I think he's starting to cut corners, in a good way. Working months on a single piece is not quite the optimal work process in this time and age.

This piece is much less appealing than his better works, but I believe he's experimenting and trying out new ways how to fasten his workflow, while keeping the impact and quality intact. I'm sure he'll find his optimal solution very soon.

Uh, no. What I mean is, Jaime's work is boring to look at. Craig's work is also boring to look at. Ruan Jia's work is gravitating towards being boring to look at for exactly the same reasons as the former artists I mentioned.

He's not doing any of the things that made him stand out so much in the first place, anymore. His color harmonies are diminishing, his forms are getting flatter, and his brushwork is pretty unremarkable now.

Top that off with the fact that he's never been a great draftsman to begin with. Now he's playing to none of his original strengths and still hasn't patched up his most major flaw.

You don't get it. It's more than just rendering. He understands how light works, he understands texture, he understands appealing shape design, he understands composition, his command over his values is arguably the best in the digital art scene, he understands edge control, he's not very good at drawing, so it's not surprising that his perspective is a little shaky, but it doesn't destroy his work, and to top it off, he(used to) has a really unique sense of color harmony that was subtle and pleasing to the eye.

Make him paint loose and sketchy like Jaime, and he'd still have a fuck-ton going for him.

He means that you're missing the balance between "artistic" and "technical".

The painting you posted isn't deep. It's just artistic for the sake of being artsy. There's no real idea behind it, just technique. And uninformed technique at that. The whole piece just feels arbitrary and loud to me. Just look at the number of tangents in the comp, or how the colors don't really harmonize in a pleasing way because it's a rainbow palette. Amateur.

A tangent is when the outline of two objects are touching, rather than overlapping.

This could be solved by doing a few comps on a scrap of paper in pencil before committing to the painting. I would also recommend figuring out your value comp early on before you start adding colors willy-nilly.

tangents aren't always an issue, it's only a problem when it creates ambiguity or flattens the space or draws the eye where you don't want it drawn, it's not just straight up bad for two objects to kiss

Which is pretty much all of the time. Even in a rare case where it's not destroying information, it tends to stand out and is unpleasant to look at. So really, there's no good reason to allow them to slip up in your work.

yeah it always seemed more to me a thing illustrators worry about, cause theres plenty of examples of great fine arts paintings with tangents. regardless, I fixed 1 2 4 and edited 5 a little even though it wasn't quite a tangent anyways. not quite sure what 3 was supposed to point out. I like creating small triangles in my composition like 3 and 4, or doing a sharp outline like at the left eye on the left vase, where its an indent or a point and then a line shooting out straight across from the inside of the indent or point, which in this case was the bottom pane of the window sill.

that might be the case with academic art and illustration, but there have been plenty of representational art movements that very much tried to make their work look flatter on purpose. Post-Impressionism was almost completely about flattening images, and it doesn't take much searching to find tangents in famous works by them. all depends on whether or not the artist does it on purpose and has a reason to.

Well, you said you believed you were much better at making pieces of art than Ruan Jia.

Kinda easy to claim that when you're pursuing a style of art that doesn't care about the classical, technical approach to getting good. If you don't have the same goals as an artist that someone in the illustration field does, than comparing yourself to them is comparing apples to oranges.

>Make him paint loose and sketchy like Jaime, and he'd still have a fuck-ton going for him.
Evidentially, he is shit at that. Look at any given bg of his. He fucking sucks at artistic hinting at shape and depth. He needs his overrendering badly.

It's more the fact that he's simply posting more of his unfinished work than he used to. Amateurs like you are always so easily fooled by professionals who only ever upload very selective images, thinking this is somehow a quality standard for every single thing they draw or paint.

>doing hundreds of silly sketches for a painting that you've envisioned right away, literally losing the initial concept instead of tackling the matter straight on
>doing all this shit to get it "right"
>Ruan Jia

You are retarded, and literally don't know who Jia is.
You don't even know that old masters usually spent months, even years on some basic oil paintings.

And yes, while he spends months on personal paintings, he spends at least weeks on work related. He even got let off by an employer because of it.

Just get off 4chan newfag, you literally don't know how to paint.

Where did I say that you moron? Just trying to explain to you that alongside his highly finished pieces that he uploads, he now also uploads more of his less polished work now.

Uh, no. There's clearly a change in "direction". He's just doing boring work that doesn't really stand out, now. It's got nothing to do with him getting worse as an artist, it's more about him becoming uninteresting.

And what are you talking about? You're an amateur too, lmao.
