So this is something I have had in my head for a fair while now and I'm kinda at a crossroads. Basically I just dont really enjoy art anymore. I do still enjoy doodling and sketching but sitting down and concentrating on a piece is becoming a real chore. I had aspirations of becoming a pro artist but to become one you must put together a pro portfolio, learn to market yourself, take rejection upon rejection on the chin and keep going,develop a style that helps you stand out from the crowd, land a contract and work for less than what i make in my current job. Plus on top of this I am experiencing something of an existential crisis in terms of art itself What does art do for the wider world ? how is it meaningful ? yeah cool its good for the individual in terms of expressing themselves but honestly.. when has art ( drawing and painting ) really changed the world ???? Now, maybe I am being overly negative but I cant find an answer for myself or have dedicated so much of myn life towards art that Im now thinking I want to move on before I waste my whole life. I would be very interested to hear from you guys on this one. Have you had a similar experience and how did you over come it ?

Hey guys So I've started a new piece and would greatly appreciate any tips/feedback you have so far. This piece started out as a full front piece but I started playing around with perspective and enjoyed where it went, but now it needs tightening up before committing to moving forward. Thanks in advance guys

Good Evening everybody. I am going to do a series of paintings based on Greek mythology and would love your feedback. This is the abduction of Persephone by Hades. Obviously very rough at the moment but if you have any critiques i would appreciate it

Hey guys So I think I'm making good progress on this piece but something feels off. I would appreciate any feedback you have before I commit
Kristian Nee
Hey Matt! Good job on these, you're right to stay away from detailing at this stage. A couple things, though the gesture is getting there you're losing a lot of the energy of the poses. What I suspect is happening is that you're not drawing as much with your arm as you should be. With these sorts of drawings, feel free to draw past where you think the shapes should end. These ones that you've done have very abrupt ends which do stop the figures displaying their action. See the example below for what I'm talking about:
