Hello!! I have a collection of Art Tips to show you! Welcome to my personal side of the internet, I try to share positive notes of inspiration as well! I am an Adult over the age of 18.

Hi !

Welcome to the First post on ArtinHits !!

This is a side account of the owner of the @artinscollective .

I want to share positivity in the art community here on tumblr. We recently have seen a downfall in reblogs on art posts on tumblr and I hope this encourages more reblog action to artists here!

If you see a piece you enjoy here do not be afraid to reblog it and maybe put in the tags what you enjoy about it!

As an artist myself I know that when people do that it makes me so happy, legit makes my day .

If you think someone should be posted on here shoot me a message or ask with a link to a post you want me to share!!

This account is purely for positive things! DO NOT GIVE AN ARTIST CRITICISM unless ASKED please ! Not everyone has to hear what's wrong w their art, often times we know. If you ask if it's okay, then that's different. Thank you ♡

Enjoy your stay ♡♡

Hey guys ! I made an account dedicated to Art Appreciation. I have done this before in the past, years ago, but I deleted it and now I want to remake it.

If you have a friend or even yourself and you would like to have more people see their art and get compliments just send them my way and I will attempt to get to posting everyone ♡

Feel free to follow along and join me in appreciating art there! Maybe even find new styles you can study!

By the way, if you're looking for reference on how to render materials - and especially distressed materials - I recommend looking at antique and second hand stores online. You can find some really good reference there.

Examples from here.

It’s really not all that hard to find reference pictures of folks who have had top surgery so you can draw trans bodies with accuracy. All reputable surgeons who perform top surgery have a portfolio of their work online. There’s countless photos out there of different types of contouring and scarring and they don’t look at all like a ripped cis guy with little lines under each pec.

Here’s a couple patients from Dr Scott Mosser’s website

There’s tons of ppl who decided to not get nipple grafts. They need love too! Plenty of folks decide not to keep their nipples because the healing process is for some ppl more annoying to heal than the actual incisions. The person on the left here has two incisions, and the one on the right has one incision going all the way across the chest. It’s very common for folks with big chests pre-op to end up getting the type of incision that goes all the way around the front! Keep this in mind if you’re drawing fat characters!

Sometimes folks with dark skin will have nipple grafts that appear pink. Keep in mind when drawing characters with dark skin! This coloration is ofc not always the case, as pictured on the rightside pic

Here’s an example of a common occurrence after top surgery called “dog-ears.” This is when excess skin sometimes gathers near the very end of the incisions on either side of the rib. Dog-ears are also super common with patients who had a large chest pre-op (notice this person also has an incision all the way across the front! I chose this pic bc of that combination of features).

Also keep in mind scars don’t heal symmetrically! Sometimes keloids (the risen, “puffy” parts of the scars) will form.

In summation: top surgery looks incredibly different on every person, and your art should reflect that! If you’re going to draw trans bodies, make sure you actually look at them

(Please keep in mind I am not a surgeon or a doctor, these are just my own observations. Also please correct me if there’s anything here that’s inaccurate)

I don't know who needs to hear this, but as a painting student I suggest:

Dish soap and boiling water is WAY better than terpentine or paint solvent to fix dried out brushes.

------------------------

Put the brushes in a cup.

Pour a dish soap.

Pour a boiling water to the level it doesn't reach the wooden part.

Leave them to soak and soften

Try to separate the hair on two parts, then on smaller and smaller parts.

At the end, carefully try to scratch off the paint and "break" the hair by carefully pushing it over a surface and moving (like over your palm). If you can't, repeat the previous steps.

------------------------

Works even with dried out oil paints. Stronger fluid doesn't mean better.

So if you can't afford new brushes, don't throw the old away. Even if they seem helpless, there is a hope for them to be like new.
