Bad at art?
That's not possible because everyone has different parameters.
"Art" does not just mean realistic drawing or painting. Go to school; learn what you can. Art is about the creative process.
I'm also a "naturally" talented artist but I couldn't disagree more about someone not being able to learn art. Everyone is born with certain proficiencies but that only takes you so far. If you want to be a great artist (or great at anything for that matter), you have to do what every other great artist has done and work your butt off at it. Study the form of everything until you can conceptualize it in your head. Then you can start to manipulate those forms for your own art. It's a process but completely doable. Worst case scenario is that you have a hobby that makes you happy.
Perhaps you should try drinking heavy amounts of Absinthe or taking large doses of hallucinogenics? Alot of great artists did and do.
HA!! your silly there is no such thing as good Art
And there is no such thing as perfection....There is such thing as your own style, if you feel you want to become an Artist because that's where your heart lies. Do it. Don't regret not doing it and miss your great opportunity to achieve your goal....
Keep drawing.....
Think of Van gogh .....and look at his drawings....
good luck with your Artist dream
I agree with afleyx - I'm also a naturally talented artist who was given a golden ticket to become an artist. After studying visual art for years I can now draw shockingly realistic images. But it's not something I enjoy doing, so I'll let months go by without drawing anything. I'd rather be a singer or a lawyer or a businessman. The creative process is what counts. Look at Andy Warhol. Some universities' art schools focus entirely on the conceptual side of art as opposed to classical training. The bottom line is: if you like art, then you are not bad at it.
I enjoy art as a hobbies and would like to make a profit from it I have great ideas but, Im not naturally talented I believe I do need to practice more despite my young age now that I'm older I go on YouTube or google learn more for beginners but its still tough for me but I'm not giving up I would like to create a film some day
I myself am an artist and I'll tell you something you've probably heard a billion times before: practice!!! You can become good at something magically! I grew up in an artistic family, so I was taught from day one. Charcoal, watercolor, marker, lead, color pencil, you name it! It wasn't natural for me either, and I'm still learning. And I'll tell you something. All of the great artists that were and are alive will tell you the same thing.
Hope I helped! <3 have a nice day ^-^
Being able to draw "well" of paint realistic paintings is not a necessity if you want to be part of the professional contemporary art world. However if you want to get anywhere in the art world be prepared to be very good at licking butts and sleeping with the right people. Even if you think that is cynical, you will need to have very good self promotional and networking skills or get someone else to do it for you. Look at the number of people who come out of art school with a degree each year and then look at the number of people who make a living out of art.
Yes. Every artist started out where you are now. I advise ConceptArt.Org, it's a very helpful site, full of everyone from MARVEL's top artist (Marko Djurdjevic) to people who have never even doodled. There are free tutorials there, and you can make a Sketchbook thread where people can give comments about what you've done, and what to do next.
Just be a unique artist that does weird paintings but still have a meaning like abstract art
I always wanted to be a modle but I'm not tall 5'3 lol but I'm a ceramic artist and I cant draw very well u can always learn everyone can draw it just how good u do it lol
I'm the same way with music. I've been writing songs for 15 years that no body gets, or even seems to enjoy in the least. yet somehow I really want to do it as a living. Probably will never happen. let it be a hobby and explore things, even related things, that you are good at.
Of course its normal everyone desires to be great at a profession that they may not be necessarily good at. For example I have this little secret fantasy that 1 day i'll be a singer but my singing is crap and I doubt it will ever happen unless I get singing lessons from a pro.
Of course it's normal!
Everyone desires career's that they are not necessarily good at.
Sometimes I wish I was a well known singer but I'm not that good at singing if you get what I mean.
Interesting question. I guess by being good you may mean able to support yourself, move yourself & others with your work etc.
Could be you haven't hit your stride or found your niche. So pursuing it may yet pay off. But what if it doesn't? What if it only makes you happy to do it? Thats pretty nice too.
Of course we all have to eat. But you can consider educational options that would still allow you to pursue/explore your art. You know - the business side, gallery, or educator - that sort of thing.
I would say it's worth exploring. There are many different kinds of mediums. I was discouraged by art teachers because of my not very good drawing and painting abilities but I ended up as a very admired computer graphics artist.
Sure its normal... think of it like this: someone who can't run very fast wants to become a professional football player.
Woah! Looks like you and I have some things in common! I also want to be an artist but I kinda suck at drawing. Don't worry, just keep trying and maybe one day you'll be an artist!
Totally. I am exactly the same. I am somewhat good at crafting, but I can't really paint or draw, yet I love to do it all the time. I wish I was awesome at it, but I certainly am not.
Because others have faith in me and believe I'm good at drawing but I've recently noticed some art today and in the past from good artist and it makes me want to give up but I don't want to I want to get better I have been drawing for a week now but I think I'll draw right now
YA! normal! I always wanted to be a lawyer but i cant argue a point AT ALL!
