You do know abstract art is meant to represent something? Like, as in an abstraction of reality?

>> No.3378734

Looks great, just take more care with your hatching. Hatching is done really crudely. Your lines meet up where they should not and you don't even bother to lift the pen up properly where you think it won't be noticed. You have decent line control in outline, but you throw it away when you shade for some reason.

No need to link me that. I know the full story.

Degenerate art at the beginning, then CIA psy-ops and now just a money laundering scheme

>> No.3378813

Looks great OP, but its hard to give a critique of your style based on just one example.

I'd say from a marketing/selling standpoint if you combine portraiture or figurative elements with the abstract stuff your work would have more appeal. Just a thought.

Thats literally what everyone thinks about art but if you tried it would probably turn out like shit for you

OP, to please the braindead representationalists just plop a smug anime girl face on the top and wrap the rest in a kimono pattern. they will think it looks good. if not, it means you haven't applied enough lighting.

These are nice, but they’re nice because they have some recognizable “abstracted” forms. The OP is a confusing mash of mechanical and organic looking pieces that don’t look like an object that the audience could possibly interact with, in essence it’s meaningless because to have meaning, an object needs to be a tool of some kind. I have nothing against it and I recognize the mechanical skill and creative element, but it still has no meaning to me because I have no way of interacting with it. When you walk into a room, you see what you can interact with first. Humans prioritize forms in a similar way when it comes to art, I think. You can be transported to a landscape, you can interact with a person, exc.
I’m not a professional critic and my own art is pretty nontraditional, but this is just why I think these appeal to me and the OP doesn’t.

you know this is art right? you ignore the whole aesthetic world. like are flowers pretty to you because you know their function? you sound like a robot, how did you pass the captcha?

Not much hierarchy happening, making it look flat and oddly homogenous. The ideal is to draw in a way that each part has to sit exactly were it is and couldn't be moved elsewhere. With these I get the feeling it doesn't matter because it's all the same.

also: it's also lacking flow. It will look way cooler when there's an overall flow to your shapes. Brought fourth by perspective, or other continuous lines. Your first piece in this thread has some flow but it's clunky when you break it down to the basic shapes. The flow of the basic shapes should be satisfying.
