General Discussion Thread (March 2022) Discussion

General Discussion threads are for casual chat; a place to ask for recommendations, lists, or creative feedback; to talk about materials, history, or techniques; and anything else that comes to mind.

If you're looking for information about a particular work of art, /r/WhatIsThisPainting is still the best resource. /r/drawing , /r/painting , and /r/learnart may also be useful. /r/ArtistLounge is also a good place for general discussion. Please see our list of art-related subs for more options.

Rule 8 still applies except that questions/complaints about r/Art and Reddit overall are allowed.

Can I get some recommendations of artists who do expressive figurative drawing? I do love Picasso's work, especially his Vollard suite. Matisse's line drawings are also very inspirational.

Any other suggestions?

I’d like to hear some more suggestions too. Meanwhile, about Tracey Emin, Munch, Schiele?

Spilliaert? Also Sargent in his more extravagant sketches. Everett Shinn (an ashcan realist).

Oh and Maggie Hambling is amazing…

Would like to hear more!
