Art things /ic/ never taught you.

>Even if it's shit, it's good to make finished, fully rendered pieces. If all you ever do is sketch figures, you'll only be good at sketching figure. So it's good to not put off rendering until you're "better." Now is always better than later.

What if I don't want to render you fucking faggot. What If I just want to make cool drawings like my boi KJG. Why do all you faggots on here trash people because they aren't interested in painting?

Also, people on /ic/ always recommend you to finish your work. Lurk more.

You know rendering isn't necessarily painting, right?

Any advice on fighting distractions and developing a good creative routine?

I imagine a few of you are addicted to this website, for example. How do you manage to still draw so much?

Deactivate your social media accounts and lock yourself up in a boring room with just your tools and reference pictures, and whatever else you need to make art. Once you get into the flow and habit of making art, you won't get distracted as much. Making a schedule with goals the night before or the morning of your day is really helpful as well.

>Live in D.C in a ground level townhouse do oil painting because a art school dropout gave me all his supplies/paints.
> Painting the backgrounds on three canvasses, leave them outside on my door to dry overnight and also because I don't like the odor of the oil paint in my house when I sleep.

What level of niggery does it take for someone to steal a WET UNFINISHED canvass? I mean its was literally a blue background!

Time to start hiding those pathetic threads. All of you crybabies need to move to /soc/, /r9k/ or /adv/. Enough with this bullshit

That's including all those sad fucks that make fun of other artists on Deviantart. If only you drew instead of complaining all day you could've gotten somewhere. You deserve your misery.

But I draw, I just took a break.

>>3083950
I agree with everything except the deviant Art thing, I still have an account on that site from 2011 and honestly there is just to much garbage to quickly add "don't make fun of deviantArt" at the end of your statement, there is some down right degenerateArt on that site and I'll be damned if I cant make fun of it, within reason of course. I'm not saying that all deviantArt subs are terrible infact some of it is absolutely amazing. I guess what I'm saying is that the topic of deviantArt being made fun of is still out in the open.
With that being said I totally agree that these crybabies need to get the fuck out.

I don't need a job right now, but I feel like shit because I don't have one. What entry level jobs accommodate art study? I was thinking a graveyard shift nightguard, but are there any others? Please, post your own experiences and opinions!

Graveyard shift most things. Anything work at home if you can. I write federal government tender (lol) for an employment services company and I have a lot of free time. Doesn't sound like entry level but I got picked up by the company right out of HS. Craze is kinda over but I convinced my disabled mother to flip fidget spinners from asian wholesale sites on facebook. Low effort work for some okay reward. Delivering newspapers and catelogues (at least around my area) is a pretty chill job and gets you outdoors so there's a lot of opportunity for some side cash and drawing there. Babysitting too, a lot of kids like drawing and are happy to do it with you. Petsitting also if you live in an area that can support it.

Less ideal but jobs with low hours in general might also work if you're desperate. My brother is a cleaner and he only works like 10 hours a week. Lots of retail outlets take casuals but they generally lean toward giving more work to adults so the short easy shifts can go to kids.

Ask around anon, there's lots of jobs that don't get advertised that might work for you. Alternatively you could get into volunteering - no money but it gives you something to do and potentially some networking and references for your resume if you need them.
>>
>>3083853
Where would you look to find these jobs? Newspaper? On craigslist? Or do you basically just have to scour and ask around town until you get a lead?
>>
>>3084034
Got mine from going to one of those resume review/interview training things that are aimed at the unemployed. The guy running it loooked at mine and asked me if I was interested in the opportunity (yes pls $30+/hr entry level). Did an unpaid test write and then I was in.

Newspaper and craigslist are fine (I think? I'm australian. Craigslist here is for drugs). Family and friends are good. If you feel comfortable walking into a store and asking for a manager to speak with to hand your resume that's great too. It sounds stupid and braggy to say but honesty all the best things that have happen to me have sorta just happened - I was in the right place at the right time. I volunteer teaching non-english background kids basic literacy and numeracy and one of the tutors there offered me paid work. I think it's really about knowing the right people anon, because most people apply online and it's really hard to get noticed like that.

All jokes aside, why does the majority of Tumblr artists draw the same style and that God forsaken nose?

Do they just all copy off eachother?

How do I reconcile the two?

Lately I've noticed that I've become far more invested in video games than in any other hobby. And not just playing them. I listen to video game podcasts, most of my youtube subcriptions are video game related and of course I purchase and play a lot of games.

I've noticed at least and entire year go by without me making any meaninful improvements to my art. It's most certainly due to my increased interest in gaming. I feel bad that I've wasted probably multiple years of progress putting time into listening to people talk about, reading stupid news about, and playing a lot of games.

Any avid gamers here? How do I effectively drop gaming as my primary hobby and focus on art (without dropping gaming entirely).

Hell I just bought a PS4 and had planned to buy a Switch in a few months without realizing that I could have saved for a new drawing tablet/better computer for art.

Side note.

Are there any good digital artists with youtube channels/twitch streams worth watching? Twitters to follow?

Or some art related podcast?

I feel like I've lost so much time to games because there's so much content and people willing to talk about them/gaming news. If I get more random art content in my newsfeed I'll hopefully be more motivated to keep practicing.

I pretty much gave up gaming, my social life, and dedicate every day to drawing or drawing related stuff. desu I can't even stick to gaming now, every time I try to play something I feel disgusted and think "I could be using these precious hours to make art gains instead"

Fuck, that's exactly what I didn't want to hear. The missing years is starting to hit my chest.

Now that I think about it, I do have a few tumblr's followed of people who play Overwatch a lot or FFXIV and still manage the time to make art gainz.

I bet those are the ONLY games those people play though.
