Outside of the internet how many of you guys actually have art friends that you hang out with and draw with? I feel as I get older, art has became very lonely for me. I used to being able to go to museums, and sketching all the time with friends, but now everyone is so busy that it's hard to make plans. Don't get me wrong I dont need people to push me to draw, it's just sometimes it's nice to have someone to talk and drawing with.

>tldr I'm an artist and I have no friends

yeah i do have some friends. my sister lives nearby, is a total sweetheart and i see her for breakfast every saturday. everyone else lives miles and miles away, but we have our yearly get togethers. i think you have to be a bit of loner to do art. it certainly feels that way to me.

Nope, no drawing buddies here.

And I'm fine with that, prefer to be alone when I draw or paint anyhow.

It's a bit of the hermit deal as anon mentioned (>>2018744), and also a bit that by the end of the day it's nice to go to my garage-cave and have some silence.

I am the one with one friend. I used to have lots, but almost allof them made really bad life choices, so I did not want to talk to them. I occasionally talk to my friend's friends. I'm his only close friend, though. None of my family likes me except my brother and my dad. My dad is always pretending not to like me because my mom hates me, and my brother is getting older and more distant. I like having only one friend. It is nice. He is my husband.
I feel like all of the robots from /r9k/ are moving to other boards due to the recent flood of normies and women at that board.

I have no art friend outside of the internet... and no art friends on the internet
I have a few people I talk to in real life and even though I can't compare art or discuss current favourites, I'm ok with bumbling along in life

I'm happy with being on my own most of the time

Maybe I won't be happy in the future but I'm OK now so I'll tackle that issue if and when I face it

I had art friends, but they became successful and no longer have time to talk to a pleb like me. I had (have?) this one friend who I used to talk to everyday, we were best buds at Uni, doing all our assignments together, now we haven't spoken in a year because he's a big shot working in a respected studio.

I'm not that offended, because he's probably made a circle of friends 'in-the-know', I hope to become successful and get in that circle one day too. But it hurts, you know. I try not to think about it.

I am 27, no friends here, live alone, however I have family I talk to and visit almost daily. I work out, work in retail, and draw several hours everyday. I enjoy being a loner, I think I'm in the perfect position to become good at something, and I chose drawing several years ago, however I spent a lot of time partying with friends, and the past couple years I have strayed away from all of that to take my art more seriously. I am happy, I know everything will work itself out, and I have no problem with motivation and putting in work, so I feel very confident about how my skill will develop throughout the years.

how do you even make art friends? i wish i had made some art friends when i was younger.
nowadays when i meet other artists the relationship is usually defined by wether i'm worse or better than them. i think i'm looking at it too competitively.

how does one get casual art friendships?

Yes I am but he only tells me that I am very good and he just says what he likes about it and says he can't find anything he doesn't like or that stands out as weird. He only pointed something out once. Though, I usually can't find anything major wrong with his stuff either. He's at least twice as good as me

My dad and one of my sisters are both classically-trained visual artists, so I get pretty inspired by them. I didn't opt for the art school path but drawing and illustration has always been a big pastime for me.

I always wanted more (unrelated by blood) artistic friends, but I never managed to find any. Lately though, I've met a couple of art school grads at my workplace, and I love when they share their new work and even their WIP.
And the best part is getting feedback about your own work from people who are talented/experienced enough to give meaningful criticism (most of the time).

Relatedly, one of my FB acquaintances is a drawing beginner but she considers herself to be pretty talented. She posts her shit in an album on FB and routinely gets 50-100 likes for each piece she puts up. All the comments are variations on "omg ur so talented" and I think that's the problem with not having any talented artistic friends - you live in a bubble where you don't get any solid feedback and therefore can't improve.
But she also lacks a lot of self-awareness. Oh well.

Yeah, he seems very humble about it, though. I have practically begged him to tell me that something is wrong with it. He has pointed out that I was lazy with things or that I have the capability to put more effort into the coloring or something, but that's it. Don't get me wrong, he's the sweetest ever and makes me extra happy, but I just wish I could look at my art from someone else's eyes.

I have online art friends and irl art friends.. But my irl friends give horrible crits and aint serious about art at all. My online friends are a huge motivation. I also had an art bf irl, but he wasnt serious enough and I couldnt do art bc of him, so I broke up. Got the decision of being forever alone and gittin good, might make me more happy than having someone.

My gf tries to do this shit. Tell her to fuck off. Shit's annoying honestly. When I'm in art mode, I don't give a shit about sex. Gaming? Whatever, I'm DTF. Art? No, fuck off.

On topic, all my art friends from college turned into obnoxious "social justice" morons who do nothing but bitch about non-issues on FB. I hardly ever talk to them. Luckily I don't live in the same area I went to college anymore so I don't have to deal with them in person. None of my offline friends are art people. Mostly just fellow gamers or co-workers.

I used to have a group of friends that all loved drawing, but then just over a year ago I had to move to a different province and now I don't have any friends at all. I hardly ever even talk to anyone outside of my family.

i used to not have anyone to talk to but i started taking classes around my hometown, since i couldn't afford art center (51k+ a year ayy) and it's helped me improve a whole bunch and also feel good about things. its nice knowing people and some of them even work in the industry even though i'll never get there for awhile, lol.

I went to an art magnet highschool and continued on to art school after that. It's now two years after graduation, and I'm still close friends with 7 people who went to school with me. None of them draw anymore.

The ones who didn't go to a college pissed away the years neeting and playing video games. The ones who actively wanted to pursue art as a career got their art degrees but haven't even drawn anything since.

I often suggest drawing hangouts to them but everyone avoids the idea of drawing now. What's most depressing is that a lot of them were actually very skilled and could have gotten art jobs if they had tried.

just school chums (i'm art school fag). All we talk about is art. Relationships are only art deep.

Just go to art school... a serious one, not a slacker one. I go to gallery openings all the time with them, travel abroad with them and do art shit there, meet up and drink and draw, etc. Nothing but art - my life. Now back to drawing I go.

None, that's why we all have gathered together round the reactor.

Art pros a) don't have the time
art amatuers b) don't have the jobs
.But this can change as a lot uf us hope and put their effort into (me too).

Not too many people are able and willing to spend their time on art as they want a career plus the "safety" it offers to found families and live their lives in what can be called a safe harbour.
Choosing art as an occupation besides your work as an psychologist is like leaving the boat...

This was like 4 years ago. Sorta grew apart from all of my friends, probably due being too focused on my art hobby. Haven't seen my friend in at least 3 years. Right now I've managed to complete the rough sketch of the drawing. Though I'll probably scrap it and make a new one. I've gotten much better, but I still feel like I'm not good enough to make it look the way I want to be.

I have no idea if I'll run into my friends again to even show them my art, but I'm ashamed of not having anything nice and completed to show them, so a part of me is hoping I don't even run into them until I actually have completed material.

I've never had an art friend except my senior year of high school when me and this chick would draw in the art room during lunch and eventually started talking to each other and found out we had the same tastes in anime and even both hung out on /a/.... good times. I miss that.

I hope she's still drawing 'cause she was good. Maybe I'll find her tumblr one day?

I'm a professional artist living in Germany, Berlin. I'm completely alone. Despite my efforts I don't have any friends to speak of or anyone I can talk to. I just finished a big gig and I should be happy and proud but I feel nothing because not a single soul gives the slightest shit. /ic/ is the only place, where I can be social.

Honestly, I'm extremely close to offing myself. Being a professional freelance artist is a waking nightmare.
