It sounds way too good to be true, is this an ebay scam?

Are you retarded? It's in bid not final "by now" price. The value of the 22HD will get lower because the new models are out.
Once in a while you'll find a good deal on cintiqs that sound too good to be true but chances are it's a steal since the person just wants to rid of it.

I bought a secondhand cintiq and it's working wonders. You just have to make sure there are no dead pixels that would obstruct your canvas area to the point where it's unbearable.
Post a pose, draw a pose
Face shots are also welcome, basically any reference
Do you know how the original painter of this painting is?
Reverse Google Image Search only shows the page where I found it and the name isn't mentioned there.
This board is probably the most art cultured place on the internet without snobby people I know.
Claude Monet, Field of Poppies, 1873
So this is it, sort of a brain dump in abstract watercolor format. Clearly there is a naive touch to it because I have no real training in watercolor.
The only thing I can say is that the result is clearly the opposite of what lingers in my mind, which is usually bleak and filled with disasters.
By contrast, I find this painting very joyful.
Eager to read external point of views and critique.

It's shit
>>2984483
thank you, it probably means that my mind is pristine and pure then...
>>2984479
It's interesting to look at.
Why did you make this? Do you have other work we can compare this to? Maybe a space on line?
Any artists you guys recommend who can draw and render vehicles really well? I'm really lacking in my list of artists who do really good vehicles.
I'll start with one who I and everybody knows, Kim Jung Gi

Alright /ic/, what is objectively the best social media platform for posting, sharing and finding.
I didn't say the most popular, the BEST to catering to artists.
photobucket

Tumblr because its easier for people to share your work

If i wanted to commission a piece of artwork from someone, what would be the best way of going about it? I'm not looking for a sculpture or painting or anything grand more just a digital portrait of a specific piece that I would describe to them and have them draw.
>>2984171
Any art website ever. There's floods of people accepting commissions, and most expect payment through paypal.
Find an artist you like. Browse their work to get an understanding of what you can expect from them. contact them about pricing. It's really not that hard.
Am I good yet?

Make this piece into a thumbnail. Go to Artstation. Put the thumbnail amidst all the stuff on the front page.
Does your piece stand out as being exceptionally good, mediocre or worse than everything else around it? Be honest with yourself.
Are you good yet? What do you think?
Not yet
>>2982404
clarify your values.
It's very scribbly
So I've never been good at drawing anything or have taken lessons of any sort (besides Art 101 back in high school). But most of my friends like these weird abstract doodles I do. I don't know what to think of this. Am I good at this? Is it bad but still cool in an abstract sense? Or am I just bad? What is your opinion, /ic/?
>>2984632
>Or am I just bad?
Yes.
Don't fall for the meme of using abstraction as a replacement for knowledge or skill.
Could i paint a shirt and keep the design after a wash? I use acrylic normally and dont kno if that would ruin the shirt and my washer dryer. Thanks
>>2984417
You're better off getting some of the permanent inks that t-shirt airbrushers use. Most paint will not survive the washing maching.

i wish airbrusing were still a thing
What do if I'm gonna try for two places and both require my portfolio. Should I just print it? Would an USB be fine(for a shittier college one)? Anyone encountered this situation?
>>2984348
you shouldnt send your original work anywhere, make prints and send them. doubt theyll look at whats in a usb stick
Critique my works, I am new to this however I do enjoy creating these weird things with GIMP.
Don't flame me please this is my first post on this board, I will admit I'm not very good (I use mouse thats kind of going out and I dont have the money for a drawing tablet).
Let me know what you think and tips.
>tfw can't not longer enjoy my tumblr, anime or poorly drawn amateur NSFW shit
>tfw the first thing I notice are the mistakes
>tfw can't enjoy art with mistakes now
You're definitely gonna make it.

Not OP, but the worst thing is that now I can't fap to 90% of hentai. However on the flipside when I find one with really good art the pleasure is twice as good as it was previously, so there's that.
Is art subjective? and if yes, doesn't that undermine technique and form?
I think the if we encourage the subjectivity of art then quality art as a whole will be stunted. Also making it harder for quality artists to monetise their craft.
A Michelangelo is not just subjectively better than a scribble.
It's time to denounce relativism for the sake of the art world.
There is some truth in this.
Subjectivity is a double edged sword to be honest. A lot of modern art seems to be created purely to test grounds of subjectivity, with little desire for creating beauty.
>>2980146
I think it happened when the post modernists pushed the idea that talking the talk was more important than walking the walk.
I find it very frustrating. It's at the point where marketing and convincing someone your work is good is more important then how good your work is.
>>2980171
Truth to be told, it was always like that anon.
All the great artists we worship today were not that popular in their days. That being said, post modernism was more or less a nail in the coffin.
