I'm an artfag studying for a BFA in Illustration. I believe in the 14 words, but I also have an undying passion for art, it's my only talent. Should I continue to pursue this path, or are my aspirations only a pipe-dream?
I thought about posting my art in this thread but don't want to get doxxed. Pic unrelated.
To clarify I'm a community college graduate with an associates in fine arts (only art degree they offered) transferring to a 4-year art college in the city. I move out to my dorm in late august. I am 20 yrs old
Art is dead and the jew killed it.
My Grandmother made a career out of selling her artwork, but she did have my Grandfather helping her set up at art shows, and drove her there, and hand carved all the frames for her works. Prints of her work sell for thousands of dollars (signed lithographs).
art can never truly die, not when there are righteous men in the world. I had a professor who said painting died with the invention of the camera, as people would opt to get their photo taken than pose for a portrait, contributing to the rise of abstract and later post-modernist art.
but even in these dire times there is a flicker of hope in the pool of darkness. Art is like religion, one must have faith. The mainstream doesn't matter.
Also I did a research paper on Egon Schiele he was a pedophile and likely had an incestuous relationship with his sister.
His art is also so fucking shit it's not even normal.
do you faggots even realize that invention of photography made traditional painting and drawing irrelevant?
and these people created new forms to make it relevant again
Good luck user. I regret dropping out, please don’t quit.
Just accept the fact you’ll never make over 25k a year and you’ll be good
Do video art like Sam Hyde. We need more propaganda
Do what you love and inspires you, eventually you will find a job in that field.
Literally Hitler detected.

>one source of revenue dries up
>pack it up boys we have to draw like shit now
Whenever I see that I imagine it's either making fun of the Germans or outright demonizing them.
Sam Hyde never shuts up about how worthless art school is for even a moderately talented and motivated person. That being said the connections that can be made in a worthless place are on display even in his life. because if he didn't go to the art school then all the people he knows he would not know. So going there, realizing it's worthless, complaining about it being worthless and getting out with some valuable friends makes it worthwhile?
I know I would be cranking out memes instead of shitposts if I could draw, and you can't automate illustrating jobs...
Just do your thing.
There is also a graphics design board around here that might be able to give you meaningful job advice, though it looked to have a lot of bitter GenXers in there too.
Art is very important in society. If you are passionate about doing it, then never stop. Especially if you believe in real art, not some jewish modern nigger """art""".
Hitler was an artist.
You'll be just fine, sir.
Art is based.
>I thought about posting my art in this thread but don't want to get doxxed.
Do it anyways, I want to see whether you make degenerate shit like everyone else.
I'm in a similar position except I graduated a year ago. I have only one good option for my future: more school. I got into a (((grad school))) program for a very specific illustration field. But it is Kiked to the core and I hate it. Anyway, art is doomed, just like the rest of western civilization is, so if you love it, go for it. But don't expect much from it
I and all my friends are art fags. My whole art class in uni was pol tier. Met my obnoxiously artsy Instagram wife that was virgin at 21 yo there. (Now married for me). Same for my female friends that are also art fags and are 1488 fuck faggots and beta cucks. Do whatever you want. You live in clown world anyway
What is you job user? Help I'm lost
This. Hitler knew exactly what was going on.
If you are girl, then find a redpilled guy
If you are guy, well... you really should've done something more substantial. Now you'll have to get into a trade if you want to be successful.
I watercolor, love it but also very amateur. I run into a shit ton of poz when researching different things. I do run into a lot of redpilled people though, they're the ones making the real art. Pic related, my favorite paints, Sennelier.
Persue your passion with everything you have and create art for the ages. Infuse your politics into your art if you feel so inclined.
Good on you user .I have no gift for art but I really enjoy looking at almost every genre
Apply for an art residency at any place that suits your field/practice (the one that offer stipends/funding)
learn to write,
go to every opening you can and be nice to everyone (you never know who can help),
message the galleries that interest you and ask what it takes to be represented by that particular gallery.
find out about stablished artist in the contemporary art scene in your city and apply to be their studio assistant.
If the school provides a fully funded exchange program do it
DONT SHOW YOUR POWER LEVEL
Don't apply for MFAs unless you already feel fully formed as an artist and only take them if you are not going into debt for it.
I recently started a company that does VFX, animations, art and modeling for games. Pic related is what I am dong for some Jap studio whole weekend, while chilling and shitposting by myself at the office.
Fucking 32 bit depth render. Sorry user. This should be 8
nu/pol/ is fucking retarded, boomers will shit on art students and people who want to pursue art-related careers, and they will also complain that art is full of progressive retards.
Follow your passion and bring some non-degeneracy into the art world.
networking is the most valuable aspect of higher education even in STEM.
Same fagging here. For those that know her I am studying Billy Showell's art...her books are very helpful, she keeps everything simple and to the point. I have the Sennlier 24 color set in the wood box(+12 extra Jacksons Art colors) and the botanical colors she recommends, it's a lot of fun. I also found an awesome source for Series 7 brushes, they're outstanding. Purchasing a 219 dollar brush for 20 bucks is badass.
Commercial art is a dead industry. You will have to compete for jobs with fools who will work for practically nothing just so they can build up contacts or pad their resume. Clients treat you like the bottom feeder you are as they know quite rightly that there are a hundred others just as good as you who will work for the same pay or less.
Get out of this madness and pursue a real career. Finish carpentry and welding draw on the same skill set. Those jobs pay well once you're established. Trying to make it as an illustrator is like trying to be a pro musician. A few do, the rest fail.

Honest question, why did you go to school for art?
My understanding is that you just have to be good and create a portfolio to find work. My plan right now is to work a normal job while I get good enough for commissions I want to do.
What’s a battle for Azeroth illustration
Damn, you're making Yu-Gi-Oh stuff, what's the name of the company?
I'm in the academy of arts in Sofia and I'm thinking of going into game design when I graduate
>it's my only talent
If it's a talent why the fuck do you pay for it?
You are clearly a woman so no, stop wasting your time in school. Get a white husband of good character to take care of you as a stay at home mom and have 12 kids. Get busy before your eggs dry up! If you insist on being a career addled feminist infected cunt then for fucks sake STOP paying for bullshit art school. Just make art 12 hours a day every day. Imitate the greats at first and develop your own style. Support 1488 causes and try not to secumb to the degeneracy of the modern world. Remember, artists generally have to suck major jew cock to get into galleries exhibitions etc.so get used to doing everthing yourself. Good luck.
No. The Jew was undermining Viennese culture. That was the stated goal.
Can't tell you the name as they are jet to release their stuff. Game design is great. I am doing 4 hours of C# Programming fundamentals form Soft Uni every morning from 5 to 9 o'clock. I am also doing some short films with National Film Center financing. When I have 200K to spare in a couple of years I will start working on some super autistic games like Cataclysum DDA.
Art is not a career.
Get a useful degree that can support you financially and paint on the weekends.
Or, alternatively, take out six figures of non-dischargable student debt in order to earn under $15k a year following your passion, and be soul-crushingly poor for the entirety of your life.
Your call. Don’t let others decide for you.
