This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed 🎨

Please visit https://lemmy.world/c/artmarket as well! This is a community for artists to post their portfolios and announce availability to take commissions, as well as get visibility for Ko-fi, Patreon, and other funding for art activities.

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).

NSFW Policy: Nudity and suggestive content 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 or suggestive content, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity or suggestive content that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude or suggestive subject matter. If you aren't sure if your work is NSFW or not, just ask yourself, "Could I look at this at a typical office job and not get into trouble?" If you're still not sure after that, you should probably mark it as NSFW just to be on the safe side.

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.

I recall wanting to draw a robot around the design language of motorcycles and motorcycle fairings, without it looking like a 2000s era Transformer. This was around 2009 I guess.

Considering that we are drowning in ever-increasing bland generic slop, this might as well be treated as an ancient artifact of a bygone era

Don't let the turkeys get you down, there's still paper and pencils.

Posting a lot of old stuff because I'm feeling kind of creatively fallow at the moment, trying to prime the pump while also making some sense of my progress over the years.

I'm still completely in support of human-created art, and I am practising it in multiple forms like drawing, playing music, writing etc. But it feels like a flame of a candle fighting against a hurricane.

I used to draw a lot of doodles and comics back in my time. I miss the level of creativity and goofiness I put in my drawings back then and I know I won't be able to recreate it no matter how hard I try.

There is a playfulness and openness to ideas in youth that feels very far away. Part of my headwork right now is to try to hold ideas lightly and think laterally while still bringing all my skills to the table. Getting old and not sucking is more complicated than I'd imagined.
