/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

Fold, pose fabric in real life, on a chair, see what it does, even better if you have a mannequin.
I just do studies of that and look at other artists work at the same time, see how they painted what I am trying.

The details an artist decides to leave out are as important as what they keep in. It's what makes a painting a painting and not a photo, it's what makes a painting individual to an artist.
When you copy every pore, blemish and imperfection mechanically from a photo, with no selectivity what you get is a photocopy. Cameras have no taste, this shit has zero artistic value in my opinion.
I can admire the craftsmanship and patience it took to make but I could say the same about someone completing a 10,0000 piece jigsaw. There is no creativity here.
