WHY ARTISTS CAN'T TELL HOW GOOD THEY ARE [how to critique your own drawings]

[@leoAlvarezReal]

When I was younger, I would draw something and go “wow this is amazing” and now I’m like, “this is terrible.” and I look at my old art and go, “wow that is terrible”

My mom was always my art critic. She’s a designer and always would help me correct my sketches and make me redo drawings

[@doorbel9084]

Lucky! When I was younger I used to ask my mom what she thought about it and make her guess what it was and cry if she didn’t guess correctly on the first try. She refers to them as “art tests” and will jokingly ask if It’s an art test when I show her my art. It’s not that I can’t handle criticism, it’s just that I can’t handle criticism.

I’m one of the “best drawers” in my school, and most say I’m just behind this one girl. So, I’d compare my stuff to hers and fix my own mistakes. At least until I learned she’s a tracer. Tbh it kinda sucked, but she hated my guts anyway so I called her out. So I can’t use that method for my critique anymore. So lessons 1. Be careful with the artist at school 2. Don’t compare yourself to others (too much)

True, I have a friend who is awsome at art and he is the only one at school thata is better than , me, he is a huge role model for me, he did start out by tracing, and tracing is a really good way to learn, but to trace and claim that you are not, is just plain wring

It's almost like emotions aren't my specialty. •Hands- They're. Hands. End of statement Edit: alot of people have given me tips for realistic drawing, which I'm not mad about seen as alot of others struggle with it, and I feel like I should specify something; I don't. I gravitate more towards an animation kinda style. Again, I appretiate the tips given, realism just isn't my piece de resistance :/

[@consumerism]

I sort of sway between being confident with my art, feeling confused, and hating my art. Frankly, I do believe if you hate all your art and can see the flaws almost right away, you're improving very quickly. Try using more references and just sketch. Don't try to refine your art down to the line, just sketch out some things and you'll feel better. I find whenever I try to make everything symmetrical and perfect, I end up with an art piece with no personality. If you sketch without worrying too much, you can end up with something that feels more alive.

My friends are pretty good art critics. And most of us in the group like to draw, we all like to critique each other constructively every now and then.

[@zig_ma]

Don't spend a lot of time focusing on what you did wrong in your drawing. Just make more drawings and you will get better.

[@xCr0nus]

What I found really reduced my anxiety and over-analyzing of my own art is to simply hold off judgement while working on it, and decide if I like how it looks upon backing up a bit and looking at it from further away. In reality, most of the time the only artwork you're looking at that closely is your own. But if you were to get up super close to even a very skilled artist's artwork in the same way you would with your own, you would definitely begin to notice some flaws that weren't apparent at first glance.

I had to make an oil painting as a final project for my senior year art class. It was a lighthouse sitting in a rocky bay with mountains in the background and a sunset. I thought it was an utter piece of shit despite what my family kept saying and several good friends who are also artists. I didn’t listen because “oh they’re just my family/friends, they’re just saying that so I don’t feel bad.” Then I take it into class for a grade and I go up to my teacher to show her and say “Take a good look, I’m burning this when I get home.” She takes one look at it and tells me to leave it in the classroom because if I don’t want it, she does. So I leave it there and then go home and then after a few days, while walking around in the hallway, I kept getting stopped by people saying “Hey, I saw your painting! It’s really good!” And then they’d walk away. I went to see what they were talking about and I saw my painting hung up outside the classroom with a group of people standing around it looking at it. When I came near the group, several people turned around and told me what a good job I did and that it was fantastic. So long story short, I made a painting, thought it was shit, planned to burn it but found out it wasn’t shit and everyone thought it was awesome except me. The moral of the story is to not let your own doubts get you down

[@springheeledjax]

Most artists I know heavily critique their own art and give themselves no credit. What I've learned is that even if I know what I've drawn looks like shit, I can still be happy with myself for improving on something, or trying something new, or just knowing that I'll get better if I keep on the same path. I've come to a point with my art that I'm usually happy with the outcome, but I'm not blind with the flaws. Getting other people's opinions helps a lot. Mainly people who are better artists than me give me the best critiques. It doesn't feel good to hate all your art. You gotta look on the bright side more and if there's a glaring flaws you notice in your art, work on it! Look stuff up, see what your doing wrong. At least that's how I see it. If you're just drawing for the fun of it, then whatever, just keep doing what makes you happy.

