Are there any cities where artists have used graffiti to organically enhance the environment according to some sort of logic or aesthetic?
I.E, I've been tempted to do this myself because things around here are so brutalistic and dull, but what about something where multiple artists organize organically (with no city intervention,) and slowly begin enlivening a place with things that are actually interesting to look at. Turn an alleyway into a psychedelic tunnel, add arabesque patterns to doorways and walkways slowly and progressively, each artist adding something unique like a huge collective drawpile?
Are there any places like this where art has overtaken or 'grown' into the space over time?
>>
>>7146996
Maybe Lyon? I am sure parts of it are city sanctioned at some level or another but there are a lot of 'organic' pieces there too.

Yeah, there's a difference. Boobs aren't as unique as fingerprints, but there are still a hell of a lot of visual differences between them all. I'm not sure if I fully understand what you're asking, but I'll try to explain.
First pair: shows a set that is on the smaller side of the three, but more average if you're thinking about real life. They're ample, full, have a soft-firm appearance, don't have a lot of weight to them but would still likely need a bra for support.
Second pair: this set is larger than average, with the breast tissue being much more on the soft side. The fullness is distributed more throughout the middle to bottom of each breast than it is at the top.
Third pair: these lean more firm throughout with even fullness, more rounded in appearance. This can be established with a good push-up bra that helps to redistribute volume towards to top cleavage, with round breast implant shapes, and with natural boobs that have a higher tissue distribution at the top.
All of this is subject to changes in the cycle, the types of clothes someone is wearing, or artistic preferences.

I am a very sucky painter, but the point I want to make is that drawing is the main thing to work on here. Try getting comic books and just making studies from them, figuring out how they separate light and shadow, and how they stylize the features. I recommend the capeshit ones because they have heavy light and shadow, and those shadow shapes can be aped for painting. Mignola is a good choice for shadow shapes and simplified painting.

Either bullshit or he just got incredibly lucky, meeting the right person at the right time. There are art festivals all over the fucking place where artists struggle to sell shit, shit which I guarantee is more original than whatever this guy painted, for even three figure amounts.

Reddit is a site for creative writing exercises. I don't think a single thing posted there is ever real, ironically the anonymous nature of 4chan without the whole incentive of Reddit karma means people here are more likely to tell you a real story than Reddit.

Anyone else like this?
>>
>>7147698
It means you've been focusing on other areas (I hope), pyw.

Just do thumbnails of perspective and set things up with boxes
Also yes I get a headache if I draw perspective, that means the brain is rewiring itself to have a blender 3d program inside
>>
>>7147698
I honestly gave up caring and just draw flat shit
>>
this is exactly me. I feel like when it comes to anatomy, light, etc. I’ve been able to study and intuitively grasp these pretty well. and even in the case of perspective I can bullshit organic forms convincingly

but once I have to contextualize an entire 3D environment or draw something really geometric where the perspective has to be spot-on (cars, architecture. etc)… it is so over

I’ve been trying to make it through scott robertson’s perspective book and it’s starting to make a little more sense, but I have to go through it really slowly and it seems a lot harder to just internalize the knowledge than with other fundamentals. it makes me feel like such a dumbass because I’ve seen a lot of otherwise unskilled artists able to throw together a decent looking cityscape lol
>>
Yeah. Stuff like color theory or drapery or general anatomy has always felt pretty intuitive to me, perhaps because they require less precision. For similar reasons I think cooking is way easier than baking.
These days, I can sort of deal with perspective for landscapes, since those are more conducive to eye-balling. But urban settings? Interiors? Mechanical things? It's over for me
