/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

i started drawing more seriously last year on april 8th. since then i have 330 unique drawings, each i think averages about 2 hours. its a lot of work. one thing i noticed... if i put the same amount of time into a drawing its not really much better than it was last year. i can make a better drawing than i could last year but it takes me a lot more time. so i might start slowing down and stop posting daily for the sake of posting and instead focus on quality and try to make my pictures as good as i can.

it feels weird to tell myself to calm down slow down, relax. but maybe quality over quantity is the way to go.

breathe.

I noticed a lot of begs will upload a piece of shit and then try to qualify it by saying "I did this in 43 seconds" or whatever. Like we're supposed to give them a few points for speed.

Well I was gonna say your drawing is out of perspective, anatomically incorrect has bad proportions, line quality and no contrast, but I didn't realize you finished it in 5 seconds. For 5 seconds, this squiggle is fantastic. Here, take my wallet. Marry my daughter.

what's the point of doing something shitty, fast?

No one is impressed.

Maybe you have to get good slow, and then you can speed it up. But I don't think you can go fast and then get good.

We're all gmi if we just relax.