[@ames_7707]

When I first draw something I say, “Wow, I think I’m improving! This looks better than my old attempts!” And then the more I look at it the more I see the flaws and I start to think it doesn’t look good. Edit: Oh she said the same thing, I guess I’m not the only one, I feel better now, I hope I can improve.

[@watakashe6072]

Usually the things that look off are really easy to fix! An eye being in the wrong place, or the head being disproportionate, are really easy to fix and can make a huge difference. As you flip the canvas more often in each of your pieces, you'll start to put things in the right place automatically, and the reverse image won't look as weird anymore. I used to do the same thing and flipping the canvas did so much for my artwork.

[@sixharp9456]

when I was younger, like 6 or so, I would draw pokemon alot. My friends did this too. we were all obsessed with pokemon. One time my friend shows me one of her pokemon drawings and goes "look this is my best one!" I was stunned, because it was AMAZING and looked EXACTLY like the pokemon. my best drawing didn't even come close. She didn't seem that proud of it though, and was just kinda like 'oh I made it accurate. cool!' I asked her how she was so good, because for me it would be hard to get the lines the right length and such. She was like "oh cause I traced it" and I was like "what?" and she said "don't you trace too?" and the thought of tracing pokemon drawings had never entered my head. "that's like cheating!" I said. She was like "hm. I do this with all of mine." I never traced drawing growing up, because I didn't see the point of drawing something if you just put a piece of paper over a tablet and drew over it. Why? if it turns out good, you can't even feel proud because you literally just drew over some lines that were already there. But that's just my opinion. -\(``/)/-

Perfect pose? Pfft, I just use the Araki rule EDIT: It seems like not enough of you know what the Araki ruke is. The Araki rule is when you twist the body so strangely and absurdly that people just assume that's how you like to draw

Your so good at art! Keep up the good work! My old friend used to hate on my art but all I need is some practice! I am *definitely* the “too harsh” type of artist, but you are helping me get better! You inspired me to try and draw, and now I’m learning! Love your style! Can’t wait for your next video!!! Thank you for giving me confidence!

[@blumeshullman8002]

the "dont give yourself bonus points because it was hard" really hit home, I'm totally guilty of that but I have become a lot more aware of it recently and I was starting to really understand it, but you said it so simply, it really added some clarity in my mind, so thanks.

[@blitzogene]

I’m not that good, but I can still draw. I’m not confident about it, but my old art is...Weird.

[@yurigacha-san1367]

Same here. My characters from when I was 8 had these huge black circles with a small ring of colour around them for eyes. They looked demonic as heck. And don't get me started on animals...😂

[@novalights4687]

@rose same w me, then again i only draw chibi characters--- so im probably not that great bc i dont know how to draw like, semi-realistic---

[@blitzogene]

kosiwee by the looks of your drawling videos, you draw of computer so, in my book your good either way lol

[@annoyinglacey875]

The thing is, if you're overly critical on your art after putting it on some kind of social media platform then so many people will assume you just want attention (minus people who clearly _are_ just looking for attention, and it isn't just based on assumptions) but if you act a certain amount happy about it people will think you're cocky so when I make art I don't even want to upload it even if I made to upload it, I act nervous about my art and even that is a lot better than how I really feel about it. I used to be very confident in my art, but I quite honestly made a lot of mistakes (e.g. giving my characters bobble heads and hiding parts like hands because I didnt want to even try to draw it) that I don"t make now, and even though I'm more experienced and a lot better I still judge every little detail and error to the point that I only see my mistakes

[@sylviabellie4297]

I’ve gotten to the point where I say “I like this, hopefully I still like it in a few hours.”

[@luthierZ]

The flipping your drawing advice was so helpful! :D I flip my drawings ALL the time and needed a reminder that the less familiar inverted the version is, the better

[@kevinroberts5799]

I love redoing my old art. It's SO satisfying.

[@creatorfeline5554]

Indeed, it kinda gives you this temporary boost to draw stuff better
