Rules

Be respectful and civil.

Please be respectful and civil to everyone, always.

No advertising of any kind.

This includes linking to socials, any type of self-promotion, and discussion of commissions or purchasing of work.

Please put the former on your user profile where people can find them, and do the latter via DM.

Credit must be given.

Submissions which were not created by the poster must identify the creator by name.

No reposts.

Do not repost content.

NSFW must be tagged.

Submissions with NSFW content must be tagged NSFW. Always.

Submissions must demonstrate effort.

Please make sure your image is in focus, upright, and well lit.

Doodles and artwork which doesn't seem like it involved significant effort may be removed. This includes the effort of learning.

A better place for this type of post is r/doodles or r/sketching.

Discussions and requests for help which can be answered by reading our wikis or searching may be removed.

Abstract art posts only.

Posts should either be abstract or be primarily about abstract art. Commentary should focus on abstractness. Videos which aren't primarily abstract, or could have been an image, will be removed. Please make sure the painting occupies most of the frame of images you post.

One post per day.

This is not a support subreddit.

Posts which are looking for mental health support, including any type of artistic blocks, are not appropriate for this subreddit.

You might find better support and audiences for this type of post in:

r/mentalhealth

r/artistlounge

We may remove posts which appear to be mental health related support seeking. We care, but this isn't the place.

Use existing resources.

There are a lot of resources in the sidebar and in past threads related to learning to draw. Please, search first--there's quite a lot of information already available on the subject in our subreddit.

Additionally, there are sister subreddits which are specifically focussed on learning and technique:

r/learntodraw

r/artfundamentals

r/artistlounge

We may remove posts which we think do not use existing resources.

Critiques must be constructive.

Critiques which are just negative and offer no constructive feedback drag the artist down, and they drag the community down. We build each other up, here. If you only have negative things to say, please say nothing instead.
