Is art considered freedom of speech in your opinion?

It is not a matter of opinion, anon: the law, where-ever you might be, either considers it protected or it does not.
>>
I don't know in America but in my country's constitution it's called freedom of expression, this means that speech, art, literature, cinema and any way to convey your ideas is free

It's been one of my dreams to learn to draw (specifically for concepting characters/environments) so I can eventually bring the games I program to life myself, but how do you even start? Everything that needs to be learned is so disjointed and a lot of the time I'm presented with material that require fundamentals I didn't even know I had to know or that they existed beforehand. I don't go too far with any of them because I always feel I need to know the fundamentals preceding them first. Like for figure/gesture drawing, I quickly realize I have to master construction of forms, which itself requires working knowledge of drawing anatomy, so I try to study anatomy, then I realize I don't get perspective quite right, then it's circular from there. Can anyone, preferably proficient self-taught artists, recommend some decent resources that convey the principles every aspiring artist needs to have a grasp on? I'm not trying to contend with the masters, but to be able to create something presentable, which I know is doable in a realistic amount of time. I ask here because I see the talent that goes around, and that talent has been nurtured through hard work. I just need a structure to follow to be able to progress as efficiently as possible. An anon would forever be in your debt.

Has depression or some other event effect your mood for drawing?
My ex and I drew a lot together over the spring and summer, and I loved every moment of it, and I actually felt good about myself and my pics. Then we broke up, and I don't draw as much as I used too anymore, even when I got back to school. I know this sort of thing has happened before the relationship, but this might be the first time it's been this severe.
Is this normal or am I just being a faggot?

Hey, I've been having issues with my Ugee tablet. I can't get the pressure sensitivity to work. I'll be transparent, I'm plastering this cry for help everywhere that I can in hopes that someone can help me, because I really need this to be fixed before Christmas.

/ic/ has their very own fauvist master artist. His name is Illastrat. He is probably the best artist in the world actually, even better than chumbum, and I think he might be a bigheaded scientist.

Is there a guide to buying a monitor that displays colours and values accurately? I'm looking at IPS monitors, wondering about pricing and brandnames.

Most IPS/PLS/AHVA/etc panels from the more popular brands should be similar. Look at BenQ, Dell, Asus, Viewsonic, etc. You should be looking at anything between $300-450 for a good quality 27" 1440p monitor.

I asked this last time and people would only argue about other shit.
Is the dell U2715H a good monitor -_-

I've been using a Dell U2311H since its release and it's breddy good.

We can't give you advice if you don't post your work
However, if you're just here to shitpost and complain and habe no intention of improving, go right ahead, this is already 90% of this board
>>
eyes are the easiest fucking thing to draw
>>
>>2780386
well my best advice for you is to find a style that works for you and for your idea of character anatomy and looks
but im not a professional at art, so dont take my advice completely

Can you recommend any good podcasts while drawing? I'd like to take a break from listening music, so do you know anything? Preferably something that I dont have to think about much

If you like history try Mike Duncan's history of Rome. I thought it was a really nice podcast to have on in the background even if you don't pay a lot of attention, his voice is generally pretty calm and level.

It means you have to understand anatomy and how any given anatomical structure works, specifically, within the context of 3D modelling and asset creation for production.

What are those? I'm trying to think what I should put on my poster, which will be hanging on the wall near my desk.
Like, what image has some kind of a meaning? That you'd stare it at for hours and
"keep exploring" it?
For instance, Jackson Pollock's picture (picrelated) is described as this:
"It restates the negativeness of the universe. The hideous lonely emptiness of existence. Nothingness. The predicament of Man forced to live in a barren, Godless eternity like a tiny flame flickering in an immense void with nothing but waste, horror and degradation, forming a useless bleak straitjacket in a black absurd cosmos. "
in the movie "Play it again, Sam"
