>How do you manage to maintain...
People don't... do this... This is an artwork and critique board. In which the general culture is to improve at art. Because this is 4chan, the culture is to mock those who have seemed to failed at that goal. So anons will be vitriolic towards those who fail at improving at art. There is an /alt/. There is an /asg/. In the draw thread, people have different styles. This board is far from technically and stylistically uniform. What you percieve as uniformity is simply due to the fact that you have seen anons mocking works because they have shoddy execution, not because they stray from technical and stylistic norms. Also, your definition of soul is flawed. There are plenty of "soulful" artists that dont follow your definition of soul (moebius, monet).
Your language is fucking stupid. What is "a framework of instantly stimulating fundamental elements such as..."??? What the fuck does this mean? Art has soul because it's interesting? You figured it out, people will find meaning in engaging art, good job. The way you define soulless is stupid too. What is the "way that is contrasted and..."? You just said mistakes (which implies that the artist did something that they were not striving to achieve) make an art have soul, yet here you say that falling short from achieving what is strived (technical excellence) is soulless?
