Proof that art is something only a few talented peoples can do and an innate traits

>Michelangelo di Lodovico
>At the age of 13, Michelangelo was apprenticed to Ghirlandaio.
>At the age of 21. On 4 July of the same year, he began work on a commission for Cardinal Riario, an over-life-size statue of the Roman wine god Bacchus.
>Bramante, who was working on the building of St. Peter's Basilica, resented Michelangelo and convinced the pope to commission him in a medium with which he was unfamiliar, in order that he might fail at the task. He created the Sixtine chapel fresco.
>Michelangelo's work transcended that of any artist living or dead
>Michelangelo was often called Il Divino ("the divine one")
>Pioneered Mannerist architecture.
>He did not consider himself a painter, Michelangelo created two of the most influential frescoes in the history of Western art

so it took 8 years of intense tutoring at the age where you develop skills the fastest for him to get commissioned, and I'm supposed to read this as muh talent?
is talent your parents dropping you off at a master's workshop at 13?

Yeah, OP is full of crap.

Unless you're profoundly handicapped, the average high IQ (130+) individual can pretty much learn any skill or trade they want and master it provided they put the time/effort into it. Hell, if they're constantly using their brain in creative/challenging ways and have the proper diet, they can still get better at problem solving even as an adult.

For midwits (110-120 IQ), they NEED to go through the Laszlo Polgar method which mostly boils down to "your parents involve you in early and intensive training/studying/tutoring".

You can see this in action with popular comics/manga artists. Lots of them started off as kids and many are incredibly skilled, but there's a reason we only have one Hirohiko Araki. There are even some mangaka who started in their twenties and their art looks fantastic while you have other mangaka who were drawing since they were kids and they get painfully mogged. And this is Japan where everyone has higher than average IQ thanks to iodine from seaweed and a symbol-based language.

Like in my experience working with kids (from elem to high), the TAG/GATE kids get pretty damn good at drawing really fast regardless of age provided they either have a tutor or have figured out how to teach themselves. But you don't really see a whole lot of them because most dedicated arts classes aren't involved in TAG/GATE programs, and parents would rather their smart kids learn an instrument and get music lessons.

The artsy kids aren't usually the bright ones, they're typically midwits who either got early tutoring or autistically dedicated themselves to art, but that really means their art isn't as good as it should or could be because them being midwits means they:

>don't work on their problem areas (certain fundamentals and subjects) and make excuses for themselves)
>fall into the trap of excessively painting/coloring over learning values and light/shadow first
>get really hesitant about drawing from life or using references or meaningful tracing or memory/cognitive drawing (active recall)

The proof of this is basic IQ distribution between boys and girls. Typically, most people making fanart in fandom spaces or who are doing grunt-level stuff in animation are midwit women. Meanwhile, the moneymakers are boys who specialize in niche stuff with high rewards (porn) or who actively make the effort to graduate from grunt-level stuff. Smarties.

>110-120IQ is midwit now
midwits are 90-100IQ. You call them that not because they are the world's average. Midwits as in the casual term, tend to be higher educated but they are not smarter; they just have too much information they cannot process and default to dogma for their intellectual activities because they go crazy easily.
110-120IQ already means you have higher pattern recognition and problem solving than the average. 130IQ is not that much different from 120.
Huge differences start around 140-150IQ but the higher the IQ the more likely the chance it will be accompanied by some sort of issues like autistic traits.
It's why chess players usually are in that range, because their pattern recognition and mental foresight are somethin on par with schizophrenia for the average normie/midwit.

Anyway, no amount of high IQ, talent or skill guarantees success, if the environment and possibilities don't offer opportunities.
And high IQ doesn't equal success; life ain't a videogame.

your knowledge of history is trash
what youve basically said is that Michelangelo from the ageof 13 was surrounded by the masters of the rennaissance and lo and behold that experience produced a great artist.
exact opposite of your post.

youre not entertaining at all
how could you?

no yous for low iq people. take a look at the iqs of significant people in modern history, that sample is significative of the iq of people from hundreds of years ago too.

i like how you can tell when someone is low IQ an obsessed with iq because they think its a personality type like intj so they throw around random numbers with no awareness of what they mean

so he wasnt talented enough from his cunt mothers vagina straight up, he actually had to... learn? huh. weird! i guess youre just looking for an excuse to not draw, faggot

what he meant to say was, as long as youre not brown or a nigger in a nicer way, ranjid. hope that helps!

so smart

anyone can learn art if they start at 13 and truly enjoy it and their life depended on it and there was no social media or jew media to distract them.

wrong, sub 90 iq people cant even compete in unskilled labor. do you really think 90-110 can compete in art? literally the most intellectually demanding profession?

midwit always struck me as 110-120, so I htink I agree with that anon. At least when I first began seeing the term, it was used to refer mostly to people who comfortably operated at 1 level of counterintuition, but struggle to go beyond that. if the middle of the bell curve represents 'common sense' then the midwit is slightly above average IQ. at least insofar as IQ is a suitable measure of this particular trait that midwit memes are memeing about
>>
>>8033767
midwits have nothing to do with IQ
you can put them in the average IQ, but they're just overeducated retards

As with everything in life its almost certainly a mix of both but autists like putting labels on everything
>>
>>8034418
actually iq by the time you are middle aged is wholly determined from birth.

Iq is actually bullshit because it doesnt measure "intelligence" but factors like competitiveness and a very simple level of engineering, its very much about being a person that likes to take and "game" tests, deviate from that, get a lower iq result.
You are just not going to measure intelligence through testing, financial success alone would be more strongly correlated.

whats even the point of these threads. if you dont want to draw anymore, just dont, retard. you dont have to come up with some cope that you can't 'cause of xyz, just literally do something else.
