if my dick could shoot fire, it would burn your friggin face off for saying stupid shit on this website to people. i'm an artist with a degree in art. i say he knows what he is doing. what are your credentials buckley?

art is subjective... granted the way the person commented might not have been cool.... but i know a lot of people with degrees who suck huge donkey balls.

one of my favorite artists never had an art class (well minus elementary school).... but he is extremely gifted....

you can learn the technicalities of drawing or painting... how to mix paint...where a shadow belongs in relation to your light source, etc etc... but subject matter, overall composition, the movement of your brushstrokes, the emotion that a piece evokes, those are things you really cant learn.... those are pieces of the puzzle you either have or dont have.

do i like the work here? its alright...nothing that really grabbed my attention (tho i kinda liked the sketch of the dude choking the chick)....but i have a BA and a MA and taught art for a while... those are my credentials... does it make my OPINION anymore credible... no not really....

because if u didnt learn in your little classes that art is about a relationship with the artist and the viewer and that that relationship is different for each viewer...that every person gets something different out of a work...that something that someone loves someone else will hate...that ART IS SUBJECTIVE...than really u learned nothing at all.
