I Want to Know What ART Is (ART THREAD)

[Equinoxe]

Thanks B]
I don't usually do requests, as I've noticed that drawing something for someone is really easily frustrating O: My motivation goes down the drain whenever I 'have to' draw something.
I've done some minor requests for friends in the past but I don't officially take 'em P:

Yes! Practice is good. C:



Here are some new doodles (varying quality) and more finished stuff too, I guess?

You sir are a talented artist. could you do something with a reuniclus... srry its like begging, ino this isnt a request thread, i just love your work and reuniclus is my favorite to draw... plus i think itd look awesome in your style

 

[Equinoxe]

Thanks! I don't think I'll draw a Reuniclus right now because I mainly work when inspiration hits. I do like the pokemon, so I'll probably draw it somewhere in the future.


Here are some more-or-less doodly/speedpainty things.

I really don't see much wrong with you anatomy, I think you are on the right track.

Other than that, I love your art style and I feel you are already well established as an artist, while I wouldn't discourage you from wanting constructive criticism, don't let others shape your art style into being the "standard" for a good artist.

Artists need to define themselves, once they learn all the standard rules and elements of art they should work to create it in their way, not fall into a standard of how art is suppose to look like. it's commonly accepted that there is no such thing as "perfect art" yet it seems art professionals and art critics have an idea on what makes a piece "perfect".

people need to learn to enjoy the beauty of a piece, not carefully analyze it for flaws, and I think you are well established as an artist, don't make this give you a set of confidence that you don't need constructive criticism, but understand that you are established enough to not have to change too much as an artist unless you feel so.
