Attempting impressionism, oil on canvas
>>2522408
If you look at impressionist paintings, you'll notice that although they are stylized, the landscapes are still very believable. I think it would help you to do studies of landscape from observation, and then try impressionism again once you're more adept at conveying a realistic scene.

I know, I dIdnt use reference for some reason, thought it would just be a sketch. Also I only had like 2 drops of white
Looks like you painted a background and then dotted lines on it instead of having dotted lines make up the scene
Hi
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpxrY0O40Ic
I saw this video maybe a year ago or something, and it sparked nice discussion here. So I was thinking, maybe we could link some similar videos of academies which show students working and the place in general.
And do some of you have any experience in any ateliers/schools that produce contemporary realists?

wtf is happening with that dude right eye at 22:12?
Hey /ic/ I'm interested in trying to get an art mentor and was wondering what might be a good way to go about doing it. I figure that just asking someone would be presumptuous.
>>2521430
Mentorships don't really exist in the same way that it used to. I doubt you'll find someone skilled willing to mentor you for free. It would be an extremely rare situation if it happened.
>>2521435
I'm not really in need of instruction (I have a lot to improve on but I already have a lot of resources that I am learning from), I just rather need someone to talk to get advice from and their opinion on how I'm progressing or what direction to go in. And I'm not expecting this for free, I'm completely willing to pay, in fact I'd rather pay to be honest.
>>2521444
Do you want it in person or via the internet? There are some paid mentorship things online that exist, but I forget who runs them and what they're called. Maybe another anon can chime in.
Otherwise you can try sending emails to people you admire and hope they are willing to take you up on your offer (if you pay then they are more likely to do it).
Does anyone else find it difficult to draw standing up? I'm all shaky and shit.
>>2523512
Don't skip leg day bro. Also, stop smoking crack maybe.
>>2523528
No it's more that my arm gets tired and moves around.
>>2523532
train those deltoids
Why don't most artist ls draw sexy thicker women? Why are they always skinny and unrealistic.
>>2512877
Because they also draw men super buff and unrealistic.

Modern day media brainwash. I'm not even ironic.
I like making 'vaporwave aesthetic' pictures in Gimp and need nostalgic pictures of pink things from the 90's
Thanks /ic/
Thanks for what

This shit needs to fucking stop.

>>2524587
Oh look it's this thread again.
I'll be the first post to say don't bump this thread because I know idiots are gonna argue like shitlords and keep this thread alive.
Is this the new post work thread?
Finished this last night. Critiques?
Hello. I thought I'd share a text I wrote. Read and judge if u wana I guess
The years after the internet:
We didn't really know what to say at first. We were all in the light testing out wether or not people would accept us. After a while people became so honest, because we were so tired of pretending, that it inspired revolutions, throwing empires to the ground!
People started moving all around the world, no longer trapped behind their invisible cell of patrioism.
Years after, the world had become a calculated jungle. People were all used...

this is an illustration board, not an art board.
>>2524459
Artwork/Critique?
No?
Stop confusing me man
When did this board turn into shit?
>>2521030
When you started posting your stupid memes.
>>2521030
>Implying it was ever good.
>>2521030
When "post your work" became commonly said
also, when people would proceed to post their work and it would invoke a thread killing frenzy
>Have been going strong for about 5 months now
>Do 1 study every day for an hour
>All of a sudden don't want to do it anymore
How do you guys get over the hump?
by drawing
draw in paper, draw on walls, draw on tables, draw on paper cups, draw on your body, shave your dog then draw on it
study something different for a day
or take a half day off
Just a little drawing I did once while I was bored.
You made it.
Can you ship it to me so I can hang it on my fridge sweetie?
Yup I drew this myself. :)
Is there a good reason to draw pixel art in programs like Graphicsgale or is it better to just draw the picture in a program like Photoshop and apply a pixelation filter over it?
>>2524217
Try drawing a detailed low-resolution circuit board like in your pic using a filter. The whole point of pixel art is to get the maximum possible detail in low resolution. There is no filter for this. Every pixel matters, and only human judgment can place them correctly.
>>2524232
Personally I don't mind working with pixels, I may even prefer it, but seeing stuff like this pic had me worried that it may be easier to get more detail in with a bit less effort and achieving about the same effect as old school pixel art.
>>2524245
That looks nothing like old school pixel art, it just looks like an image saved with shitty gif compression. There's no intent behind the dithering so the whole thing just looks kind of dirty.
An algorithm can not make the creative decisions a human can and will never replace someone who is good at what they do.
A recent doodle of mine. Thoughts? Open to constructive criticism
Interesting lines, but no fundamentals. Read the sticky.

bet you $10 he goes on a "muh style" tirade
>>2521990
Looks a lot like my brothers crappy drawings. It would be very very small world if you're him posting.
How do I get out of a color rut? I'm having trouble using anything other than realistic color schemes and it's making my work boring.
Pic related, an example of a color scheme I would like to be able to come up with.
Color Harmonies.
just say fuck it and go mad with the colors/ generaly use brighter colors/get inspired by artists using brighter colors ot make you want to try new things
>>2520935
like everything else you use a reference or an inspiration you doofus

It's well executed but not really to my taste. I'm not as excited by this one as some of his other work.

>that music
What the fuck was this guy smoking that he thought that would be a good idea?
Ruan Jia is a hack with poor tastes.
