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.

Love the smoke, what’s the medium?

Charcoal on paper, using a neat little technique I came across while experimenting with different desktop surfaces :)

Love this, how did you do the light background with the charcoal?

[–] MINDistortionTV@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

By using a different kind of charcoal :) In this case I used willow charcoal for the background, which turns out lighter than the charcoal I usually use.

He looks like he needs some good sleep and a hug...

And also maybe to stop staring directly into the sun. Weirdly more relatable on all three counts than it ought to be lol
