Can you tell the gender of an artist just by looking at their art and be honest do you think one sex is better than the other at painting /drawing on average?

Often times I can tell someone's gender by looking at their art. It's exactly how you would expect it, either soft or hard, bendy or mechanical.

I think females are naturally better at art. However, when you look at the top artists (be it stylized or realistic) they're all male.

I suppose it ties into the variability hypothesis. Girls are mostly all average at art, and boys are more often either really bad or really good.

There's always outliers, no one claims to have a 100% rate of accuracy but stuff like pic related are obviously drawn by women in my experience. And yes it's a girl the one who did it. Maybe it's the soft faces, or subject, or colors who knows. But also most of the time when I see pastel colors ESPECIALLY pink I just know it was a woman.

Also whenever a girl isn't depicted as sexy or "waifu material" in some other way (overly casual girls are usually also drawn by men since that's the kind of gf they want), it was probably a girl who did it since they see their gender as normal without fetishizing themselves.
It's mostly experience I guess. But stereotypes are right more often than not and pink and cute is for girls.

>Can you tell the gender of an artist just by looking at their art

Sometimes. Female artists more often make use of color and pattern and male artists tend to make more use of form and shadow. There are certain color palettes that almost guarantee the artist is a woman. Also subject matter, but that's less important than approach to color and form/shape language.

Oddly I see more female artists working in a "male" style than vice-versa.

>and be honest do you think one sex is better than the other at painting /drawing on average?

No. The idiots who come in here spouting off about how men are better than women at art have no personal accomplishments to speak of, much like the uneducated, impoverished white-trash fellow who is extremely keen on proving the superiority of his race.

Men are better than women at everything on average because normal to pretty women are given everything without trying and ugly women get shit just by whining and being easy. Meanwhile men have to compete with other men for attention.

Hell a lot of female athletes like boxers and fencers have to train with male juniors because the difference in skill between a competitive woman and a normal woman tends to be brutal.

[Anonymous No.3897011]

>>3896969
This isn't althletics and let's ignore personality and intelligence for a minute because with art we're talking outliers and none of it has been mapped to art anyway.

A major difference is that young girls aren't usually allowed to fester and rot in their rooms or pursue loner hobbies. They are dragged into public at every opportunity where boys can take on "acceptable" hobbies or be forgotten. Every point between middle school and graduating college is planned and taken. Most people who are interesting or skilled spent a significant period alone, festering and fermenting, absorbing ideas and busting ass.

There's this phenomenon where women go fucking stir crazy after having a baby and doing the stay at home thing and come out interesting. They bloom in their late 20s and the turnaround is amazing. They get hobbies, become knowledge. Some just watch Netflix and get depressed but that's on them.

I've been grinding perspective and dynamism ever since I started drawing because that's the kind of art I love. I'm still not as good as my male friends who don't even focus on it, it just comes naturally.
Because I've been grinding perspective and forms for so long I rarely color anything, or study color at all. But when I do paint something I'm always surprised at how good it looks. Those same male friends ask me for color advice and help.

I think that has more to do with females seeing other females as competition much more than males do.

female elephants are lead by a matriach and there is no squabbling over positions; it is respected.
female horse herds are lead by 1 mare.
most species that practice 1 male to many females run the males out of the group. 1 reproducing female to many reproducing male species usually keep the female members of the species and recruit them for use in parental care of her own offspring, instead of disposing of them.

Well, for one, interacting with women develops different parts of the male brain and psyche that we might not have had focus on before. Not necessarily stupidity but a different train of thought processing.
And there was another thread sometime ago where this was brought up but yes, you can in fact, tell the gender (and sexuality) by the art the character makes.
This would mean that yes, the abilities will be dictated by the biological makeup of the human body creating the work, and it will allow them to demonstrate their abilities at an efficient others could not achieve.

TL'DR

Yes.

[Anonymous No.3900190]

And that's why they don't evolve.
Any species that rely on matriarchies or discards the males after reproduction are doomed to stunt their evolutionary development.
You need males to carry out and protect the group, build stuff and be role models for the younger males of the group.

That's why we humans got to the top of the chain. Thanks to the patriarchy.

[Anonymous No.3901325]

Worked in art fields for 15 years now. Everything from graphic design to traditional/digitial painting. I notice most women seem to reach a point where they simply stop. I'm not sure if it's a lack of ambition or they just by some strange collective feel the need to stop improving. There are plenty of men who do as well - but men whom also push themselves daily to improve.

Example: I was part of a large department where we made playbills, brochures, and custom illustrations for events. I'd say half the men pushed themselves to consistently learn new tools and innovate. Sometimes they'd even get in arguments with management to make sure something was done correctly and formatted well.

There was only one woman there who did this as well. She did graphic design and was absolutely excellent at creating ads for businesses and correcting mistakes. A true wiz. Other than that most of the females didn't push themselves unless required. They weren't lazy. They did well, they just didn't really press themselves.

It was a predominately female workplace too. Like 4 women per 1 man. I have no idea really. Maybe women just aren't as competitive. There are plenty of women capable of doing well and pushing their standards, they just seem to often become complacent earlier.

Literally every field. It's a lack of ambition combined with the knowledge that they don't have to work. My dad was a huge fuck up and my mom's parents were hardcore immigrants. She really didn't have the ability to not work. But outside of rare exceptions like her, I see many women just quitting their job as soon as it's not fun for them anymore. They can just live off men parasitically. Whether through a boyfriend /husband /father or through social programs. Many just go to school forever and have no worries about debt. Unless a woman has a drug problem or severe mental illness there is no reason why one would end up destitute or homeless or anything like that. There are hundreds of safety nets in place. Working for them... Lol they used to not work, then they demanded the right to be included in our boys club. They don't have to work to survive. They want to work because it annoys them that we do things without them. The idea of equality is an absolute farce.
