Ever notice how sometimes you can tell an artist is a guy or a girl through their art style/subject? Or sometimes even the description they give to their art?

Male artist example: pic related

Female artist example: typical tumblr style cartoons

This is 4chan so I didn't feel the need to make a disclaimer, but I was about to write that these are just generalizations.
I always love it when I "read" one gender from the art but it turns out the artist is the opposite gender in real life. So interesting.

It's the little things... I don't judge in any way, for the record, it's just interesting because most males don't tend towards that sort of thing.

Another thing, drawings of yaoi or bishounen are dead giveaways.
Sure, a guy could be drawing that sort of thing in theory, but it always turns out the artist is female when I check. I dunno...

>> No.1906620

Mediocre male drawings tend to look a bit more autistic than those of mediocre females. Rigid lines or dead eyes. While female mediocre drawings seem to express emotion better through the eyes or something, and are just "brighter." Surely I can't be the only one who noticed this.

I'm not trying to be sexist.

Pic related was drawn by a girl.

Subject matter-wise, though (tech, female body on display) and style-wise (detailed, realism digital painting), along with the toned-down colors, I
assumed the artist was male.

You're telling me no one else assumes gender from art?

I think a lot of it has to do with how privileged females have made themselves in western society, and their easy mode life. What kind of female artists are amazing? Chinese, Asians, people who have been instilled by harsh family values of Asian culture and possibly lived a less privileged lifestyle, and possibly fat neckbeard(less) females who stay inside all day listening to Linkin Park. Many men realize no one really loves us, and we don't have pussies to get us shit, so we have to apply ourselves and bleed until we see real results.

The point is not really privilege, there are a lot of rich artists with amazing work.
The point is caring, without passion you won't do enough art to get good. And most women are very fickle with their passion, while most men are stupidly autistic with theirs. That's why tumblr is filled with rednose cutesy fanart from the latest trend from females, and academic shit that's terrible in every aspect except for one little thing from males.

You know, you'd think "colorful cute flowers, definitely female" but I wondered about why they were arranged to look like a sphere? That's interesting. Why were the colors messed with so much from flower to flower? Why do the flowers look like generic clip-art in the first place? Really inorganic in shape.
Then, "why would some girl bother with this sort of design? It's not really reaching the goal of being a visually appealing piece in a kawaii way, it looks more like it's proving some kind of point. It's almost scary."
I looked it up and it turns out it's done by a dude, and I'm not surprised.

I literally wrote a paragraph why in the post that you replied to.
I just imagine some art being done by a certain gender and it is sometimes strange. I turn to assuming the gender it would be least strange for.
For example, these comics. The artist's name is Joan so that led me to believe it was a woman, and everything felt so cold and humorous in a cruel way in these comics, so I thought it was some really deranged (yet badass) lady making this sort of stuff. Found out it was a dude named Joan (Catalan name) and it suddenly was a whole lot less weird and more expected (but I also stopped finding the artist as interesting).

Yes, sometimes I've seen some art and thought to myself "somehow, this looks feminine" and then found out that the artist was indeed female. I've often wondered what makes art look like it was done by a girl, and beyond particular subject matters, it's very difficult to define, though it's felt often... It's similar with different regions of the world, sometimes it's fun to look at some art and be able to say "oh, this is probably Russian, by how it's rendered", though the influence there can be more obvious than with gender.
It's a very interesting thing to think about for sure.

no, i haven't op. any time i've assumed over the years i've been wrong half the time, so i've just stopped assuming at this point. as a side, i'm not particularly interested in their gender when i could be being interested in their art instead. gender lines have gotten pretty blurred these days and it feels individuals can express themselves a bit more honestly this way; interests and styles picked up have more opportunity to cross, so i liked being wrong back when i thought i could tell people's gender from their art.

the easiest way to tell gender is by the content of what they draw. And even then, you can't be 100% sure.

fetish art with exaggerated body parts = guy drew it
skinny bodies with big eyes and some fashion = grill drew it.

naw, come on, this fucking thread stinks.

OF COURSE there are differences between men's art and women's art, it's because men and women have a different way of thinking. They have differences in the things that interest them. Women tend to like making calming, appealing art with calming and beautiful subjects (Pretty girls, animals, nice scenery, nicer themes) while men are more competetive and have a thing for more contrast and drama (more movement, rougher stuff, fights, monsters, robots)
This is not a WOMEN LIKE CUTE and BOYS LIKE GROSS statement, there's just a fucking tendency towards this stuff that only idiots deny.

Women and men can be just as good at art if they try. Shitty art comes from both sides. Stupid habits emerge from both sides.

Both styles have shared audiences and also some specialized audiences that enjoy their work. Why the fuck not.

However she is the exception, the other female otaku I've seen watch yuri and like 'shipping together' (or whatever it is called) Marcie and PB from AT. They seem too watch ecchi stuff and I'm afraid is for the same reason a guy would watch that (boobs!!) some even have 'male' displayed as their gender in their profiles although I know them IRL and know they are women.

People copy what they like, and teenagers especially are in a stage where they yet have to develop their own way.
There are a lot of dudes on tumblr who draw in that same 'infamous' tumblr artstyle. Tumblr just has more female users overall. In the same way there are a lot of weeb artists on dA of either gender. Concept art just concerns women less overall, with exception of the ones who both draw and are into games.
Its also true that on average women are more perceptive of colour and men tend to be better at spatial rotation, but it's also been shown that the difference diminishes once they start doing activities that relate to those areas (like vidya and art). Of course that doesn't mean that there aren't other physical and cultural differences that influence the outcome, but it's really not that black and white.

Exactly my point you idiot. If the artists who do stylized work are good and preferably male, it's not tumblr style, just a style tumblr copies. But if the artist is slightly less good and/or female, it's suddenly "tumblr style".

