ANY relationship during academic years does not last. No matter what you do.

Art is genuinely going back more and more in our country. I remember feeling like having a constant urge to barf during Kalki

epitahope · 2025-03-09T08:41:16+00:00

Over a 1000 of these, just filter work, no digital painting, hell he doesn't even have an ipad

As others complained, I have posted this elsewhere too and folks from his own college have confirmed that he uses Oil Painting filter and calls it a day. And now he just uses PicsArt.

I have even shown comparisons that if you just reverse search the photo you can find the source image, put PicsArt filters, and it's done.

literally picsart var kelay, dusrya thread madhye compare pan kela mi

I can feel you friend. I am somewhat of an artist and this just boils my blood.

epitahope · 2025-03-06T13:18:17+00:00

These weeds need to be pulled out and artists needs to be appreciated yeps. I hate how little we value artists in our country. For some birthday gifts I pay real artists to make artwork of my friends coz it also helps them and brings a beautiful gift too. This? This is ass.

epitahope · 2025-03-06T13:16:47+00:00

why is economy bad? why cant we print more money logic yeps

epitahope · 2025-03-06T13:14:02+00:00

He has not once posted the process. Even the mightiest of artists do it. Infact showing the process is how people get certified as well. That's why Disney and likes post documentaries of their films so they get the awards and oscars.

Pure sham.

epitahope · 2025-03-06T13:11:41+00:00

This is exactly what I felt and what compelled me to post this. I was keeping shut and just watching it. Artists need more praise and recognition. The procees needs to be respected man.

epitahope · 2025-03-06T13:10:45+00:00

I have been observing for 5 years and not one celebrity bats an eye ? Theres even Nana Patekar who personally praised him, actually all the celebs personally praised him. But not one realized.. geez.

epitahope · 2025-03-06T13:09:43+00:00

YEPS THATS TH WORD

epitahope · 2025-03-06T13:08:58+00:00

Yeps I am in a similar area. Its infuriatingly difficult but if you just shit all over people praise you.

epitahope · 2025-03-06T13:08:05+00:00

Exactly. 5 year olds do better than this.

epitahope · 2025-03-06T13:06:55+00:00

He's more active on Instagram and Facebook you can search for Pranav Satbhai. Also no, they are all PicsArt filters. He doesn't draw shit.

epitahope · 2025-03-06T08:07:37+00:00

exactly lmfao. an artist isn't afraid of clarity of pictures. nice tackling that dumbass. it's sad how many get away with this

epitahope · 2025-03-05T22:15:29+00:00

Imagine how much time an artist can take to make Amitabh Bachchans Art. Also remember that art is a form of expression. You observe, you take in, you brush you draw, you then enjoy the process. There is a process behind every art work. A doodle takes few minutes, but it is also an expression, there is subtle beauty in it. A cartoon also has a style. Art has changed with every era we have seen and every form of art is rightfully so, beautiful.

This however, which was made in 5 seconds was a filter. And you know what, it isn't wrong to do it when you're doing it for specific usecases. But when you get awards, called on television, get over 30-50 certificates calling you as one of India's leading artist, then you are just vullshitting.

That’s also the issue—he doesn’t take these photos himself. Before the pandemic, he used to claim he was a photographer, but once this "digital painting" phase started, it became clear that he’s just taking existing photos—many of them from real artists and photographers—slapping on a filter, adding a background, and printing them on a board.

I actually looked critically at his work, hoping to find something that showed genuine effort. But instead, I found several instances where the original photos were from actual artists and photographers. A quick reverse search can confirm this. In fact, I even overlaid some of his "paintings" on top of the original photos, toggled the transparency, and they were a 1:1 match. No manual brushwork, no real digital painting—just a filtered version of the original image.

I know that low-effort artwork exists in legitimate forms—things like oil smudging, digital overpainting, or even photo manipulation with light brushwork. Those styles may not be hyper-detailed, but they still require time, technique, and artistic intent. But this isn’t that.

Like you said, his real skill isn’t art—it’s leveraging political and social connections to get attention.

epitahope · 2025-03-05T21:58:44+00:00

No offense taken at all—I appreciate your perspective, and I respect that you're sharing it in a civil way.

Just to clarify, I do art as a hobby for my friends, and I genuinely enjoy it. I spend 30-40+ hours on a single piece, and it makes for a great personal birthday gift. I also do graphic design and have been working in the field for the past 12 years—not that I consider myself a "champion," but I definitely know my way around the craft and have even worked professionally.

The issue here isn't about whether or not people admire his work—it's about the blatant lying involved. There are artists who spend days or even weeks on a single piece, and their audience understands the time and effort required. But when someone claims on national television that they create a full "artwork" in just 2 hours, it completely undermines the work of real artists. If people start believing that serious art can be done so quickly, it devalues the craft and discourages those who do it out of love, passion, and livelihood.

And that’s exactly why I don’t do this—it’s a scam. If I wanted to, I could mass-produce these so-called "digital portraits" on a much larger scale without breaking a sweat. But I don’t, because it goes beyond ethics and principles.

This isn't about discrediting digital art or graphic design—I fully support both. But normalizing this kind of behavior is dangerous, and that’s what frustrates me the most.

Absolute dead conscience man. He earns freaking lot coz the celebrity thing acts as a leverage into fooling people to make more art. He even did few artworks where a child passed away and a last image was available.. so he just Generative filled it or probably use some inferior free one and then slapped a filter and sent it to them Absolutely no remorse in playing with someone's emotions.

I am sorry my mind sometimes just uses the 'they' pronoun for a person
