This is a friendly community for everyone who wants to share their art with the world! Everyone is welcomed 🎨

Rules

AI Art: While we appreciate AI generated art, there are more appropriate communities to post that type of art to. Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only. This rule includes AI art that was then manually manipulated (e.g. drawing on top of something generated by AI).

Nudity: Nudity is and has always been a part of art, but it may be something that some users don't wish to see or cannot view in certain circumstances (e.g. at work). If your work contains nudity, please mark it as NSFW. Work that contains nudity that is not marked as NSFW will be taken down. As long as the NSFW tag is used, we welcome nude subject matter.

Spam: Please do not spam this community. Self promotion is fine if you just want people to be aware of your work, but blatant attempts at spam will result in the past being removed and possibly a ban. If you aren't sure if what you are posting is spam, please contact the moderator first.

Conduct: Be nice, and don't be a jerk. Constructive criticism is OK, but don't be mean. Encouragement is always welcomed.

awesome piece, lovely line work. I could never pull off such shading without monumentally fucking up all over the place.

Oh, rest assured, this is fucked up at multiple locations...

There's something oddly calming about this piece, I really like it.

The hatching lends a really unique atmosphere to this drawing, and the fact that it's drawn by hand, line by line, towards building that sort of romantic ambiance. I think that if the lines had been some sort of repeating, copy/pasted texture, it would've looked sterile and boring instead. It must've taken a long time, haha. Patience and focus are really unassuming but invaluable attributes for creating art. :)

Haha, thanks! It turns out my meditation routine is just drawing hundreds and hundreds of slightly wonky parallel lines all evening.
