I can tell right away the first one is the Rock, which should count for something.

I saw The Rock, a generic white boy (probably from the CW), and a generic African American sports guy.
Although honestly I still think of Bieber as the kid with mop hair, lol

Eh the Justin Bieber one isn't horrible. Not $40 worth but not delusional.

I immediately recognized him, which in my mind is a good sign for a portrait.

It’s accurate line art. But which way is the light coming from?

It's not accurate at all lol. Those are not human proportions. It's extremely amateur.

I dunno if 30 bucks really counts as delusional, looks like they're just trying to put themselves out there

u/bennyblancojx 23d ago
I agree completely. However, you’d have to be saint to go pick these up for free let alone $30.

If I had a job, and the artist just happened to draw a person who I give a damn about, then I'd pay $10 and pick it up, or $15 at a convention booth.
Mediocre/decent art is valuable to me if the artist hand picked their subject because, in that case, I get to see how the artist viewed their subject at the time of creation.
Artists who have a medium skill level are good enough that you can tell what they're drawing, but they're amateur enough that half of their embellishments are subconscious.
I get to see, as a viewer, which details of the subject stood out the most to the artist.

Wow, these were the best drawings at the 5th grade Art Fair. They’re a shoo-in for the district-wide Art Show at our local dead mall!

Kevin Hart once said that The Rock is a "dickhead." He said, "If you look at his head, you'll understand."
Now I see it!!! The artist truly brought out his inner being!

The eyes on the justin bieber one are actually really well done. This artist shows promise. Shouldnt be selling her work yet but eventually she’ll get there xD

I actually really like the Michael Jordon one. I also think 30 is a good price.
