Hey y’all artists out here, uuuhh, y’all need to learn how to draw not beautiful people? Like it’s really disheartening to see characters that are decidedly plain, actually described in canon as not being conventionally attractive, have their features warped or nidged or downplayed in some way that makes then more symmetrical or what have you. I get that everyone has an art style but just like you wouldn’t say “oh i can’t draw fat people they’re just not my art style” you probably shouldn’t be like “oh this character has to have plump pink lips and lush eye lashes and wonderfully flowing hair at all times it’s juts my art style” humans aren’t always pretty. Art doesn’t have to be pretty to evoke real honest emotions. Idk that’s just my two shiny pennies
#art#art styles#this is specifically about a piece of artwork i saw depicted sophie from howl’s moving castle#the artwork is beautiful and skillfully crafted but itms so....uncanny#it doesn’t look like sophie#i don’t recognize that woman#i didn’t want to kake a big stink on some one else’s post but#can y’all please just draw plain people?#i related to sophie so much because she is plain and boring and i love those things about her#being plain and having interested that some might call boring is just as real and beautiful as going on magical adventures#idk yall#throw me a bone
