Your Favourite Style of Art?
 

Bleh, bored... -.-;;;;; anyways... chose..

`Wildie

(edit- sorry, meant to throw 'other' in there.)

Eh Wildie, furry is the thing you draw, not a style. :P

Yeah, 'furry' is a subject, not a style. You can easily spot differences between a cartoonishly-drawn anthropomorphic, a realistically-drawn one, etc...

As for me, I prefer cartoonish. Specifically, unique styles that either borrow from very few sources and make something new up, or borrow from many sources and make something new out of them. I like seeing something new when I see a new artist, not copying the same old stuff everyone else does. :-)

By the by, I edited the poll for ya, Wild.

Hm, maybe that should be a multiple choice poll? *g*

I'd say "other" + "furry". What does angular fall under? I love styles done with quick strokes and sharp edges, pure solic colours,... My favorite style is 'stylish'. :p

I IS DRAEWD STUP LOGS ADN STUPED LOZR BAKGRUNDS AHAHAHHAROLOLOLOLROFLROFL!!!!!!!!111111111 PLZ DONT SHOOT ME K?????????//// PLZ??? =O!!!!!!!!!1111111

Other. Although....Because I don't draw Furry, Anime, Cartoon, Humans/Realistic etc., people have a tendency to overlook my artwork/laugh at me. (although PiZZie doesn't care, seeing that my featured subjects are LOGS in TEH FOREST.) ;-P

ABSTRACT PLZ

There is nothing better drawn than nothing at all.

Que Passa!!!!

Hmm... Rather hard choice... I think I mostly like cartoonish art, but that can include SOME anime (Particularly the kind that I grew up loving, like Maya the Bee, and The Noozels.), and as for furry's, a majority of the stuff I like DOES contain them, but they don't have to be there for me to like them(Ex. I've been a Popeye fan for years- the closest thing to a furry there is Eugine the Jeep, and he doesn't count because he's a jeep.)
And as for realistic stuff, you all know I love Howard the Duck, and that comic is Marvel- so you know it's got the Marvel style of realism(Admittingly, Howards eyes are far too big for his head, but its acceptable.)
And as for "Other" I've grown up surrounded by the art works of Jacob Lawrence due to my grandmother being a freind of his. http://www.africanpubs.com/Apps/bios...renceJacob.asp
Therefore, abstract art is one of the best in my opinion.
I guess I'll have to go with Cartoony since that's the kind of stuff I mostly associate with myself, but I agree that this should be multichoice.

"See her flying through the air,
Buzzing here and buzzing there,
Saying 'Catch me if you dare',
Busy buzzing everywhere..."
-Maya the bee theme song.

Anime + Furry,that's my style and UBER-CEWT!^-^
(I like cute!;))

Anime is simply the best style to express emotions on persons and to make it look CUTE! XB Or ugly,depends!;)

And furry cos that's what I draw and I dislike humans,most of'm...^_^;

Bah I despise Anime.

I like the cartoonish furry style. :)

Realistic.

Like Michalangelo

*points to the question on the poll*

I have an excuse- I put down the topic name then I found it didn't apply to what I was doing. Hmph.

*stalks off coldly and heartlessly*

not in the best mood, `wildie

Realistic.

Too many people draw Anime and Furry. Sure, lots of people do realistic stuff aswell, but realistic tends to be more varied.

I do like Furry and Anime, but every single drawing Furry or Anime (or both) looks the same to me.

Cartoons are the best for expressing emotion, and can look cute, Picollo. :p

Personally, I like quick, yet long strokes. Get a huge peice of paper and draw with my arm, not my wrist. Best for life-drawing and all that. The realistic stuff. And realistic is the most meaningful... It doesn't necessarily have to be perfect. It can mean something. And be easy to look at.

Cartoonish. Reality frightens me and someday I will destroy it XD.

And Velk, nobody laughs at your artwork, ;p.

I agree, Furry is a thing you draw, not a style. Shame I already voted for that ><.

Que Passa!!!!

We must join forces sometime...

I voted for furry :P

Same. There's just something about fur...

...

^_^

Yep,reality sucks!

*joins Batty and Kaz*

...oh,we still talking about art-styles?^^;

Piccolo, we're talkin' life here. :-)

(Well, okay, we're talking art, but art imitates life, so it's good enough)

I enjoy both Furry and Anime. I try to use both in my art. For those who have seen any of my current stuff (which is not many), you could see what i mean. :)

Go, cartoonish style, ya!!!

