Hi!

Which aspects, in your opinion, make a person be good at drawing and painting?

My bet is Neptune...

I was known in my kindergarted for drawing princesses who actually resembled humans (seemed like a miracle to other kids) and did it often for them. Unfortunately my skills haven't progressed much

Wow, my 12th house is full, Mercury, Mars, Sun and Pluto. I'm a Scorpio ASC. My Venus is in the 1st.

I love to paint and draw. Since I was a little girl, I remember myself with a pencil and paper making some good scrawls

But with job, I almost have no time to draw. ;(

I'm so jealous of people who can draw very well. Especially of those who have a photographic precision. I like drawing but I'm very average at it.

I actually looked at all the horoscopes of the best drawers/painters in my art college (my year only) and noticed this:

- many of the talented drawers esp. those who have a talent for realism have Mars in Gemini
- almost all of the painters have Moon in Pisces
- Neptune aspects the Sun and/or Venus with all
- lots of stelliums or one big stellium

Well, I have stellium between Scorpio and Saggitarius, between 12th/1st house. Maybe this is the one for me.. =) I love to draw animals anf landscapes...

Mars in Gemini again.... They do many things in so little time... I'd like to have this Mars...

edit:
sorry I didn't see your other comments. I think the Venus in the 1st house plus the large stellium are probably the reason why you have that talent.

I am average at drawing too and my proportion is downright lacking. My fave way to draw is to work on a grid, it helps with proportion and perspective, then use charcoal pencils to create all kinds of textures and details. This way I don't have to have that sense of proportion, measuring with a pencil, which I have always hated doing, and I can still create something that has a lot of talent and people comment on how the textures look so real.

Art can be about imaginative creatures and craftmanship as much as innate talent and likeness skills.

It's about exploring the creative process imo. A lot of people think it's about likeness and proportion and if you don't have that, you have no value or talent as an artist. I disagree with that mentality.

I am the same with music, it's about adding to something, sampling and creating a soundscape in the studio so when you are finished, you have this work of art, much like a drawing or painting only it's recorded.

This is how I approach art, not so much raw talent or mastering an instrument, more about ingenuity and what can I add to make it different?

My opinion is anyone can be an artist if they are willing to explore and figure things out, even if they do not think they are great at capturing likeness and space.

I'm one of the Mars in Gemini people and I love that mars placement for art. Just not for love lol

Why not for love?

No problem, and what do you think Leo moon? Can give it too??

My 12th house is pretty full as well and I have a first house venus. I love painting, especially when I'm upset lol. It's the best stress reliever.

Leo Moon is very artistic but much more out there than Pisces or Cancer Moon. Better for performing imo. I know one AWESOME drawer who has a Leo Moon (he has a mars in gemini as well).
I think Gemini mars is very impatient. It can get bored easily and that is a huge negative for any relationship. I can be insanely in love with someone and then suddenly it's gone. I'm lucky that my other placements are a bit more stable but mars is still quite important.

Likeness is not asked for in modern art circles/art colleges. It is often frowned upon. I've been criticized and even called "non-creative" because my drawing style is too old-school. so I think that that is more a popular opinion but it's completely different in professional circles believe me

Hum, now I understand why my ex was crazy after me in the beggining, then out of the blue, he left me!

I like to perform, but I'm a bit too shy. My Jupiter is in 5/6th house in Aries, this can me a significant one?

And I'm sorry about your Bf.

No problem, at least I had a good time with him in a moment that I wasn't good at home. He gave me lots of caring and fun. He will be always a good memory inside my mind! Having Venus in opposite his Mars, what a funny aspect!

Ah, for 5th house, I have North Node... Wow I discover everything now \o/

My art teacher always used to tell me that I have interesting ideas and good imagination, but sadly I always lacked drawing skills to show any potential that I would have.

Hi chargeomentum!

How about make a duo with someone who draw and you telling him/her about your ideas?

i enjoy painting/drawing for a very long time,for almost 30 years...my mum stimulated it as she is also good at drawing painting.she said that my earliest expos have been in kindergarden where i already tried out putting small and big characters in a drawing in a certain way sothat there was some depth.already since childhood i developed a passion for silent arts and still doing it!i have sun-saturn in 29-0 virgo-libra in the 12th house,jupiter next to juno also in 22-24virgo also in the 12th house! but my other passion as a child always has been dancing and stageperformance...and thats something i associate with my leo-aqua natal placements.i have leo SN conjunct venus in 11th and aqua NN not far away from my aqua moon in 5th.i like all kinds of arts and i totally think that the proper traditional skills of drawing/painting are basics that can contribute to good progress but those are also basics that are not necessarily needed in the world of arts today...as the modern art trend is more about *the content* instead of *well-developed-skills*.in dance,i started out with basics ballet,did that for over a decade and i clearly could see my advantage through ballet when i later did some modern dance compared to those without having basics in ballet....the saturn-sun in my natal 12th house wants perfection...the aqua moon wants advancement and orginality

ah yes and i also did some streemusic,singing plus guitar
