art advice

ambris-art:

theskywakersketch:

“Use limited colors!” “Use lots of different colors!”

“Carefully plan each piece” “Draw faster”

“Be as neat as possible” “It’s ok if your art is messy”

“Don’t draw stylized work” “Try lots of styles”

And yet. All of these are true.

It really depends on the situation, what you’re trying to achieve and in what areas you’re interested in developing in. Art has very few rules, and almost anything you say about it can be contradicted somewhere. It’s about context, I suppose.

Just remember that art is not science. There are a lot of equally right answers. That’s what makes it art. It’s about self-discovery and expression.

Having said all that, the humor of such advice is not lost on me. XD
