It does but in the context of this thread, and it's location in osu's Art subforum and not in the Music Hall subforum, I'm assuming OP meant visual arts.



Been holding off in answering these, sorely because I quesion whether I am truly in an art career or not.

Question 1. What career path are you interested or currently in?
- At the moment, nothing. I've yet to find something I'm truly interested in.

Question 2. How did you get into the arts?
- Boredom, one day, a few years back. I guess a young me was interested in creating worlds and seeing them come to life.

Question 3. What do you like the most about it?
- The idea that it's like a bottomless pit. You're limited by only your imagination, otherwise you can create a large variety of pieces.

Question 4. What don't you like about it?
- In my opinion, it takes so much time to perfect. Sometimes it's quite frustrating, to me at least.

Question 5. How did you get your art noticed?
- It hasn't? I rarely show the majority of whatever I draw to people.

Question 6. What challenges have you faced in the arts?
- Improving. I started from scratch with no previous experience. Even now, I'm going at this on my own.
- Also, motivation. I'm always harsh on what I make, so if it never goes right for too long, it puts me off.

Question 7. Is the arts always what you wanted to pursue or was there another field you wanted to get involved in?
- No. To be honest, I don't have any strong aspirations. I wanted to be a pilot once, then an architect, then a chef... :v

Question 8. How do you think your art affects people?
- It doesn't? Idk, I just want them to smile ever so slightly or say 'wow' when they see a piece I made.

Question 9. What advice would you give to people who what to pursue a future in the arts or in the career you're currently in?
- I'd say if you're really passionate about it, whether art or another field, you put your all into it.
- Keep at it. Experience is valuable. The more you do, the quicker you'll get the hang of it.

Question 1. What career path are you interested or currently in?
I want to study gastronomy someday when i graduate from IB

Question 2. How did you get into the arts?
Maybe when i saw this forum like 4 months ago and got inspired by some artists who do GFX in this subforum

Question 3. What do you like the most about it?
Well. what i like about is that for example my main-style is C4D which is very 3d like or let us say other worldly or unnatural so if i had to put it in 1 sentence it must be that i like to put these characters i use in my own world and let them tell a story about themselves

Questions 4. What don't you like about it?
What i dont like about it is that it takes a ton of times for me i've done GFX for the past 4 months and i've spent tons of hours and sleepless hours on it just to try and improve myself.
Sometimes it really frustrates me when the art that i make is just another one for the trashbin >.<

Question 5. How did you get your art noticed?
Well... it all started when i made my own thread on this subforum and spread my art on to DeviantArt now i made a discord group called Artem Familia where the artists in this subforum can share and show their knowledge and techniques to try and improve eachother in the field of GFX.

Question 6. What challenges have you faced in the arts?
It is where i tried and learned certain styles that contains very difficult techniques and try to learn them and failed one after another.

Question 7. Is the arts always what you wanted to pursue or was there another field you wanted to get involved in?
Well i want to be a chef lmao. but i just got into this shit because i drew tons before.

Question 8. How do you think your art affects people?
Well i just want them to see what i made and hopefully get inspired

Question 9. What advice would you give to people who what to pursue a future in the arts or in the career you're currently in?
I would say never give up
