It's fun tho.

And if they are good their work will be remembered for years.

Writers write for several hours across several years just for no one to read that shit because looking is easier than reading

If you're doing it for social approval you're not gonna make it

cooks slave in the kitchen for hours preparing a meal that will be consumed within 10 minutes.
whats your point?

>>4326273
Git gud or fuck off, Wheeler.

>>4326273
Ironically you posted an image from a show that a lot of people have spent a lot more than a few seconds looking at.
I think what you say is true if we're JUST talking about artists who make a series of unrelated static 2D images. I have to admit that I've never seen the point of having an Instagram or a Patreon where you just post lots of art, and people look at it because it's... art, or something. But animation, comics, and video games have the ability to be a lot more meaningful and impactful to people. Those are the living art forms of today and that's where the most opportunity is.

>>4326273
I have a compulsion to create.
What matters is that someone somewhere saw it, and now it's gone.
True art, is an explosion.

>>4326341
Deidara pls

Just draw for yourself, idiot

>>4326273
The feeling of somebody else appreciating your art compares nothing to creating something that personally excites and surprises you. External validation is meaningless, good art gets made because it has to exist, not because it has to be seen. The artist is both the taster and the producer, and if you don't derive pleasure from tasting your own creations, what makes you think other people will? Good work starts inside you, not outside of you.

>good art gets made because it has to exist
this has to exist

>>4326273
i draw so i can jerkoff to my own drawings, idc if anyone else likes or remembers them

>>4326273
>creating takes more time than consuming
what a fucking revolutionary take

>>4326273
Basically, yeah.
The fun comes in making it and leaving an impact for those few seconds.

If I'm able to make a connection through my work, then I'm happy.

>>4326301
I think that every artists deep inside wants a little status and recognition from other people they just aren't open with it.

>>4328258
Im not

I've seen people save and repost my art calling it what they wish something was more like.

That sort of thing makes me very happy.

>>4326273
Take a break from art if you care about others option that much

>>4326273
God I want Joey Wheeler to fuck my sopping wet pussy and creampie me while that dice guy watches in the corner tied up.

>>4326643
when will i start liking my own art

>>4326273
you swallowed the "fan art/ internet famous" black pill. I swallowed mine after seeing an infinite scrolling page of OC's for video games and comics that would never be made.
You're going to have to try to make real art instead of illustrations now.
Otherwise you're going to be like the rest of this thread. Coping
Waiting for the next Bowsette so they can "stand out"

I draw for my wife first, the internet second.

Based

>>4328280
On a safe or dangerous day?

>>4328337
Dangerous! And he can watch again and again every time I fuck Joey as my preggo belly gets bigger

>>4329698
Good girl.

>>4328307
What is real art? Fine art portraits?

yup

>>4328261
Not him but I also live for myself but I don't think there's any value for art if other people can't see it.

To chase the artist dream takes a special kind of stupid, one that goes against all biological urges.

If one has been bitten by the phantasma, the craze, the rage, the rush, to master the craft of visual art then there are no rules, only tools.

This is your dream, make it real or not, the choice is yours.
The painter sees the cherubim angels dancing and doth partake in ale or wine. Bread and Coffee are the only thing a diseased mind need muster.

Thy chariot is thy wrist, imagine pegasus dancing along thy fingertips and bend before the masters of anatomy, of form, of virtue, of virtue.

To study art is to partake in the good, the honest, the meal of man, the farmer never left us. We desire to see growth and we are not satisfied with the lousy everyday crop,

Some would like you to believe what you are doing is deception, so challenge the hater. Make your drawn chair cushion look so comfy that one would value the aesthetic pause above all else.

Then, Diana erupts and ye are left to the soul crushing and bone chilling dust motes of the everyday. Carry thy chalice.
Do no drink the miasma.

you could say the same for sculpting, building, molding of everyday objects

>>4328258
Nah, I don't even share my art unless someone really wants to see it anymore. It's all for me.

>>4329791
>>4328261
Brothers if you don't let other people see your art you wouldn't know if your art is objectively good or not and ignoring fans that might actually really like your art.

You're living like schizophrenic who masturbates to himself for his own pride.
If it only makes you feel good. I guess it's fine.

You can also just make an account posting your art not saying something and ignore what they want you to draw. It's not like you will be harmed in some way ?

To answer your "I never understood" part... I want to create comics for the exact reason you mentioned, because I want people to spend time with my work. BUT, to get that readership nowadays you need a somewhat established fanbase, and you get that fanbase by pandering to social media. So yeah, I have an insta and I hate HAVING TO do it, except:

1. It's good for inspiration and motivation
2. I'm building some friendships with other artists
3. I have people who regularly comment on my work (these are the people :most likely" to buy my stufd)
4. It pushes me to finish stuff otherwise it feels like I'm drawing in a void
5. I'll have an X number of people to market to when I get my comic done

What I don't understand is people who have an insta and don't use hashtags, connect with people, etc. It's a SOCIAL thing... you should use it that way.

>>4326733
Based and coompilled

I draw for several hours so someone else can jerk off for 30-45 minutes and I can buy mcdonalds. It makes me proud of myself.

>>4329709
your own ideas self contained in an image, meant to impart thoughts or emotions in the viewer. Not pretty or cool because it's a short live burst of interest.

>>4326273
now imagine how much time and effort has gone into a piece of bread you eat in 10 seconds

>>4329993
This is the reason why I don't drink from glass water.
Just drinking the tip and you need to wash everything ? Fucking bullshit. I'll just drink it without touching the tip. I only need to clean plates.

>>4326341
basedo

>>4326273
remember that you're your first and most loyal fan
create, draw enjoy the process and improve for yourself first and foremost
sharing it to the pleb and having them like it is just a bonus

>>4326273
That's why you should do actual paintings or sell b your art not just post it on deviant art.

>>4328303
after mastering the basics and then being able to change it up how you want atleast thats what im telling myself
