Why the art community is a steaming pile of horse shit, a thread https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😌" title="Relieved face" aria-label="Emoji: Relieved face">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💫" title="Dizzy symbol" aria-label="Emoji: Dizzy symbol">

(1/?) Now I& #39;ve only been in the art community for around 4 years now but that has been more that enough for me to realise that it is one of the most toxic communities in the whole internet, who knew that a community based on drawing could hold such toxicty and hate?

(2/?) Now I& #39;m not going to talk about all of the problems it holds, since I don& #39;t want this thread to go on forever, but I think we can all agree that most of the drama that occurs in this community in some way has to do with tracing, usually tracing other artists work

(3/?) But something that I& #39;ve noticed during the last couple of weeks is people getting all butt hurt when an artist slightly traces the outline or some facial features of the person they& #39;re drawing (traced from a photograph) and receiving tons of hate because of it
