wow rude

It really bothers me that he colored outside of the lines on the right gnome's beard. Like, he mostly tried to stay in the lines and then there's that gnome's beard. I guess also a tiny bit on the finger of her right hand.

NICEU ASSU

Where's the thicc, jap?

I want the thicc.

I sucked it up and drew knowing it would be complete shit, but I usually end up enjoying it in the end. It's not really hard to pick up drawing for me because I don't do much else. No games, no shows, no friends.

Literally just put pencil to paper (or nib to tablet). That is the only way to get back into the routine - it may or should feel forced for the first couple days or perhaps weeks but it'll feel natural (again) soon enough.

If I have long periods where I don't draw, I usually come back refreshed and with a much more keen eye for drawing. It's like I improve more by taking a break, then by forcing myself to draw when I'm burned out.

Vacations abroad also have the same effect, but greatly amplified.

its mediocre

More Loomis, less degenerate lazy stencils.

Thanks future self.

I'm not really sure why you chose this specific time to come, but I've seen your words and understand them.

Or perhaps I don't understand as well as I think I do.

But it's a step in the right direction.

That's what I needed.

I will continue to draw.

When I am down or even when I want to draw the most.

I will remember those feelings that come with my drawings..

Whoa didnt expect a similarly formatted message.... I love you old self

It's very interesting. I have no idea how artists that do works like this do so. What goes on in your mind, I wonder. I suck at abstract pieces because I just bring them to reality because they're not realistic. I'm too bound by the ground, I guess. Love how the color balance works all through and it doesn't feel too heavy on side or the other. You did say it was a well though out topic, how do you begin about thinking up such a thing? As well as color scheme?

It's supposed to be a primitive style that makes the work the expression itself. So here, "Hunting Party" has two meanings: One, the subject, a party of men hunting for their dinner—and two: the view is also participating in the hunting party, trying to make some sense of the environment ahead, the painting. There are three figures, middle near left and middle far. I wanna give just enough of a hint so that the experience of the men can be the same as the viewer's. The work involves dealing with patterns and basic colors and a good amount of self trust. leafy greens for the top, light blue or airy colors for the middle, and darker floor colors on the bottom.

Then you kinda get into an intuitive flow and just do what feels right with your palette

as the /ic/ resident christfag

iconography basics:

In Eastern Orthodoxy, the most widely used Christogram is a four-letter abbreviation ICXC—a traditional abbreviation of the Greek words for "Jesus Christ" (that is, the first and last letters of each of the words ΙΗΣΟΥΣ ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ—written "IHCOYC XPICTOC"

IECUC XRICT - IC XC
JESUS CHRIST

i say start with making an Acheiropoieta (face of christ made without hands, aka so holy it just made itself)

then do a christ pantocrator or veil of veronica (depending on whether you are better at males or females)

then just do whatever you want

easy mode: virgin mary with baby jesus icon (mother of god)
HNNG tier: penitent mary Magdalene = bewbs
important tier: Crucifixion
hard tier: the last judgement + assumption of mary

I thought the thumbnail was a chest with a very high prominent belly button.

Back then most art schools actually taught people how to draw and paint. If you go further back in time, there was the opportunity to start an apprenticeship as a painter.

Damn, that's a shame.

I've seen a lot of amazing artists draw and it seems like they have a solution for every single problem in the image, but when they talk about it, they seem pretty manchild-ish (for lack of a better word).

>put that there or it doesn't work
>just sorta wing it
>etc.

Is effortlessness something that is attainable through hard work, or is it just posturing?
A lot of these guys seem to have no idea what they're doing, but they consistently do amazing work after amazing work.

Can high level art even be taught? Everything seems so intuitive, yet difficult to explain.
