Art Share🎨
This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed 🎨
Rules
AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).
Nudity: Nudity is and has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude subject matter.
Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.
Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.
Hey I totally understand how you feel truly! I am 35 years old and I had been stuck in a rut with my art from the age of 20-30, 10 years of hating my own art. I think what helped me overcome this was to start truly to work towards a goal.
What do you want your art to become? What are you doing art for? What inspires you? I noticed there are some pieces on your Instagram that seem like you've worked pretty hard on them and it shows - your Goblin Businessman is a great toon-style artwork. I see your more anime style picture with the laced up boots, and the effort again shows compared to what you posted here.
I think I see some of your posts show that you didn't really work too hard on them, given what you can output when you try a bit harder. For instance, your inktober submissions lack depth even though you did some dynamic perspectives.
Unfortunately I found that I give up halfway through something and I become dissatisfied, with these more sketch-like drawings you have done - maybe you can start gathering references for styles and inspirations. Start learning and practicing basic anatomy from just drawing more educational anatomy books. Start playing with your own art style by drawing in other established ones for a while to try to experience what the artist experiences when creating artwork.
I gave you a follow on instagram!