I like it. It´s cool. It´s not like this anime stuff, which I can't stand......these eyes are terrible!:D

So, cartoonish style would be my choice...is my choice.

Depends on the artist......... *Sigh* Don't stereotype anime for DBZ *hurls* Kaori Yuki draws BEAUTIFUL eyes

`Wildie

Since when was furry art "realistic"? ;)

Hmm... there is a certain anatomy you're suppoused to follow with it, and some people can make things look real ;p.

Quit voting for furry, it could go under any of the other votes!

Gothic isn't just black dresses of silk and crimson walls and black hair. Goth is attitude. You know vampires are rated 'Gothic', but everyone knows that. Just because you draw a vampire doesn't mean you're a goth. It means you drew a vampire. I say alot of 'goths' are wanna-be's. Real goths listen to gothic metal, they find a beauty in death, not being they want to die, but they just find a wonderful beauty in it, crimson, black, and dark purple are 'primary' colours... But that's modern goth. I would go all oldschool, but it's pointless.

Stop getting the idea in your head that goth is black and white makeup like a domino and black clothing. Besides, labels suck and the term gothic originated from a German group, I believe.

(edit)----

Now, if you don't know what lugubrious means, go look it up. It's not perverted, I'll say that and leave the rest to your own minds.

Now, question me, and since my mood is rather raw... no comment.

`Wildie

Goths don't have to listen to "gawthik metal" to be goth. A true goth could listen to Britney Spears and still be a goth.

GO WILDIE!:D

You do have a point there, Cobra. As my very close friend says, "True, true. It's all in the attitude, the rest is extraneous. You could wear all pink, listen to disco and still be gothic, so long as you had the attitude, it's just that most that have the attitude like black, like metal, as it fits their mood/personality."

I was speaking of modern gothic 'standards' should I say?

`Wildie

I saw some pretty realistic 3d furry artworks on VCL, don't remember which account thought.

I know nothing about goths, except that most goths are try-hards who think it's new and "different".

It's just another way to be "cool" in my eyes.

Que Passa!!!!

Too bad there isn't anything called "Murphy" art...
... Hmm, Maybe I'll be a trend-setter.

Everyone: Go out and draw "Murphy" art in which the worst stuff imaginable happens to normal people. If you don't, you will be uncool and nobody will like you!

/\:D/\

Dun worry,boss,I was gonna do that in my story anyways(since it shows my own life! :p)

Trend-category's-cool-hype...
just a few words, ain't gonna say more about it.

But we're talking about art here! I looove realism, especially surrealism thats drawn realistic, like Dali or some things of Giger and Micheal Whelan.

O NO PLZ DNOT ASK ME 4 COMENT ON STUP GOHTS PLZ THX
 

I SHALL HEREBY TAKE THE ROAD OF MY ELEVENTH COUSIN NINE TIMES REMOVED:

<insert witty unrelated comment here>


THIS IS WHAT A **REAL** GOTH LOOKS LIKE, BY THE WAY:




---

I insist on drawing semi-realistic backgrounds, and other miscellaneous boring stuff. If there is an art-related talent I have, it is expressed solely in writing, not drawing. Leave the Gothic/furry/blah-rific stuff to other people, I say. ;-P

In other words, I shall ponder about writing my poem (taedium vitae), rather than drawing.

About goths? Hey, it seems like a lot of the girls here claim to be "goths", and they seem to get a lot of attention. I could be a conformist, and say "HEY IM A GTOH 2 CNA I JOEN UR CLUB SO I CANE GIT LOTS OF ATENTION.??????////". The purgatory with it; I'm a lightning gun-wielding nerd, not a goth. ;-P

I find live, breathing humans attractive.

Death is an eternal sleep and it's peaceful. It's quiet, and we meet loved ones in it, right? It's very.. amazing... very incredible indeed. Imagine all the souls of the world together in one place at one time. Yeah, I don't need lectured on religion and wisdom. I'm agnostic-- I think it's impossible to know if there really is a god or not.

`Wildie

What if when we die, we're just in comas, and when we're burried we come alive and then we rot alive and stuff. But can't movie cos of everything they did to preserve us.


What the hell did all that have to do with ary, Wildie?

I dunno... I just typed and it came. I type therefore I am. o.0;;

`wildie

"They stick you in a box and throw you in a hole, and don't let you out, not even on weekends."

There is no beauty in death, and there is less beauty in life.

Suicide is just a cowards way out of this world.

To live is to die.
