/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

>>3744511
I tried having a thread about this last week and it instantly devolved into people bitching at me for existing. What IS art? What makes anything art? What stops something from being art?
>>3744650
that's their face though. I don't exaggerate. Why come paintings always have to capture like a Mona Lisa "smile?" Why come paintings can't be of extreme or emotive or "hideous" expressions? Why come aesthetics always gotta be beauty? Why come beauty can't be about gross exaggeration and distortion?

>substance abuse, yes. it's my art topic for the next few months. incidentally, i do a lot of drugs.
It's not incidental. It'd be interesting to see some virginal square try a regimented microdosing schedule but they're too ascared to try.
>it makes me feel vevy spesholl
I like how you think people drink or smoke or microdose lsd feel "vevy spesholl." I like that you use babytalk to justify why you have the lifestyle of a child. Very fitting.
>you know, so many Americans sit at home, smoking pot and are lazy.
Don't need to smoke pot to be lazy. I smoke pot because it makes me less lazy. Calms my spastic mind.
>and this is my tv show.
non this is a thread on /ic/
>i'm gon-b famous
pfft I basically already am. I'm living in your mind R E N T F R E E
> that's because i call it an actual 'tv show', people need to take it abso-lutely seriously
But they don't tho. I'm a berserksklovn demon. It's all a goof!
>i will tell all of you sorry, unenlightened people about my subjects that i thoroughly studied for all my life
Hell yeah. Time is entropy read a book bozo.
> painting, ADHD, depression, mania, cats, Tim & Eric, Fortnite, the meaning of life and other easy stuff.
idk shit about Fortnight. And I've only been painting for a few years.
>yeah, and everything about me is wabi sabi. and entropic.
Same with everyone else.
>i basically am a walking, breathing lexicon.
idk what lexicon means.
>stick to me folks, i will teach aaaall of you how to paint!
no probably not.
> and please subscribe to my channel, like me on facebook, bump my self-indulgent posts on /ic/ and follow me on twitter. yeah and i have a patreon!
Yeah do all of those things! And I'm pretty sure I DO have a patreon!

this place is an incestuous hivemind of disaffected bitter boys and virgins that project their frustrations at people they're jealous of.

>do your underdrawing with a warmer tone like conte crayon
yeah i'm going to eventually shift away from mechanical pencil and pen.
>you're getting likenesses but your color choices make it look lifeless and boring
what about when I do the staccato strokez
>>3720968
imagine being anonymous haha.

I feel like you always identify yourself with the awkward attempts to inject the word rekt into everything you do. Not reading all this tbphwyf. You're violating global rule 2. You must be 18 to post here.

>I don't think anyone here would go that far as to seriously threaten the artist and their animals
repeatedly happens. Mostly it's the same anon but there's also the bad-at-english one that hopped on the bandwagon. Had someone threaten to kill my cat a bunch. After my dog died I had an anon that would follow me around and either say I killed him or he killed himself or they were glad he's dead. Only reason people think my name is Jimmy was from a doxxing attempt. One kid threatened to contact my previous employers and send them screencaps of all the naughty words I've said.

And like /ic/ isn't /pol/, but it is full of kids from /pol/ who are similarly trained in how to stalk and harass people they think they disagree with. There are plenty of kids that have seen me meme on politics, and it's clear when they're mostly engaging disingenuously with some underlying political tribalism memes motivating them.
>This place is toxic and depressing for newcomers
doesn't really end tho. The longer you're here is just more lore for shitposters to meme about at you. And once you piss off some kid they'll just keep that hate inside their heart forever and follow you around in later threads and anonymously continue the beef when I have no idea who I'm talking to. The problem with people with a bone to pick constantly hiding behind anonymity to repeatedly engage in bad faith just to start shit, is that the person that is held accountable for the things they say is constantly being bamboozled into engaging with someone honestly only to discover it's the same asshole looking for things to talk shit about. Gets to a point where you just skeptically have to assume that everyone you're talking to is probably one of the assholes, and then you end up skeptically being mean and "repulsive" to everyone, and new people that were honestly just attempting to provide criticism end up getting treated poorly and now they think you're an asshole forever.
