don't hold back! if you think they suck, tell me! but just tell me what makes it suck. haha. i figured i should make a serious attempt at painting, seeing as how i do attend an art school. lmao. i am kinda disappointed on the flatness of them all really, i still haven't been able to nail down the whole depth deal. AND i think they look a like a little kid painted 'em sometimes. dunno why. lol, oh well. never hurts to try
PS forgive my shittyass scans, the illustration board is a lil thicker than normal paper so my scanner didn't close all the way, lol. i was also a little bit drunk at the time of my painting.

there's definitely room for improvement

Was this off the top of your head? or was your paintings from pictures and sceneries??

You already found your problems. Flat and juvenile looking.

As long as you are 12, or going to art school for photography, then everything is fine.

you need to work on your details more

spend more time on your paintings considering the style you're going for

if you don't like taking weeks to paint something then you should consider a different style

here's one of mine

Sergio180sx

LOL oh man the paintings r funny LMFAO!!!...(want to get away??) .....i cant talk shit though cause all i could paint are stick figures

dahveed

yeah, i painted them all under 30 minutes each. by style, do you mean the kind of subjects i painted? landscapes, right?? that is a strange looking piece there. don't get me wrong, it is nice. it makes me feel all wavy. lol. what materials did you use?

OH yeah, i should have mentioned, i'm going to an art HIGH school. not a college. hah. and after graduation(1 week! :-D ) i am heading straight into the military, lol.


EDIT: damn, i worded the first part all retarded. lol my bad.

gunmetalr32

lol... ... this was the first thing that popped in my head too, and i scroll down to find out you beat me to it

your painting's style is along the lines of realism so you as an artist want to portray that the most

otherwise you should consider abstract painting if you can only do a painting for 30 minutes

i've worked on art pieces for months and some for 15 minutes

it all depends on the style you're going for and how capable you are of executing it

holemilk00

What medium did you use? Acrylics? Oils? looks like water colors.

First picture, only problems I see are try adding more layers of grass, from big to small.

On the last pic paint your gray trees a little darker... They're too bright, the trees behind them try adding a little shading to where your grey trees end.

I've been in drawing and cartooning since I was 10, took some painting classes as well.

StalinDrift123

dude, not to be mean or anything, but you go to art school and you still draw like this? What you need is not art school, you need experience. Trying drawing as much as possible. use pencil and draw, or practice drawing details and depth and proportions. dont ever waste your money on art school. I learned it the hard way after paying 2 g's and still didnt learn shit. you can always find out different techniques and be unique without the help of an art school.

I started drawing since I was 11. Im 22 now so I had 11 years of experience. AND IM STILL NOT GOOD!!! haha.

good luck!

Vision Garage

haha. Some people have talent to draw and others do not. its that simple. Depending on how long you have been going to school for art and what not, we cannot tell if you are good or not.

I would work on depth perception seeing as how everything looks flat and bland. Also look into shadows and light as they can help provide depth in your pictures.

If you are beginning, I would say you can improve. If youre about to graduate, I say you didnt pay attention in class.

sb253

ya I have stuff to bang em off nice and fast.

I hand paint the black on these. Something to do

ro240sx

sb253 ur paintings are legit. i would put those up on my wall. good shit.

Kouki_Love

better than what i can do... lol. they look very artistic to me..

dahveed

haha don't worry guys, it's a PUBLIC art high school, so no money wasted on my shit

yeahhh, i never really paid attention in my art class. now i regret it, painting(my crappy shit lol) was actually pretty fun. well, maybe because i was drunk, but whatever...

PS i think you REAL artists should post up your work, shit looks good!

sb253

ya lets see some work!! These threads get my head going for new ideas and this thread already has a decent title. Unless there's already a members art thread?

<<too lazy to search

StalinDrift123

here is what ive been working on for the past few hours.

sb253

see stuff like that is siiick. How do you even start stuff like that? Can you "learn" to do stuff like this? Is it on a scale basis? Mini lesson please?

Turtle

Its not hard but its not easy also, just have good depth perception. Any crappy drawing could look good if it pops out, I don't know the word. But 3D type stuff.

I LUV MY S13

yes more detail..still not bad tho
