Should you post your failures online?

Yeah I just upload it all.

Your recent failures sting, but looking back at even the most hideously botched projects after a few years gives you nothing but some fond memories.

If you know why its shit, just work on it. I don't see any point to upload stuff unless for critique.
Unless you enjoy having an art improvement blog or try to gather a following with fanart or at least finishef pieces I don't see why you'd upload loomis heads on a blog. (I don't get LAS either)

I post everything I do, maybe it will inspire someone else out there.

In my opinion it is good to keep everything you do, but you don't have to post every piece of shit online.

I upload 90% of what I do on my tumblr, I'm a bit more selective with my instagram and deviantart (more because I'm too lazy to post everything I do on every platform). The other 10% are usually the stuff I scrapped pretty early in. Even the stuff I disliked enough to avoid posting I usually end up posting on slow days where I have nothing else to upload.

The anxiety about posting subpar stuff went away when my shitty art consistently got more notes than the stuff I was really proud of, which was kind of infuriating but also just a reminder that I'm my own worst critic and most people don't think very hard about it. I'm sure posting some subpar stuff has lost me a follower or two, but I think it's gained me more than it's lost me, normies seem to love unrefined shit.

I believe you should post your failures. I often learn more from journey to the final piece including my mistakes. The more I see them the more I know how to avoid them in the future.

I think all the art community learn from other artists mistakes as well.

It depends on what you're trying to achieve by posting. I post my failures. But that's because I give myself time limits and posting on a blog is my "times up, get over it" limit so I don't overwork an image. Post it, it's done, move onto the next one. I don't know, when I post it I feel like it's just a good "you can't change it anymore it's already out in the world" thing.

I also think it's good to improve your study habits by studying your previous work to see where your improvement was sluggish, so you can improve future study habits. So I think there is value in keeping your older work, if you can keep track of what you're studying and how and want to really analyze your improvements and influences and what causes your art to change direction (or lack of, if you find yourself in a slump).
