Thanks for the link! Well to be fair I'm not going to question everyones negative comments or if they say it looks shit and say oh why does it look bad. Art is subjective to personal taste and desire. I'm not here to please everyone and make some godly creation, i'm an artist and i'm still learning, I have the desire to make art all my life and I'll continue to make art in anyway I see fit. [QUOTE=MuffinZerg;40406668]You are a modern artist we deserve[/QUOTE] That means a lot thank you
To be fair, you were saying things about my work and expecting that after I posted it that I would instantly improve and get better after you provided some constructive critism, it has now been a few years & I have been practising, so here is some recent work that I have been doing [IMG]http://pre15.deviantart.net/e036/th/pre/f/2017/018/d/1/16114004_344354375963276_5698407241110757048_n_by_ph3nf1x-davus9w.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://pre10.deviantart.net/e884/th/pre/f/2017/016/7/8/16105484_343818269350220_8850649154251717863_n_by_ph3nf1x-davpyi6.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://pre03.deviantart.net/9b49/th/pre/f/2017/016/b/d/16114943_343836666015047_2849282966308313530_n_by_ph3nf1x-davpyn7.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://pre15.deviantart.net/0dab/th/pre/i/2016/351/d/f/soujiro_seta_colour_pencil_fan_art_by_ph3nf1x-darws9b.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://pre15.deviantart.net/2a2f/th/pre/i/2016/348/0/4/piper_fullbody_fan_art_by_ph3nf1x-darlp0g.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://pre10.deviantart.net/7fb5/th/pre/i/2016/343/6/8/piper_fan_art_by_ph3nf1x-dar1uso.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://pre15.deviantart.net/5bc7/th/pre/i/2016/311/c/a/quill_pen_fantasy_merchant_stalls__121801_by_ph3nf1x-danlbjj.jpg[/IMG] With the art I posted with Alchemy, that was an experiment with colour, and to get the images to have different levels of colour, another thing is that I'm not giving up something that I have a passion for because someone can say negative things, a lot of the feedback that I have received is that I have to improve, so I have, and been trying to do that.

Might I suggest adding some spaces of pure black to help make the image pop. You've got plenty of pure white, so adding black to it will make the mid tones pop. I would also suggest making cleaner lines to really define the shape of the object, then using lighter lines for the details. Also you could try scanning the image in as Text, giving you a pure black line to work with, then place it over some of your colour experiments. If you have any questions feel free to PM me, It's nice to see a style slowly forming since I'm about 3 years into seriously drawing. Do you have an Instagram or anywhere else with your art?
Biggest thing I could suggest is to start learning how to construct images without lines. Use light and dark. A fun exercise and way of drawing is to find gray paper (or spread graphite over a paper) and then erase where you want light and highlights and use charcoal to draw where you want dark. Look at constructing form from blobs and areas of contrast. You have improved a bit, but it looks like you should actually study rather than simply practice. You need to start trying new ways of doing things and absorb techniques and knowledge that you don't have other wise your art will just stay the same no matter how long you do it. Keep it up! You can do it!

Another one, with some of the images, when I have a lot of white contrast on the paper, to fill in some more parts of it to give more black in contrast, I can try that, I don't have any charcoal or graphite paper at the moment, I can look into getting some, thank you for the constructive feedback & inspiration, I will keep trying to improve :)
Here are some links which demonstrate or explain what I was suggesting: [url]http://www.artinstructionblog.com/drawing-lesson-a-theory-of-light-and-shade[/url] examples: [url]http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-u4ViyXiYtZE/VTsUQ8ekDpI/AAAAAAAABCg/meLT6o3A3tg/s1600/F14004.jpg[/url] [url]http://www.conceptart.org/forums/attachment.php%3Fattachmentid%3D1826854%26d%3D1378621370[/url] Note how there are no lines used. Edges are created by contrasting areas of light and dark. Anatomy would also be a great thing to study like you were saying. Good luck. You have some nice ways of using colour.

Did two paintings, at first they were a little messy and cluttered, so I re-painted them, this is what happened :) [IMG]https://fb-s-c-a.akamaihd.net/h-ak-xft1/v/t1.0-9/16406549_352038605194853_8841524866928438142_n.jpg?oh=4e1ad5aaf7d59e3175ac54aa9dab0ffd&oe=5943FA2B&__gda__=1493050914_aa333f164d72347b2b6c850508948477[/IMG] [IMG]https://fb-s-b-a.akamaihd.net/h-ak-xap1/v/t1.0-9/16299317_352038841861496_7963876448969232860_n.jpg?oh=d9f2926fea6110f51b73ff3bbd636cda&oe=59175FDC&__gda__=1493176451_df03f859690bf90aeb82e4e9e579ac3f[/IMG]
I was really surprised to see how many people didnt like the art l, especially the abstract colors and shapes. I feel the exact opposite. I love the abstract shapes and colors, its like I could get lost staring at it. [editline]25th February 2017[/editline] Just an idea, It might look cool if used your abstract as the background of one of your portraits
