. And there seems to be so much of it. Granted, a lot of it is produced by young people still searching for their own image, and the rest is by veterans...

>What is the end that artists should reach for, through the means that is art, anyways?
Ask that question to 100 artists and you'll get 100 different answers.

Modern art has been there already.
After WWI, art seemed to just lose its conventional meaning -- starting something called dada - the "art is just a concept" movement. Think Duchamp
what does /ic/ think of this guy?

He's almost the Elliot Hulse of the Concept Art Industry aka he talks a lot of bs.
Nothing against him personally, he has the right idea to bash art school., but at the same time it's obvious he wants to be an internet celebrity and it's a bit off-putting, and he hasn't quite 'made it' yet with regards to his own work
What kind of music do you like to listen to when creating art. Personally i like Sade a lot. Other then that i listen to whatever, depending on my mood.
So generally this thread is for exploring and sharing music.

I want to know what kind of art style this is, like maybe a specific name for it? I'm referring to the sorta cartographic aspects, with the circles and lines around the planets and all that crap.
It isn't.
Not every visual design element constitutes a unique style.
>>2399793
i agree with you anon, you know.
>>2399788
UI design.
Hey,d/ic/ks, I thought it'd be fun to do drawings from this website. I need some more practice drawing normal people, and right now I'm still nervous when drawing people in public. This lady stood out to me the most. There's a plethora of more people after you click on one of the pictures that are on the home page.
HOW TO ROLL (if you don't want to decide yourself): Use last last 2 digits to choose your image, count with the first digit to choose an album, then count with the second digit to land on the image you'll be drawing. If you get an...

And here's my initial attempt. I meant to focus more on line work and then started rendering poorly. I also meant to suggest the lines in her fabric and messed that up. Confused shading methods as well. Hopefully I'll do better with the next one and less high school tier. Consider this a roll for me.

Trying to bring this from the dead and rollin' again. (I have to work on my first roll too, but hey.)
Post reference images( photographs or artworks) of portraits with great lighting that shows forms and 3 dimensionality.
So I made this heart tablet thing and it turned out pretty well. Every part has a different texture
I don't know where it should go (the trash?,) but I am sure this is the wrong sub to post this.
>>2399531
Wow thanks, that's really considerate of you. I will consider your proposal to find an appropriate medium to post my trash
I'm a poorfag, /ic/. I need to buy a drawing tablet but I have a budget of $50. I understand that this thread is petty but I would like for you guys to suggest some good tablets so I don't fuck up.
Pic is goals (sorry about the iFunny bar)
Make that a $100 limit

I know what you mean Anon, and by your list I am in stage 4 as well, and have been for a long time.
It is possibly because of my depression and other factors, and the inferiority thing you mentioned is a major thing.
This is my only solution so far: Force it. Force yourself to draw. Pick up the pencil and do it laying in bed crying if you have to but you fucking do it.
Can't think of anything? pick a random thing you suck at and draw it. Pick a favorite artist and study some of their work. Doodle a character from whatever media your watching/reading/playing....

Thanks anon, nice dubs by the way. I just wish there was an easy way out of this. Best wishes on escaping stage 4
Kinda agreee... though i think stage 4 is recoverable. I was in it for a long time. Felt like my work was always shit. Mad that the only way I could make it as an artist if i did get good was to sell out, or sell to rich fuck I don't care about.
flash forward 2 years, still in shitty job. Smoking tons of weed to cope. Something finally snapped in me. Locked my weed up until i do 50 quality drawings. Back into it, Lost a lot of skill, so have to start back with the basics. But fuck man. I beats not doing it.
So I'm really confused on how to combine gesture and perspective. Does anyone have any tips they could share? How do you keep a pose fluid and dynamic while still conforming to the perspective that you set?
>>2390869
post some of your gestures so we can see what you are doing wrong and give you specific advice. Otherwise people can only give you really basic advice like study up on perspective and more Loomis, which everyone hates to hear.
>>2390907
Okay. Here's an example of what I've been doing. I just want to know if I'm doing this shit right.
>>2390869
Look up the basic Vilppu exercises of combining boxes and spheres, they are online for free somewhere.

This is my experience enjoying the first time i've ever made money with my art.

As for me, it was a week ago. I finally found a way to connect my paypal account with my patreon to claim the $15 remaining pledge and at first, i thought,
>hey, theres no way this will work. Some stupid crap is going to happen and i wont ever enjoy that patreon money
Then, 3 days later, as i check my atm, the money was deposited, all $15 of it....

congrats, op!
I started teaching basic drawing to kids today. started with gesture drawing and making marks, then we're going to move onto shapes forms and values. I got them out of their shell and we're working on talking about own artwork. it's only been a day but I'm proud of them! I'm really excited for next week!
i've been really sick and basically stuck in bed sleeping for going on a month now, though I'm finally at the very tail end of it. I had all these resolutions about getting better and studying really hard everyday, and I did really good until I got sick. Now I feel like I've had a shit start to my year, and all the anxieties I tried to put away are coming back up. For a long time, I would get really anxious and upset about wasting time, being too old (im 23 in april), stupid shit like that, and I had learned to push all that aside in the last year or so. but when...
