AI "art" is the death of culture. No authentic books will come out anymore.

What about websites such as behance or drrrible for illustration works? I saw many graphic designer use them as their potfolio page to host their work, but not so much for illustrator or comic artists. Would like to know ur opinion abt them and if its any good.

8:46 (bit off topic) I started drawing because my mom told me she really liked my art, and i kept drawing everyday, even took art lessons. Then Disney tangled comes in and i told my mom “i wanna do that!” So, now i’m here! I’m making an original story of my own! :D i have 2 goals/dreams at the moment, to release the story and be an interactive animator who everyone can ask advice from, related to art or not :3 Okay but the speed paint?! There’s so much details! I can see from the screen that it’s fun to draw! I love it so much!!! I love the cold and warm colors :D <3

Because I'm so scatterbrained and interdisciplinary I never deal with "burnout" because I'm not working on something for more than 4 hours at a time per day. there's a real fine line between taking a break and just giving yourself an excuse to keep grinding on a long term project. all else id suggest is making a schedule and committing to it. doesnt have to be 8 hours a day, one hour a day and just stopping and going to do something else when the timer goes off is better than 8 hours on a saturday every weekend or whatever 100% on the exercise, i do that first almost every day before sitting down in front of the pc since i train like 10-12 hours a week

YAY

I think it is a bit like furtniture, making chairs, futons, desks etc. It used to be art, hand made, durable beyond belief, it was something you inherited, most people could not afford a nice chair because it was a piece of art. As machines became more prevalent more and more people could afford buying nice looking furniture, but hand made furniture still exists and is currently more expensive than ever, it is a flex to own one of a kind thing.

Honestly idk if I agree with you with the price showing stuff. The commission market over the stratosphere in terms of saturation, most clients won't bother to open the DM to ask an artist about their prices unless they REALLY REALLY REALLY like your art and are just a big fan of you, they just gonna scroll until find something that suits their needs and budget.

my arts are about bungou stray dogs anime,where should I go to get commission?:(

So what is the best place for me to commission anime art? I only have paypal so I can't use skep or pixiv.

Thank you for the video! I love drawing fantasy backgrounds, but I suppose most clients for that would be commercial? I think that private clients would mostly commission art pieces with characters on them.

The ai drawings look so obviously ai. Super detailed and with the same look. It’s also flat and the ideas too are not original

I also noticed that many clients would prefer REAL HUMAN artists! They don't pay for AI art! I love them for that 💖

❤

Actual good news regarding ai is something I never thought I’d see

Yeah ai is really bad :)

your hated of commission sheets is so funny, I was gonna make one but now......

Growing up in NY back in the 90's... As graffiti artists, we used competition as motivation. When it was all said and done, originality always came on top! All these A.I. images are far from original... No soul,no flavor!! It will die out in due time. Just keep working... keep mastering your craft!

Do it alone. Do it broke. Do it scared. Do it ugly. Dont think about tomorrow. Dont think about next week. Just do the damn thing. This is what my brain remembers

A textbook I've read on learning Japanese (and an art book I'm currently learning from) explained just this: Know the difference between fact (the theory) and act (applying the theory) By only watching a tutorial, you only consumed the theory and too many tutorials are bad as you'll just fish for a "perfect" way to do it. The learning will only be effective when you apply what you learned from the tutorial. (This would be the act part)

23:00 Elaborating upon the "your ideas don't matter that much" point, AIbros put too much value on their supposed creative ideas being valuable, when in fact, and through their ultra-capitalist supply/demand lens, ideas aren't valuable because they're overly abundant, what has real value is your ability to execute them, or refine them as you further work on them, Heck, "idea guys" even bring to mind that 2010's meme of the idea guy seeking artist to draw his idea for an edgy generic shonen manga that he can't pay you for right away, but will do once it takes off.

ai' art is good for one thing. Billion dollar investment in meme generators. Smart move.

The ways I've been able to break through any art slumps I have had is simply to draw more. I make sure that if I need a break from my usual art, I just go back to how I drew as a kid: No pressure. No expectations. No concerns. It might be just a sketch that I delete once I'm done, or it might be something that turns into a full illustration. It's been a foolproof go-to method for me.

Breath work like the wim hof breathing, meditation, stretching and yoga safed my life. I work sometimes up to 12h on client work and, without the wim hof breathing I would be dead inside xD

paypal is a very scary app for me to use, but i think its the most and or only mainstream app used for money transactions, ever. aside from friends telling me that it's a horrible app that just "does its thing" most of the time, i actually got my personal account permanently limited because of a fundraiser i was hosting. Something I assume is kind of the second worst thing that could've happened to my account. I've already sent them the necessary documents, telling them that the money was just donated to me out of genuine generosity and was legitimate, as I've also asked the people who sent the money their proof of the transaction. to this day, even with calling customer support, it's still unsolved. I'm from the other side of the world and being connected from someone in the states via general phone call doesn't result in the greatest voice quality; I couldn't hear a single thing. The call ended with disappointment and even more confusion of what should I do next. Since almost every paypal QnA or FAQs usually leads to the conclusion of reaching out to customer support. i hope this can be answered! p.s. if i really want to do some "nasty artworks", are there any other platforms that are internationally friendly?

This channel gives me hope. We aren't alone

Fantastic

AI is anti human in its very conception. Only grifters and talentless hacks love AI art. I hate how AI is basically ruining everything.

Being able to executive ideas in story board is practically move.

I'm a hobby game programmer and I tried AI image gen for about a week and gave it up because it was so frustrating to try to get what I want. I just started learning game art myself.
