My growth as an artist was heavily stifled by the dogmatism in the online art community I was subjected to as a teen (aka by rhetoric implying or straight up saying art has to be made a certain way to be valuable, which discouraged me from experimenting and developing for my own methods, customising my artistic process felt illegal) and i will forever be mad about it

Anyways if any young artist follows me : the only good art advice is get weird about it and fuck around a lot. Also be honest

#sam speaks #art advice #lol #this isn’t discrediting advice that’s like pls learn the basics and here’s how to get better at anatomy #this is pointed towards those artists that act like lineart is a given in tutorials #thankfully I’ve seen more and more ppl divorce from the lineart industrial complex #also *insert rant about the internet and mainstream culture’s bias towards smooth art #and how it reveals society’s desire to forget the artist #atsv and itsv ? breeze of fresh air BECAUSE it is innovative artistic processes #and places the human feels of strokes at the center
