Not everyday but almost everyday

Mechanical pencil mostly

Not everyday but almost everyday
>> If yes, what do you use?
A shitty and cheap sketchbook
>>In your personal opinion, what is the highest triumph of humananities achievments thus far?
Art in general
>>What do you consider to be the high forms of art?
Academic art in general, art that took someone years to train. You can apply it to any kind of art (Painting, arquitecure, music, literature...)
>>The low forms?
Alternative art. I'm no telling that I don't like it or anything, in fact I love expresive and experimental art in general, but I'd say it's placed in a lower place than academic art
Lower than that we'd find comercial art.

>>2783971
no, i take whichever tools i feel like drawing with if i know i might need them
no, i draw mostly on tablet or A3/A4 printing paper
math
i'm not sure, anything with good craftsmanship/execution that not only speaks to the artist
anything that needs explanation in order for the viewers to feel something when they encounter it

>>2783971
>>What do you consider to be the high forms of art?

That masterwork. You know which one.

>>2783971
>>Do you carry a pen/pencil with you everyday?
Technically no, because I don't leave the house often. I carry when I leave the house, though.

>> If yes, what do you use?
Non-photo blue pencil, F, H, HB, 2B and 6B drawing pencils, Prismacolor French Grey markers, Prismacolor .005, .05, Brush and Chisel Tip pens, Sakura fine-tip white paint marker, kneaded rubber and white vinyl erasers, black and blue ballpoint pens...

>>Do you carry a notebook with you everyday?
When I leave the house, yes, but not a traditional sketchbook.

>> If yes, what do you use?
Mostly use white copy paper in a clipboard because it's easier to scan. If something isn't going to get scanned, then it either doesn't matter, or the paper quality matters so it goes on bristol board.

>>In your personal opinion, what is the highest triumph of humananities achievments thus far?
In science, confirmation of the Higgs boson. In the arts, Beethoven's Symphony No.9 in D Minor (Ode to Joy).

>>What do you consider to be the high forms of art?
Music, writing, painting (traditional and digital), cinematography, quality animation (ex: Evangelion Rebuilds, not Street Sharks).

>>The low forms?
Photography, photomanipulation, drawing (feelsbadman.trojan).

No.

>Do you carry a notebook with you everyday?
No.

>Humanity's achievements*
I've lost all faith in your purpose here, how do you fuck up two words so badly?

>In your personal opinion, what is the highest triumph of humananities achievments thus far?
I don't feel very strongly about this question, but I guess the internet.

>What do you consider to be the high forms of art?
Those forms which convey concepts better than words alone.

>The low forms?
Those which add no value to the viewer's (reader's/listener's/etc) experience.

>Do you carry a pen/pencil with you everyday?
Yes.

> If yes, what do you use?
Little box with Faber Castell 4H, HB, 2B, 4B, 6B and 8B, a little piece of sandpaper to sharpen and kneadable eraser.

>Do you carry a notebook with you everyday?
Yes.

> If yes, what do you use?
Moleskine, the paper is very nice and I haven't seen any sketchbook with as nice paper except for fake moleskine..

>In your personal opinion, what is the highest triumph of humananities achievments thus far?
The willingness to keep improving.

>What do you consider to be the high forms of art?
Any skill that is trained to a masterful level. Paintings, Music, Sculptures, Can be anything realy.

>The low forms?
Plebs who think they are good but suck and are stagnating making any kind of art. Modern art, contemporary music that sounds like dust blowing etc.

>Do you carry a pen/pencil with you everyday?

Yes.

> If yes, what do you use?

I have a Pilot Metropolitan pen for note taking and stuff but I also tend to keep a small case of some usual stuff, like a brush pen, a staedtler lead holder and a few grey tone markers.

>Do you carry a notebook with you everyday. If yes, what do you use?

I usually have a pocket sized moleskin cahier (I think - whatever those cheap brown ones are) and if I have my backpack I throw a large sized on in there.

>In your personal opinion, what is the highest triumph of humananities achievments thus far?

The internet, unironically. It's fucking incredible when you think about it. Combine that with cellphones with data and you've got access to a global network of information in your pocket on a pretty incredible little machine in your pocket.

>What do you consider to be the high forms of art?

While I don't really think about the distinction between high and low and I think most of our artforms have legitimacy, I'll try. It'd probably be easy to poke holes in my rationale though:

Visual (Drawing, painting, sculpting, photography), music, writing, storytelling

>The low forms?

Cinema and video games, debatably theatre.

I say that not because I think they 'can't be art' or even that they lack legitimacy that those above have so much as they're a combination of the other 'building blocks' of visual, sound and storytelling. If you lack the 'higher' ones you'll struggle to create a good 'lower' one.

If you got money on hand, try Cottonwood arts imo. Pretty good.

Oh wow, just looked it up!
Can I ask some small stuff pencil wise, how big is the grain compared to moleskine and how well does it take dark pencil, and does it smudge a lot?
Do you maybe if you use it have a sketch or drawing that you can take a picture of, or just a small part of the drawing, I want to see how much the texture shows : ).
Can you work on the paper for a long time? Like fully render sketches without the paper scraping off. ( I had this happen with canson)

Don't have the money to take a risk of ordering one to try, but I am considering to do so in a few months because what I just saw online looks great.

I love Moleskine, the only thing I hate it is the smudging, I have to put fixative and baking paper over my drawings for them to not smudge and get destroyed, also only drawing on one side of the page.

>>2784650
ehmm with dark pencil, I mean soft pencils like 4B, 6B! Sorry little brain fart.

>>2784650

>Can I ask some small stuff pencil wise, how big is the grain compared to moleskine and how well does it take dark pencil, and does it smudge a lot?

when you go dark it smudges. But every material does that.

>Can you work on the paper for a long time? Like fully render sketches without the paper scraping off. ( I had this happen with canson)

yes you can. Paper is pretty heavy, which is nice.

>I love Moleskine, the only thing I hate it is the smudging, I have to put fixative and baking paper over my drawings for them to not smudge and get destroyed, also only drawing on one side of the page.

That would not change, you still have to fix it, if you are using charcoal or something similar. It takes watercolor or ink pretty nicely though.

Illustration, comics and animation, the kind of work that could mostly stand for itself, independent of its author(s).

>>The low forms?
Excluding the obvious ones: video games, poetry, pop art, anime, web comics.

>>2784640

I gave my reasoning, putting it in the 'lower art' category isn't meant as an insult. I love cinema and think there's incredible craftsmanship that goes into good films, and I wouldn't call a good painter a 'real artist' and say a good director / cinematographer 'isn't a real artist'. It's just a gestalt medium.