Some seem to think women have a "softer" approach whereas men have a harder approach. This is certainly true if we compare Jackson Pollock and Helen Frankenthaler.
>>1907520
>>1907527
But of course there are exceptions, here is a painting by Cassatt that takes a harder approach, versus a painting by Monet that takes a softer approach.
>>1907530
>>1907534
The style is of course influenced by the movement and school, but factors like Monet's eyesight or the lighting in London vs. wherever.

It should also be obvious that gender can have an affect on subject matter. Here we have a piece by Otto Dix that relates to his experiences with war, and a piece by Cassatt with subjects of motherhoood and domestic life.
>>1907530
>>1907539
We shouldn't treat these as strict rules, however. Kathe Kollwitz is a woman artist whose work often dealt with war, but she also explored the intersection of motherhood and war. And of course there are plenty of male genre painters and impressionists who were fond of domestic scenes.

I think the real question is what do we gain by profiling the artist? Do their experiences as one or the other gender influence and inform their work, or is it irrelevant to what they're creating? How much of popular 'male' and 'female' styles is due to cultural influences rather than something inherent in their gender or biology?

Evolution is something that happens naturally over time, but why fault someone for drawing what they like (esp, if they're good at it and making fame off of it)

To me men show a better ability to display/understand form and perspective, while women focus on composition, color, and detail.

Of course these are hard things to master, but I think each gender leans towards it's respective strong suits, generally.

Girls will copy an item and fit into their work.
Boys will copy a concept and fit into their theme.
Both will pander to millennials

Girls will be fashion forward, and socially conscious with their characters
Boys will be disorganized and unfocused with their characters
Both are young and dumb about the whole idea of character

Girls will study the figure and focus on having a clear read
Boys will study anatomy and focus on modeling the form
Both will suck at proportions and harmony

Girls are usually better at drawing natural landscapes
Boys are usually better at drawing dystopian cityscapes
Both will not understand perspective that well

Girls can easily do a gesture and manage a composition.
Boys will put the composition before the gesture
Both will have either very bad or a
very boring composition

Over all girls are better at managing an illustration. If the topic is open enough for them to play with they'll be very creative. While boys are better at managing a concept. If the topic flatters thier ego they'll be focused. However if both are young, 20ish, they'll be able extremely naive about communicating an idea, let alone have an idea worth communicating.

That's the exact thing I just can't wrap my head around. How come women like drawing sexy women? When guys draw musclebound guys I don't get that bisexual vibe from them, because the male body isn't eroticized in any way, is just some manly ugly looking thing covered in shadows or something. But when painting the female form is as if it was inherently erotic.

I am speaking from my own experience tho. Shilin has a girlfriend and some local female artists I've met seem to 'go either way'. There's this one... has a boyfriend, but she still draws 'Bubbleline' and so do many females, there's this other one and she IS a lesbian. Met this other one into drawing hentai, she has a boyfriend too but she used to have a girlfriend (got that vibe from her once speaking with her, another friend that knows her told me about her ex).

women aren't 'much better' at anything than males, aside from having tits and getting pregnant. women aren't built to create, analyze, or do anything cognitively demanding.

men compete on the world stage, and are given the tools to compete by nature. these are a sharp mind, a capable powerful body, intelligence, ambition, bravery etc.

women then compete over the top 10% of those men, and they tools they are given by nature to compete with are: a pretty face, a nice pair of tits, child bearing hips, a firm ass, a youthful appearance, a desire to support and nurture, etc.

i know this sounds incredibly sexist, but it is the way it is. the only reason this isn't widely accepted and recognized is because we are living in the age of political correctness. the extent of which is retarded, especially when it comes to women.

I wrote the post >>1907625 and if any of you had actually read the thing you would have noticed I didn't imply that girls are more emotionally expressive than boys. In fact the only thing I implied about emotions is that the two genders handle them in different ways, and that both expressive with them with the same control. Although the youthfulness in both genders fucks the whole work up, which was the the big implication I was going for.

Boys have a tendency to be self indulgent and boastful with expressing emotions in their work. They are every character they draw, and every scene is about their emotional world. They steal things in art that gratify a feeling of lust.

Girls have tendency to be self centered and gaudy with expressing emotions in their work. Every character they draw is about the situation they are relating to, and every scene is about them being in the situation. They steal things in art to gratify a feeling of importance.

And in the context of being young. Both are moody and naive. Both are mostly motivated to do their art for emotional attention. Both have a chip on their shoulder and think they know better. Both cry themselves to sleep over choices they made, or didn't make. Both suck at getting gud.

And both have extremely poor reading comprehension.

It's a funny observation I've made too. Out of the people I've asked if they'd kiss someone of the same sex, far more straight girls said they would than straight guys (there were none). This was back in high school though, I'm not sure I could as easily find so many situations to ask such a question now. That said I've met many more simply bisexual girls too. Of course it's only the observations of one person, but it may be indicative of some difference in sexual perception, due to social reasons or otherwise...

What I've said does and is relevant if you use some critical thinking skills and also learn what is being talked about to begin with, Anon.

The context of this thread is about young artist now, like the demographic of those on 4chan or tumblr or deviantart or facebook, and NOT the entire history of artist in the western tradition. Learn context you fucking morons. I thought it was pretty obvious seeing how OP used an example of concept art and tumblr in the comparison.

I made an argument from local observation, you made a poor interpretation and proceeded to argue retarded like. If you weren't so bad at interpreting things you wouldn't be here making such a retarded argument to begin with. Yeah, you're that dumb.

How young? early 20s? Because all you need to do is look at the art in male dominated places like conceptart and cghub and compare it to female dominated places like tumblr to know which sites have better landscape painting.
