Can't afford art school?
After seeing post like this 👇
And this gem 👇
As well as countless of others from the AI generator community. Just talking about how "inaccessible art" is, I decided why not show how wrong these guys are while also helping anyone who actually wants to learn.
Here is the first one ART TEACHERS! There are plenty online and in places like youtube.
📺Here is my list:
Proko (Free, mostly teaches anatomy and how to draw people. But does have art talks and teaches the basics.)
Marc Brunet (Free but he does have other classes for a cheap price. Use to work for Blizzard and teaches you everything)
Aaron Rutten (free, tips about art, talks about art programs and the best products for digital art)
BoroCG (free, teaches a verity of art mediums from 3D modeling to digital painting. As well as some tips that can be used across styles)
Jesse J. Jones (free, talks about animating)
Jesus Conde (free, teaches digital painting and has classes in Spanish)
Mohammed Agbadi (free, he gives some advice in some videos and talks about art)
Ross Draws (free, he does have other classes for a good price. Mostly teaching character designs and simple backgrounds.)
SamDoesArts (free, gives good advice and critiques)
Drawfee Show (free, they do give some good advice and great inspiration)
The Art of Aaron Blaise ( useful tips for digital art and animation. Was an animator for Disney. Mostly nature art)
Bobby Chiu ( useful tips and interviews with artist who are in the industry or making a living as artist)
Sinix Design (has some tips on drawing people)
Winged canvas (art school for free on a verity of mediums)
Bob Ross (just a good time, learn how to paint, as well as how too relax when doing art. "there are no mistakes only happy accidents", this channel also provides tips from another artist)
Scott Christian Sava (Inspiration and provides tips and advice)
Pikat (art advice and critiques)
Drawbox (a suggested cheap online art school, made of a community of artist)
Skillshare (A cheap learning site that has art classes ranging from traditional to digital. As well as Animation and tutorials on art programs. All under one price, in the USA it's around $34 a month)
Human anatomy for artist (not a video or teacher but the site is full of awesome refs to practice and get better at anatomy)
Second part BOOKS, I have collected some books that have helped me and might help others.
📚Here is my list:
The "how to draw manga" series produced by Graphic-sha. These are for manga artist but they give great advice and information.
"Creating characters with personality" by Tom Bancroft. A great book that can help not just people who draw cartoons but also realistic ones. As it helps you with facial ques and how to make a character interesting.
"Albinus on anatomy" by Robert Beverly Hale and Terence Coyle. Great book to help someone learn basic anatomy.
"Artistic Anatomy" by Dr. Paul Richer and Robert Beverly Hale. A good book if you want to go further in-depth with anatomy.
"Directing the story" by Francis Glebas. A good book if you want to Story board or make comics.
"Animal Anatomy for Artists" by Eliot Goldfinger. A good book for if you want to draw animals or creatures.
"Constructive Anatomy: with almost 500 illustrations" by George B. Bridgman. A great book to help you block out shadows in your figures and see them in a more 3 diamantine way.
"Dynamic Anatomy: Revised and expand" by Burne Hogarth. A book that shows how to block out shapes and easily understand what you are looking out. When it comes to human subjects.
"An Atlas of animal anatomy for artist" by W. Ellenberger and H. Dittrich and H. Baum. This is another good one for people who want to draw animals or creatures.
Etherington Brothers, they make books and have a free blog with art tips.
📝As for Supplies, I recommend starting out cheap, buying Pencils and art paper at dollar tree or 5 below. If you want to go fancy Michaels is always a good place for traditional supplies. They also get in some good sales and discounts. For digital art, I recommend not starting with a screen art drawing tablet as they are usually more expensive.
For the Best art Tablet I recommend either Xp-pen, Bamboo or Huion. Some can range from about 40$ to the thousands.
💻As for art programs here is a list of Free to pay.
Clip Studio paint ( you can choose to pay once or sub and get updates. Galaxy, Windows, macOS, iPad, iPhone, Android, or Chromebook device. )
Procreate ( pay once for $9.99 usd, IPAD & IPHONE ONLY)
Blender (for 3D modules/sculpting, animation and more. Free)
PaintTool SAI (pay but has a 31 day free trail)
Krita (Free)
mypaint (free)
FireAlpaca (free)
Aseprite ($19.99 usd but has a free trail, for pixel art Windows & macOS)
Drawpile (free and for if you want to draw with others)
IbisPaint (free, phone app ONLY)
Medibang (free, IPAD, Android and PC)
NOTE: Some of these can work on almost any computer like Clip and Sai but others will require a bit stronger computer like Blender. Please check their sites for if your computer is compatible.
So do with this information as you will but as you can tell there are ways to learn how to become an artist, without breaking the bank. The only thing that might be stopping YOU from using any of these things, is YOU.
I have made time to learn to draw and many artist have too. Either in-between working two jobs or taking care of your family and a job or regular school and chores. YOU just have to take the time or use some time management, it really doesn't take long to practice for like an hour or less. YOU also don't have to do it every day, just once or three times a week is fine.
Hope this was helpful and have a great day.

Boosting this in case any of the programs and books suggested are useful.
All the photos on this tumblr ad the animal photo reference site I run is another resource available for artists to use!
As long as you’re not using AI to create your art, you can reference / trace / draw / recombine / make any sort of art you want, with any of the photos, for free.
There's also MORPHO, a really good book series on anatomy by Michel Lauricella, with very clear explanations and sketches!
And for pose references, there's @adorkastock who shares a ton of them for free, with different models and props, and her website is amazing <3 you can also buy pose packs from her.
