THE FUCK HAPPENED TO STANDARDS FOR QUALITY????

Journals / Personal

Sorry to do this, seeing as my past journal entries have only been rants, but this is necessary, if you don't like it, I REALLY don't care.

Every day I get on here, the quality of the pieces done by individuals gets worse and worse... and Those who create Terrible pieces seem to be getting the most recognition for their.... Pieces....

Prime Examples: [link] (over 500 Favorites??? THIS IS TERRIBLE!)

This has Got to stop!

People! this is a Website for Art
(now mind you Art is Subjective, in the eye of the beholder, etc. Etc.)

I guess anyone who can pick up a pencil and draw a line is considered an Artist....

It's a Complete Shame...

It's moments like this that have caused me to stop drawing as much as I used to....

People who actually have Quality pieces are getting either completely ignored, or giving up on art completely because pieces like above said are getting undeserved recognition.

~Usuratonkachi18 May 5, 2013

ok i really had so say this because i saw your comment on that yoshi picture that was really horribly drawn but somehow got over 500 favs... >_> i completely agree...great artists are not appriciated anymore it's people like that, that make a living off their art while people like you and me struggle everyday to even get over 100 favs on our amazing art :\ this world is full of shit and great artists are stuck in the middle of it while shit artists are out there making millions...one day my friend...one day. also your art is freaking amazing ._. im actually really jealous xD

~silversunned May 5, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

No need to be Jealous my dear! <3 It's years worth of Practice and such to get where I'm at... well ok it's only been 2 years, but hey, practice makes perfect!

You have great concepts for pieces, it seems however that you are stuck in only One style, which, Don't get me wrong, it's always ok to stay with something you are comfortable doing, but every once in awhile, it's best to break out of the comfort Shell and actually attempt something different!

I've done pieces in all forms of styles, I even have Anime/Manga Pieces I've done, I've learned more from expanding my horizons then I ever did when I was just attempting "Realism", I really do appreciate the input, and the fact that you can recognize that there is a difference between art and just.... That nonsense that somehow got popular.... and that you can also recognize the difference between being nice to someone and when someone just needs a bitch slap in the face and told to "Just Stop now....." Humans however never seem to learn from their mistakes so they continue in Ruts, and Art is No exception.

If there is one thing I have learned in the Art world... it's that people are creatures of Habit, if they know it, they will continue to stick with it, Art may be Subjective, but there is only so many different variations of your own style you can do before people just grow tired of the same-old Same-old. The Dear individual who thought themselves clever in the making of the Yoshi piece... has an ENTIRE gallery of that shit... It's a shame... they will never learn what it's like to have Actual artistic ability because they aren't willing to relearn art.

Sorry for the story of a response... but there is always so much to be said about art! I'll end it here with a "Thank You for Understanding and Recognizing the issue here!" and a "I appreciate the supported Notion!"

Gracias for the fav! Your artwork is amazing!

~silversunned May 5, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

Thank you!

~Coolioer Apr 30, 2013

Send one to all your friends who you think deserve a hug (which, hopefully includes the person who sent it to you)!!

You might send it to your enemies as well!
It'll really make them stop and think!!!

If you don't receive this back, nobody likes you, and they wish you'd stop bugging them!

If you receive this back 1 time, open up! Find more friends, enemies, or enemies pretending to be friends

If you receive this back 2 times, you're off to a good start! (Unless you sent it to yourself! That's cheating!)

If you receive this back 3 times, you're a good friend.

If you receive this back 4 times, you're truly loved as a friend!!
