Background Art
| It's hard.
| Its because of different factors i think. But Lost importantly everyone wants to be on thé spotlight
And for having done backgrounds on pixel art. People wont bé ashamed to steal it even more
| Background are can be difficulty to do and ppl are lazy to learn how to do.
| it's really hard to do at first and it's still an art itself by the complecity of the techniques you need to use to make it beautiful,but still it's a must for artists that wanna make their art rise up
| See, I understand it's difficult and requires completely different techniques than working on drawing say a human or an animal or something, but if, from the get-go, a new artist did only background art and only did that kind of work for years, similar to how some people only work on characters for years, then they'd be damn good at it.
So that's what I'm wondering. Why is it less popular to start your career doing landscape stuff?

That sounds reasonable. Certainly, before I started doing background practice, I didn't really pay too close attention to that stuff. But, I dunno about that. When I started art, I didn't start off drawing characters to be famous or to be in the spotlight. I just draw because I like it.
| Even now I don't really care for being in the spotlight. I, and my artist friends, are even tired of compliments. Not to say that I don't enjoy them from time to time. But it's all you ever hear, most of the time. What I want is criticism, real hard criticism. More than anything I want to improve my art and becoming well-known is an afterthought. Probably why I'm bad at getting my name out there to get more views for more commissions. I don't really care for that and that's bad lol

| Why is it so unpopular? Maybe it actually isn't, but most of the artists I know never do any background art. I mean, I don't either, but I've been practicing it because it's a good skill to include.
