Hey everyone, i was wondering, if i did a series of livestreaming art lessons (drawing, core concepts, etc) what kind of subjects would you like me to address?
Depending on the answers and time availability i would love to stream upon a most needed artistic problem, and even if it's beyond my current ability i would try my best to convey a senseful explanation for everyone out there
.In any case, my only constraint here would be that it has to be able to be presented in digital media, because i don't have a webcam to stream live feed for traditional stuff, but in any given case most fundamentals in art apply both to digital and traditional mediums, even certain painting techniques.
Anyway i would love to hear you out people, and see what can be done
.ESPAÑOL
Hola a tods, me preguntaba si fuera a realizar una serie de lecciones de arte (dibujo, conceptos basicos, etc) en vivo, que tipo de temas les gustaria que enseñara o tomara en cuenta?
Dependiendo de las respuestas y la disponibilidad de tiempo de cada quien (incluida la mia) me encantaría realizar una transmisión sobre un problema artistico dado (y que todos necesiten), e incluso si este estuviese más allá de mis habilidades artisticas presentes, intentaria a lo mejor de mi habilidad proporcionarles con una explicación sensata a todos ustedes
En cualquier caso, mi unica limitante seria el hecho de que tiene que ser algo que pueda ser presentado a través de técnicas digitales puesto que no cuento con el equipo adecuado para transmitir con un camara web en tiempo real, lo que seria util para tecnicas tradicionales, sin embargo en cualquier caso muchos de los fundamentos artisticos se pueden aplicar indistintamente tanto a los medios digitales como a los tradicionales, incluso algunas técnicas de pintura.
En todo caso me encantaria escuchar que opinan de esto para ver que se puede hacer

The following is advice in the form of rant, camouflaged with a lot of swearing.
Hope you find it FUN!
It is amazing the amount of god-given talent artists out there, but it's even more outstanding the quantity of hard working artists outside.
Have you thought of your uselessness in art (with suicidal tendencies) whenever you see this wicked sick radiant sparkly awesome art piece form a 13 year old?
Well perhaps not (cough) , but really why is it that most of us cringe when we see someone that good, that person must have cheated in life right? why is art, drawing and stuff so goddamn hard, right?.
Perhaps it is not as hard as we THINK it is. Everything is just a perception of our immediate surrounding reality.
You end up at 3AM watching some kid painting the mona lisa and it adds a fucking moustache, that's art alright, he just reproduced one of the most pop-referenced pieces in the whole goddamn history of art. And yet you cant draw a freaking stickman.
Look at the bright side, youre going to get better...or ¿are you?
I have finally come to the realization of one of the most important ingredients in art (and other stuff) making.
It is deceptively simple, and it's not even fair that it is such an important part of it.
PASSION, yes with double ss, like when you hiss at your god damn doodles whenever they look skewed and bad.
Even if you for whatever reason have the hand of god and your touch raises gold, but you dont have PASSION, you're fucked. Really. Yes Really. No im not ranting, this is for you peeps.
Motivation is another name that gets derived. But honestly passion it's what this game is all about, some people mistake the passion for being lazy while APPRECIATING art, for the passion of making some, and then some more.
True artists are fucked up, they laugh and cry and cringe and reject life itself and then penetrate it with a pencil or a brush. They can be wacky, serious, intellectual, assholes, arrogant, wholeheartedly nice. But all of them have that thing in common, they "enjoy" what they do, they "love" what they do, they have, *drum roll* PASSION for what they do.
They see a freaking crack on a bench noone cares and immediatly get inspired to paint a naked butt. Most people faint at that part, when the so called muse drops you and F-Bomb and you are all edgy and PMS about the idea. Then they fucking go and do it, they don't TRY, they don't THINK about it, they just freaking empty their hard earned expensive artist paints, or melt a god damn crayon to express themselves.
Im not so into the "let's be a celeb" vibe everyone think art is, but to this day my friends i can tell you. I was born with no passion for art, and over the years ive been re-constructing my own vision of it. I dont love to make art, i dont enjoy making fan art, i don't give a crap about painting the most groundbreaking iconic representation of humanity in the twenty first century. I should do something else, like being a fucking lawyer, or perhaps a call center swine calling you to get inssurance over your measley cellphone from over a decade (i have a NOKIA 1100, google it, youll be amazed).
But for some reason, i simply cannot quit this, learning about art and attempting until my guts fall out to succeed with one goddamned decent drawing. I dont know why, maybe i don't like to quit things, despite rage-quitting out of most colleges and universities i have put myself into due to no money or just that we weren't meant to be.
I don't know, but to be honest, i have no idea how to do anything else, now i think more in drawing butts and "extremities" than any normal guy should think about, i mean usually guys think of sex and getting money to get more sex, but i ended up thinking about how to get to draw a freaking interesting pose when the pelvis and the ribcage tilt the way they do.
Anyway to conclude this rant / encouragement piece, i want to say to all of you guys and girls that feel me here, that you are not alone, that your path is your own, youre not davinci youre not yoshinari you, you're not that 10 year old kid who can hear god and paint magical horses on 4 feet by 4 feet canvases with perfect anatomy, i mean you'll never be them, because they are themselves, and they are already here.
My point is YOU are YOURSELF, and NOONE is better at being YOU, thant YOU!.
Enjoy it, don't hang yourself from the second floor, feel happy about being alive, having stuff to eat, maybe your life is rough or perhaps it is filled with magical rainbows and pink elephants. Either way, express your life through your canvas, paper, tablet, photography, cosplay, whatever you know you think more about than anything else, and you will see that when you stop TRYING and start DOING, no matter how ugly it is, or you THINK it is. Then.
You will have a degree of passion running through your system.
I have spoken. From my mind.
And it is awesome.
if you have read this so far, i hope your negative emotions, if ever had some, had dissipated and that you will make great art, not for the sake of others, but because you have to, YOU HAVE TO get it out, unless you want to burn. from inside. lol.
p.s. im going to submit any crappy stuff i have, so turn off on your scraps deviations on your devwatch for me if you want to follow that

You say Goodbye, i say Hello :)

Watch the vid first even if you had hear the song before, you'll feel happy for some reason lol.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=HBZ8ul…
Because a youtube video will always say more than an ellaborate open letter
Anyway, these last months i've been feeling this harsh truth, that i'm not really an artist, i've been considering myself lately more like an artisan, or a technician for that matter, someone who knows how to do stuff but has no creativity or will on it's own to do stuff, so I'm kind of uninspired you see. I wonder if that's the case in reality, but i do feel like that.
On the bright side, i'm quite happy for most people around here who i've met in these past months and years, you all have been improving so much is almost miraculous ; u ; , see i told you so!
i wonder what will happen next, i'm sure you people will get better and better, as long as you believe in yourself and continue to practice :> (you know who you are, even if we haven't talked or wrote to each other this year at all)
I wonder if any of you guys still read this kind of heartfelt crap though
i mean i know i skim on others journals, and i try to comment on most of your deviations, but hey, i try nonetheless .
Anyway i guess i'll lurk off to the shadows that gave me birth or something like that. I'm tired so i'll see if i just close this or rather leave it alone but active.

Mucho trabajo y nada de inspiración hacen de Warlie un niño triste. (referencia a la pelicula The Shining)
