at what point do you start calling yourself an artist? what point did YOU?
my drawings are so awful I wouldn't dare wear that label

Just a few here do.
I will call myself an artist after i finished this big painting (it is my first real artwork because art is 50% aesthetic 30% Metaphysik and 20% philosopy) i started months ago together with some kind of manifesto.

post here please
Post your current drawing here and provide helpful criticism and advice to others!
This is not a thread to discuss your autism, the rest of the board is for that.
Please make sure your posted image is clear, DOWNSIZED TO AROUND 1000 PIXELS WIDE, ROTATED TO THE CORRECT ORIENTATION, and that any unused space is cropped.
If you want critique on a drawing from the previous thread, you can delete it there and repost in this one and then kill yourself.

stop trying to make every still life a unique and special snowflake. I paint the same apples for weeks at a time. a loaf of bread is like two dollars at a grocery store. bowls, vases, pitchers, and baskets are dirt cheap at thrift stores. if you want to do still lifes you are going to have to paint the same things over and over again so make sure they're things you like.
that said, i like the fake orchids. the rabbit is okay. turn the book so the pages face you, and ditch the toys.

So I heard that Germany opened its universities to international students for free tuition even though you got to pay for admin fees and living expenses. Has anyone gone to Germany to study art? What are some good schools there to look into?
I want to practice my fundamentals, and really learn how to paint traditionally. I got a couple thousand bucks to get by.

Usually this is where you tell us you already did research and which is better
>>
>>2865495
there's reviews but never knew anyone whose work I've seen who actually went to these schools
there's no point going if all they teach is the modern art BS like they do in the US

We all know here that we recommend Keys to drawing to beginner and intermediate artists because it is the best book to learn how to draw. However, how do we know it is good?
Pic related, in keys to drawing, they don't talk about drawing 3d shapes and having an understanding of 3d (at least in the first half of the book, I haven't finished it yet) and they just tell you to draw what you see, directly without doing shapes or a sketch first.
While drawabox.com tells you to have a sense of 3d and to draw shapes but doesn't tell you how to think like keys to drawing does. (Keys to drawing teaches you how to critic and evaluate your drawing)
So how do you know what is really good? Do you just blindly trust /ic/'s expertise and anonymous honesty, or do you just judge everything by yourself because you know you're a genius?
What is the best way to improve in the end? Is every book good? Is keys to drawing a meme everyone fell into?

I've been drawing for 2 1/2 years now and still dislike my art. Other people seem to like it but I always find flaws or hate it in general. Is that normal?

Less of a comic strip and more like a comic book. It's stapled in the center so I had to hold it open to take a picture. Hope I resized it well enough.
if you actually put in a lot of time? People look at it like most people don't succeed as professional artists, but most people don't put expensive hours into honing their craft or networking.
If you think about it, putting in 8-10 hours a day and then working your ass off meeting as many art-connected people as possible, you're already in a tiny minority. You can't be considered in the same discussion as the average fucktard looking to start an art career.
Now the real million dollar question to me is, if you're that kind of entity who focuses on improving his draftsmanship and nothing else, what are your realistic chances of making it? Does it ever reach a point for you where it becomes a practical pursuit, rather than a gamble?

I doubt anyone here is an accurate answer, at least I don't.
>>
I would say it only becomes a practical pursuit if someone notices you, because you can improve all you want, but if no one sees your work, then your chances are practically zero of becoming a professional.
I like your first two points though. It seems, you're one of the few who understand that we are a minority and a very small one at that and because of that, we can make it almost 100%.

>ask for advice
>refuse to post work
>give questionable advice/crit
>refuse to post work substantiating those claims
Why are people here so adamant on not posting their work even when it's pertinent? It's no wonder this board is such a shithole when it's filled with people who would rather talk about their drawings than post them. With a lot of the good drawfags and redliners having left already, any crit is most likely coming from some idiot who just read Loomis and thinks he understands anatomy.
