What's even more interesting to me, and almost never represented in this sort of post, is that oftentimes the "after" images that are shown here actually represent only part of the evolution of a lot of artists. Everyone begins drawing with the goal of reproducing realistic images. With practice, many artists master this. And then eventually a lot of artists who have mastered realistic representational art evolve beyond it, realizing that visual arts have the ability to convey both ideas and emotions through non-realistic elements that resonate with viewers in a different way. This is where artists find and express their individuality, and where they move beyond technicians to express themselves and not just to draw what they see in front of them. Van Gogh and Picasso were both relatively realistic early in their careers, but neither is famous because he reproduced what he saw. Both will be remembered through time because they created representations of what they imagined and felt.
This post is proof that anyone can learn to draw, it just takes practice, and determination just like anything else. I've been in art courses where people go into it only being able to draw stick figures, and come out of it with a completely honed skill of drawing.
These are really cool! I just wish people would stop commenting "I wish I could do this", or "I'm so not like this". First of all this is self-hate, and it also puts the attention on yourself, not the artist. Thanks!
