>There’s gotta be some kind of answer.
there is. over and over on this board people tell you but you don't want to hear it because you want to be spoonfed your unrealistic dreams.

>functional art culture
>art at the core of japanese society
>society with high standards of quality
>very few cargo culters/ clueless post-modernists breaking everything
>not making art into failed science

the list goes on but basically go fuck yourself. just spend a few days on this board and should know why western countries suckass at art.

brain creates god. brain also creates your subjective reality. what's the problem, atheist?

OP doesn't want to be an artist. he just wants the same illustrator skills thousands of others worldwide have. that's why he hates the journey and dreads taking 'blind alleys' or anything not a maximally efficient learning path.

fuck off back to your video games.

>the brain is the most complex and most mysterious element in the known universe
>creativity, as a central part of what makes the brain so amazing, is "clinically proven" to support your argument
>>check out this convenient meme dichotomy!
>even in your own petty world of intellectual shortcuts: creative types can still enhance their god-given creativity.

financially speaking, being creative is treated as extremely risky behavior and it gets shutdown by any risk holder within their power. This sets the mood for 'creative' industries today. Even games have become so dogshit horrid that even hardcore gamers have moved onto things like CARDGAMES to satiate their itch. It's only going to get worse because the working class think the world is an unstoppable progress machine. The reality however is we're offloading intelligence into machines and losing creative power because of it.

why do you abruptly stop at davinci? do you think modern painters didn't introduce new concepts from physics and technology into their work?

>There's a reason art and understanding of perspective seemed to regress in the Medieval period
quality of life took a nosedive. people got deeply religious in abstract impoverished ways. if artists were isolated but quality of life was better the art imo would have been very interesting. alas historicism is bullshit and we will never know.

as for your criticism of deconstructionism: deconstruction is itself an a powerful mechanism that has evolved from the same lineage you use in example to argue against it. deconstruction and breaking things to see how they truly work is *for* improvement. having everyone just toppling onto the same knowledge treadmill makes for a very poor knowledge-discovering strategy. it's akin to one mega-organism versus a wide diverse zoo.

i didn't know the sole purpose of this board is to force shitty artistic values down beginner's throats and deny all non-technical discussion. i understand that's what it currently is though.

also you're wrong on the technical aspect. there's plenty of other objective qualities in artwork that can be learned. morons just have a hard time talking about things that can't be reduced to proving dissenting opinion Wrong with math/science-like things (perspective, anatomy). notice how composition is rarely if ever a topic on /ic/. the entirety of drawing is reduced to 'fundies'. painting is a complete fuckin mystery. the list can go on.

all art knowledge was divined through the first original humans. all art knowledge is passed on through masters in schools. no art is created outside the divine lineage.

Aaaah, at least, an OP image that perfectly captures the feeling of being in LAS.

fuck, totally forgot about the "sincerely, a concerned parent" meme too.

So this is what you qualify as a time when you "need to be" an asshole?

he doesn't seem to upload anything anywhere.. i'd patreon the shit out of him if he decided to start posting sketchbook pages there

>>2564631
>don't know what to post as 5th favorite

>>2547895

Sorry, I guess? The OP didn't say "bitch and moan about your mean mommy and daddy"

>>2504991

Imagine if you spent a tenth of the time you spend shitposting actually drawing, Nosebro, you might actually be competent by now.

>>2316946

That was fast.

Wish I could help OP, but I don't work much with pencil. Hopefully someone less retarded than this guy will come along.

You'd just go there and bitch anyway.

thanks for taking the time, this must be a real challenge for you to make these useful posts every thread.

Here we fucking go again.

>but don't worry! I'l handhold you, its called humility

I'm sure the condescending cunt here knows all about it, that's why he assumes everyone will listen to his useless critique.

It actually amazes me how many people on this board are so far up their own asses and get indignant whenever anyone doesn't take whatever worthless vague critique they shit out by sucking their cock all thread or something. I find it especially strange considering everyone is constantly trying to humble one another by shitting all over them.

>bitching about shills whenever anyone mentions anything that could potentially be paid for

Here we go.
I heard enough of this fucking constant shill witch hunt nonsense on /v/.

At least you tried. Someone will take the bait.
