Why Does The TikTok Art Community Have A Problem With This Artstyle?

if you draw with chicken scratch comment here

The problem isn’t people chicken scratching. It’s the fact people are policing artists from trying to learn how to draw or even using chicken scratch as an art style which shouldn’t affect anyone

Using chicken scratch is neat when drawing horror or intense sketches in my eyes not sure chicken scratch is problematic but its tiktok people so it makes sense

The art community's obsession with "style" and "finding your style" exhausts me. It's at the point where lack of skill and random unconventional techniques are seen as an art style 😭 just draw what and how you like and thats your style. Stop obsessing over it i cryyyy Also happy birthday

The whole Chicken scratch is very situational, sometimes it is a learning curb but I'll purposely chicken scratch certain parts of my drawings because I like the look of it (Like how i also color with primarily crayons/colored pencils bc I like the vibe of texurted coloring). Overalll most "bad" techniques can work for certain people. Art is COMPLETELY subjective and the tiktok art community (Most prominently,aside from twitter/X) doesnt seem to understand that not everyone wants smooth anime or hyper-realistic artstyles.

Remember, most of people on TikTok you are arguing are like 13-15 year olds.. that explains all unreasonable art drama

I have shaky hands, I physically cannot create a straight line in one stroke, I can, however, create the illusion of a straight line using multiple smaller lines

Beginner artists: breath TikTok art community: “so you have chosen…death!”

Honestly I'm just gonna start drawing in styles that TikTok hates just to piss them off 😂

tiktok art community trying not to start drama challenge (impossible 99% fail)

As a person who refuses to ever touch TikTok, I watch these videos like I watch a Nature documentary about seals living in the deep cold sea I watch with horror, go 😟 and feel thankful for how I'm not part of the ecosystem

I love seeing new artist, as they're trying something new and I hope they continue. Plus I use chicken scratch a lot in my art when sketching

i watched this video at like 12 am then proceeded to use it to fall asleep to because you're voice was lowkey soothing

WE LITERALLY JUST STOPPED HATING ON THE JELLY ART STYLE

People with no sense of style love to call everything a style. If somebody likes to draw with messy scratching - go ahead, I've seen some good and pretty examples of it. Slay the princess is a full game done with that technique. But ultimately it is just a technique. Not a style. Style is much more than just a way you do strokes with your pencil, although it can be a part of it. But just a part, not something that stands on its own.

i genuinely love your content so much! i know this is your message in all your videos but i love that you understand people can draw however they want and people should never make fun of them for that, beginner or not! i love that you defend every innocent person in the art community that gets immense amounts of hate for virtually 0 reason besides people being @ssholes... even if they think their helping, if a person doesn't want criticism dont give it to them! art is meant to be fun, and i can easily see the art community dying down from the insane amount of negativity in it... so youre really what the art community needs right now, thank you! <3

People on TikTok be acting like this way of drawing is recent 💀I did that shiz since I was 12 💀 Do these people not know what storyboards, speedpaints, or rough sketches are? I did that all the time, especially in my sketch phases. Sure it can make a drawing look messy af, but not “bad” and can help. What also helps in digital art is making a rough, messy sketch layer, then making a more refined version to show what lines you want to draw in the mess. Some people like their art rough. Artists tend to work and build on the messiness and clean up in the process, making it look more refined. Also AHH- DA- BIRTHDAAAAAAY!

I absolutely love the chicken scratch/messy atrstyle, it's the reason I started drawing myself and I often use those kinds of drawings as insperation and references

I've always used the chicken scratch "artstyle" because I feel it gives my drawings more personality, plus, if I want to clean it up later I always can

ngl, a sketchy artstyle with lines exactly like described here is what I'd say is perfection for me it's interesting, it has a lot of character and places for expression.