Twenty/Teito and Scout/Harper are still a thing in my story except it's a love story between the god of weather and the god of spring I think their ship name should be AprilShowers
I need to make ship names for all the planned ships I say as I haven't even fucking posted the ENTIRE LIST OF CHARACTERS YET
HOW does one make an intro post for the 7000000000 time/silly
Reposting my art fight again to try my luck waugh. Hi! I'm a very beginner artist participating in art fight mostly to do it with my besties. I have some attack plans in queue, and I will attempt to revenge anyone who may attack me! (So long as they don't mind beginning level traditional artwork)
If you like characters that are gods, star themed, puppets, "furries"/creatures, cats, foxes, you might like my currently up OCS :] (I plan on also adding another later when I have the chance)
Okay time to explode and pass out
An art gifting game
I think the funniest thing Toby Fox could do is not have Papyrus show up in Deltarune at all and then in the post credits after you you beat the game you'd see a message appear that says "you can now play with Papyrus" and then he'd be retroactively inserted into every single chapter like some kind of new game+
Bro blocked me for calling them out and backtracked like a coward LMFAOOOOOO
Not even an actual apology to Sam? For lying about them and being an ableist piece of shit??? No? Sure buddy lol
This is NOT your thing to be moving on from btw YOU caused this YOU should be owning up and apologising directly because weren't you working on communication :( or was that a lie too
So They deleted both the original post AND the above "apology" that wasn't even up for a full hour before they took it down. And then back tracked because my close friend called them out on their behavior. They panicked because we spoke up about it and is instead trying to act like it didn't happen instead of at the VERY least allowing their apology to stay up.
Their name is cropped out for privacy, but this is the entirety of the deleted post they made about me. A long horrific rant about how and why they wanted me to feel miserable about my decision. All because I blocked them after the first attempt to peacefully cut ties and go our separate ways was met with guilt tripping me into agreeing to a "break".
Saying I didn't at all try to talk to you, that I abandoned you without a word, that I "made myself unavailable 24/7" while I'm PHYSICALLY DISABLED. WORKING OVER 40 HOURS A WEEK, always put when I'm working in my discord status (and even then I would still reply to things I would just be slow. I told you that.), and literally asked you to come to me if you needed anything. Even if it was just to hang out for a bit. Publicly shaming me for not being able to handle how you were treating me and my friend and calling it a "massive L"... It's just shitty and scary to hear someone genuinely think of me like this, and it's nerve wracking to receive this info from a RANDOM MUTUAL I haven't talked to in forever.
I did attempt to do this without blocking them out of the blue. I do not enjoy randomly cutting my friends off without warning or explanation. In fact if it's a communication error I PREFER we talk things out before anything happens. But again it proved to have backfired on me. I had to put myself first. (Note, first screenshot was taken just today to show that the message is still there to this day. All of the screenshots are in my other post)
(cont.)
I truly hope my former friend can heal and do better. I really don't hold malice towards them. Even after this. But I can't be a part of their healing journey. Especially if it means my friends and I are treated like this. I am not obligated to stick around while people get their shit together. Especially if me and my friends being harmed is part of the "progress".
I deserve better than this. I shouldn't have to be afraid of cutting people off when needed out of fear they'll publicly talk about how horrible I am for putting myself first. Something I've always struggled to do in the past (and still struggle with).
Thank you once more for your time. I apologize for dragging this further. Please do not harass or witch hunt anyone.
Movement study from today with @anim.osztag !!! :DD
OK ANYWAYS hopefully I'll finish my OC list soon would y'all wanna ask me questions about my ocs....when I finish the huge big ol list.... Of....over 50 OCS....
That I have to write for...../silly
I'm feeling a little better today, still anxious but overall okay. Thank you so much to everyone for the kind words and reassurance and further helping me understand that I don't have to put up with people who treat me and my friends badly. And I do not have to stay with them just because they struggle with mental health issues (as someone who also struggles heavily with being mentally ill)
Looking back at this person's post I'm less afraid and more angry. At how they lied about what happened, about how they put me down for "being unavailable" (while knowing I work full time hours at a famously anti-worker corporation while being disabled), shaming me for "being unable to handle them at their worst" (in their words, not being able to handle that they say/do bad stuff they regret is "a massive L"), and in general just wanting me to suffer and feel "exactly how they feel" and announcing publicly they hate that I'm happy. How I shouldn't be happy because I'm not in their life anymore. That I "abandoned" them. While leaving out how they were shitty to my friend and me and how they guilt tripped me into "agreeing" to a break in order to make me look bad.
It hurts. Even now I want to believe they're not a bad person, I would like for them to actually change as they claim they've been trying to do. But the way they handled all of this was absolutely repulsive and has made me never want any form of contact with them ever again.
Old friend, if you're still watching my blog (somehow, considering I've blocked you on here as well), if me being happy outside of our friendship genuinely makes you miserable, if it truly makes you angry and want me to suffer further, if this is the route you take after already not letting me end our friendship on mutual terms without a fight, then that's a fucking you problem.
My friends and I have had to put up with a lot of people treating us badly. I'm tired of taking shit. Your mental health isn't an excuse to be horrible to me or my friends. I am not obligated to remain friends with you. I tried to end our friendship on good terms and you made me panic and go back on my word for YOUR sake.
If me being happy without you really makes you that upset and spiteful then just fucking seethe. Your behavior and shitty vague post have further proven that I made the right choice to cut ties with you. I truly hope you're able to get help and get better. But I don't want anything to do with it or you.
For now the posts with the screenshots will remain up. I highly recommend looking the reblogs of the original, as I have the screenshots of the incident there and my bestie has a really good analysis and put things into words better than I did.
And thank you so much again to my friends for your kindness in these trying times. I genuinely hope this is the last post I gotta make about this.
Once again, if there's something going on, if there's something we need to talk about, or if you just wanna talk to me in general then PLEASE come to me. I heavily prefer to talk things out and communicate. I promise I do.
Thank you for your time
