Hello!! My name is Ian and I'm into very detailed art, now if I'm going to be honest with you I'm not great at art at all, but hopefully with the help of everyone here I will be able to accomplish what I want!! As of the moment I have no way of publishing my work, so for the moment I'll just be getting used to the layout and everything this place has to offer.

A little about me!!
I've been drawing since I could move my hands. Unfortunately I've gotten into the habit of staying in my comfort zone, recently I've been trying to get out of it. I would like brutal honesty when it comes to my art, as I haven't yet found a place that will tell me honestly what I need to work on. Right now I'd say I'm in the cartoon style(?) so everything isn't realistic. One of my several goals is to get into drawing backgrounds/scenes.
̊˙˚˙
Goals:
- Get into drawing realistic entity's
- Get into the habit of going out of my comfort zone
- Get some feedback and guidance
- Make some decent scenery
- Draw unique characters
- Get out of the same face syndrome
Hello everyone, nice to meet you all. I study art from the internet. I heard that critique is so important to improving on art, so I joined this forum. I wish I could make a lot of friends so I can get a lot of advice and have great discussion about art.
A little bit about myself I'm 19 years old and I actually go to art college, but my art college is suck, they don't teach anything. That's why I go to the internet to find a better way to learn art.
I'm a teenager(14), and I am still new to art, and to forums.
I have been drawing, doodling, sketching, etc. for a few years now, but I'm still not that good at it.
I usually draw random things, or copy images from the internet. I try different mediums, but the only one I don't suck in is probably graphite pencils, and maybe pen. I don't know why, but I've always been terrible at working with colors.
You ever had someone start a text convo with "Oh, hi"? Drives me nuts. Anyway...
My name is Nellie, and I'm more or less a self-taught artist. I've been drawing since before I could remember, so, much of my life. But I did get some formal training in college.
I'm new to forums, so this is weird for me. Lots of stuff to learn here. Etiquette things, exploring the community... etc. But I like what I see here so why not give it a go?
Recently I started working on a webcomic. It's taken up a good 95% of my time and energy outside of my full-time job. It's not a complaint; it's a project I am absurdly passionate about. But it has made me super aware of where I am lacking as an artist. Since starting the project, I haven't been able to properly allocate time to improve upon areas that seriously need work, which are mostly gestures, inking, anatomy, and foreshortening.
I'm looking to put aside more time to get better at full-body anatomy and gestures, but of course, the goal is always to improve overall.
That said, here's some art I've done over the years!
Nice to meet this new community. I found you over an recommendation in a YouTube video.
Since I joined tildes I rediscovered my love for oldschool forums.
I draw as long as I remember but I just recently started learning it.
I hope I can get and give a lot of feedback here.
Right now I am into figure drawing but my ultimate goal is drawing some comics and animate.
Since I’m near my thirties time is getting a bit sparse but I draw as much as I can
Here is my work from yesterday. Right now I learn to draw with another online community (lovelifedrawing)
This is my dissection of the figure as far as I am capable right now https://ibb.co/vXsKvLB
I’ve been drawing since as early as I can remember, it’s always been a huge passion of mine, but I feel at some point I sorta fell off of my consistency once I graduated high school a few years ago and fell into a basic go to work, and just get by type of thing. In the last year I realized how much I missed my creativity, and exercising that as much as possible, and started drawing again. I have a lot of areas I can improve on, but I would definitely appreciate feedback as I go. I’m hoping to return to my personal journey of (consistent) improvement, and get on a track I can be happy with and proud of.
I hope people enjoy my work, and I can’t wait to see where I go.
I included a piece I did earlier last year.
My first focus is resuming anatomy study, but I definitely need to work on environments and backgrounds, I just smashed and blended colors around until it looked spacey lol.
Hi, my name is Lora and I'm just starting out as an artist. I have a daytime job in marketing, but I'm looking to switch to full-time creating and making a living doing what I love. My biggest passions are sketching plants and flowers with a pencil and creating phantasy character illustrations on my iPad. For me, art is a way to express my emotions that won't see the light without creativity and also the best meditation that soothes me.
Well I actually knew of this forum many years ago (around 10?) but didn't registered because I was still a noob and was embarrassed of my art plus I felt very easily intimidated by other artists (I was 18 y/o that's why).
I'm a selftaught artist and love character design. The only thing I'm interested in painting is everything related to my OCs and a novel I've been trying to finish for more time that I'm willing to admit.
I love forums way more than Discord so that's why I remembered this forum existed and I'm glad to finally make an account here! :)
My name's Rylee, and for my new year's resolution last year when I turned 20, I realised I was undisciplined, clumsy, impatient, and didn't really have any hobbies so I thought learning to draw was the perfect challenge. I've tried to get into drawing in my life many times, but for the reasons mentioned above, it never really stuck until I eased myself into it through digital art. Truthfully, I still don't accept the 'mantle' that is the artist label, but hopefully I can live up to it one day.
My long term milestone is to eventually be good enough that someone would commission me to draw something for them.
Naturally, there are a bunch of philosophical quandaries about the value of art and what good art is, but as I'm the equivalent of a molerat, I have to compromise with monetary value instead.
When it comes to art, I want to focus on illustration and character design. I'm mainly here as a means of driving myself to draw more because I do a lot of thinking about drawing instead of drawing, which is a bad habit I need to kick.
In general, I'm just a university student studying English, and I occupy my time by gaming and studying.
