DON'T DRAW EVERY DAY, GOY.

i want to fuck her so bad bros

At best, this is vapid, inconsequential "advice". Is all her channel like that? Why do people watch that shit? I hate art influencers so much
>>
>>7777249
That's pretty much all of youtube.
Do you think the let's players who scream all the time are doing anything consequential?

That said, even shallow and worn out advice advice is important.
Bullshit advice like 'just stop being sad', to a depressed person, may seem like it's completely useless and inconsequential, but it's a reminder that you have more power over your emotions than you think and that if you change your mindset, you can likely stop being so miserable; it's also a simple way of letting people know that their sobfest has worn out its welcome and the person exhibiting these traits is now acting out of line; etc.

Likewise, the basic bitch advice in art may seem obvious to all of us, but to those who it had not dawned upon, may find it invaluable.
>>
>>7777249
>why do people watch this shit
Because they think if they watch someone who’s “made it,” that they themselves will “make it” too. It’s the same thing with “dating coaches” who surround themselves with prostitutes, it’s all smoke and mirrors for the person who does this “art advice” to make a quick buck.

Really all of the necessary resources you can find are free on the internet. These are just nebulous flavour of the week opinion pieces. Do you need to draw everyday? Who gives a fuck. At least people here admit this board is mostly a waste of time for bored autists. It sucks that people actually take this persons videos seriously.

I've been having nausea attacks recently mid drawing. Perhaps it's the posture...
Any help drawbros?

>>7777263
anon, it seems your art is so dogshit that it is causing you physical harm. I recommend quitting drawing immediately

Pikat had a real fall off recently.
Probably because her stream took off and she failed at being a concept artist.
>>
>>7777279
Being a streamer is a cushier gig than being a concept artist at a big studio anyway. More creative freedom and more relaxed schedule.

>>7777263
At one time (about every 3-4 days in a week, for about 1-2 months) I get bouts of nausea while drawing at night around 9-11pm after dinner. And it's caused by combination of lack of sleep and probably asymptomatic flu

Streaming is basically trying to be entertainer or a performer.

watched one of her videos, she just gave advice like "if you are bad at drawing something, you can just not draw it" and that was the moment where I blocked her channel lol.
No really, in this case, it's perfectly comparable to someone telling you that you don't need to stretch before working out if it hurts - complete bs, and in the long run will hurt you real bad.

I get this really badly, heres a few things i did that really helped.

1) do not wear headphones. The noise cancelling in my MX5's were making me really nauseaus, but even with it disabled i still got dizzy. I just listen to music on my speakers, and i do so quietly.
2) this might be less relevant, , but regularly flush your ears out with a hydrogen peroxide mix (just google).
3) use a decent monitor, if you're drawing digitally it might be PWM flicker causing it. It can happen on oleds. Research that, YMMV.
4) If digital, do not draw in complete darkness. Add a lamp behind the screen so that the bright contrast stops killing you.
5) set a timer for 20-25 minutes. Take a 5 minute break away from the screen, walk about and get a drink or something, then go back to it. Increase your time gradually to figure out when the symptoms start, and then decrease the timer time to avoid it and add a break accordingly.

Posture might help, but for me this was the most effective. I have a herman miller chair, so i dont think that was the cause for myself personally. I also occassionally consume things with ginger in them. Good luck anon! Rooting for you.

>watch an art youtuber actually draw
>they're feathering in every line at a glacial pace while zoomed all the way in
>>
>>7777237
I'd say it depends on the person and how they learn ultimately it depends precisely on the definition of drawing everyday one subscribes too. If you mean draw one complete image everyday regardless of how shit it is yeah that could work for someone, other people might get more caught up on what exactly to draw and it might turn them off because of lack of ideas. some people benefit from doing draw a box type shit or drawing 40,000 circles a year. some people are hopeless and give up before even trying because they aren't perfect draw gods instantly.
>>7777423
>>"if you are bad at drawing something, you can just not draw it"
if that's true then yeah that's fucking shit advice. the things one is weak at are the things you gotta do the most despite it not being pleasant or easy. It's like telling an aspiring bodybuilder to not worry about striving towards good body symmetry.

>>
>>7778325
nta, but I've heard many times that you should draw zoomed out to 100%, or less, so that you don't get bogged down focusing on each individual line.
And assuming that, by feathering, that anon means that each line tapers out, she really is doing exactly that and drawing in a really inefficient and slow way.

Though, if that's how she prefers to draw, power to her - it's not how I'd advise someone to draw though.

>youtube artist

Youtube is a site full of charlatans and shit people who couldn't make it in their actual career so now they do this. You get the rare youtuber who's successful in his field like brandon sanderson, but otherwise they're all shit. Remember the old saying "Those who can't do teach"? It ought to be revised to those who can't do becomes a youtuber. And if you disagree tell me, what youtube artist you have hanging on your wall right now? What youtube artist you admire the artbook of? Not an artist who happens to have a youtube, but a true youtuber artist like this hack.
>>
>>7778426
Brainlets constantly want to get told things only from authorities and you get mad someone pulls rank when they can.
Like that guy who worked at blizzard for 10 years.
Why do you think he kept saying that? Because normies looooooooove appeals from authorities since they feel they don't have to question anything they hear or think about it.
>>
>>7778490
>Why do you think he kept saying that?

Because of the nature of the beast. It's a common marketing tactic to tell people who you are and why should they listen to you no matter what the job.
