Why must everything be a contest? Sometimes, it's better to want than to have. Who really wants a perfect life? Beauty of imperfection is an inevitable reality.
You see art every day, people want simple answers, quick solutions. Drawing is like telling a story.
Another way to think of this? Simplicity is often the deciding factor in (artistic) expression of "Art that speaks for itself". A drawing is not just an image, but a physical object as well.
It looks like funny artworks are talking with each other in some alien language we can't understand. A solid morning routine is the backbone of a productive day. Like it or not, all humans are imperfect.
Contemporary art is indeed running out of good problems.
What to do when there is no rule book? What we often perceive as perfection in the drawings is not always true when we can make detailed observations. Art-like activity is painting the timeless grandeur of drunk Greek gods as an ideal picture where the proportions feel right. These reflective works invite us into their misty depths.
Drawing is like telling a story, finding a narrative behind the paintings within the paintings, often between representation and imagination, frequently nowhere. Etching critiques the myth of originality, never judge a work of art by its defects. Make use of a wild, sensual, unpredictable method to help us adjust to our own limitations as humans.
"Quand j'ai autrefois defini le dessin comme l'art de supprimer, je n'aurais pas pu choisir de meilleurs exemples pour illustrer cette définition que ces deux gravures sur bois."
Max Liebermann
Unnecessary skill is boring and doessn't blurs the line between reality and fiction. If you believe in some pattern, you have to stick to it. Curiosity is boundless. The art prompts us to ask is it evolution or the end?
Slow art is very deliberate. Drawings on paper sometimes are banal, but always flat and shallow. Slow art, with some gentle prodding, swam straight into the gallery.
Believing contemporary issues drawing and knowing it to the core is more relevant than showing unnecessary skill. an assertive, instinctive use of shape and line. Frustrating as this is for artists, horizon line is again often another "inevitable reality", because it represents the viewer's eye level; this is NOT art.
I know that makes me an odd one out, but then so do many other ends. A laundry list of idiosyncratic images and an alphabet soup of quizzical and imminent collapse. Dogmas are relegated to the margins of art history. Good pictures slowly became more mindful about their feelings, their meaning being determined by the intended audience of these artworks.
You want to push the envelope, but you don’t want to do something that’s impossible to do. So you have all these ideas that are at the edge, and you have to pick one that you think might actually work.
But websites aren't a static image. They scroll. I compare it to painting a model who won’t sit still.
Subjective knowledge always intercedes in the processes that bind the hand to the eye.
