If you can't understand why that artist has 50k followers you should unironically give up on making it as an artist online. You have no idea what people find attractive, funny or relatable. You have no idea how to get someone to experience an emotion when looking at your art. I laughed out loud when this guy >>6962295 showed the broken perspective of the OP pic. His utter inability to understand why people like that type of art, so the only thing he could criticize was the technical side: The only thing guys like him know and have experience in. Keep grinding your anatomy, perspective and boxes, anon. While others draw art that people find joy and appeal in you'll keep soaking up more technical knowledge and continue to feed your delusions about one day making it. I promise, even if you attempted to emulate that artist's style and humor, your art would still pale in comparison because you are an autist who is unable to understand people and how they work. You are a complete and utter soullet and you should give up NOW.

theyre unironically all mentally ill and draw exclusively for the attention of retarded online strangers, never for themselves. someone who thrives off that attention will never have enough of it. thats why they this type of artist always eventually breaks, whether its suddenly disappearing, constant breaks, public stunts for attention, or mental breakdowns.

The only problem I've ever had with this type art is its naked, exhibitionistic inauthenticity. It's the social media equivalent of publicly prostrating one's naked body for the appeasement of the crowd, for laughs. Far from being "soul", it rather has the superficial characteristics of Soul, but is in fact is algorithm-slop at its most desperate. Like I give a shit that it's "badly" drawn. I enjoy some tkmiz. I'm a huge homo queer for eccentric and outsider styles. I just can't stand how easy this is.

think about it logically and how social media is currently evolving and what it takes for someone to gain a s shred of a following nowadays
These are you options
>draw good, steadily improve = post one work every few weeks, get your posts drowned out by all the other spam, high risk of alienating a huge chunk of normies because the image requires actually looking at and they will ignore because looking at an image for 2 seconds is too much for the average consumer
or
>draw the bare minimum, do low effort crap like fake wholesome shit or woe is me trash in flat styles = post every single day maybe multiple times and get a following because people see it more often and they think an active account is worth following because """content""" and images are incredibly easy to read so it's an instant neuron activation and gets the average normie to engage/like
Social media artists who focus on getting a following don't care about the craft or getting good, they just want to reach something with their art so they can get validation and possibly money from retards and normies.
>it's complete soulless trash

in my eyes, "soul" is art that clearly has hard work, time, and love put into it, even if it doesnt have immediate and broad face-value appeal- which is ironically the complete opposite of these deceptive twitter trend artists that draw the equivalent of fast food.
theyre allergic to hard work and improvement, and instead opt to churn out generic anime girl meme pictures because normies will always eat it up and praise it as "soulful."
theyre "winning" and getting the attention they wanted, but would you really be happier if people knew you for making meaningless, low effort trash that caters to unfunny meme posters on twitter?
