    Yup, Monet and Picasso are the biggest shows of this

    Monet and the whole impressionism movement is so unique and captures human nature in such a beautifully unique way

    the best thing you can do to appreciate art is to respect it. Assume the artist succeeded at what he was trying to do, and then consider everything about it from your POV. You don’t have to look at art competitively

    the artists who make a major impact and jumpstart new movements aren't derivative

    they synthesize a bunch of different influences and show reality in a new way

    Fair point, I wasn’t necessarily talking about game changers but moreso generally speaking about the art world as a whole. Nothing wrong with starting off by deriving your work from other influences as you’ll eventually naturally find new ways of handling certain aspects of your work. Those roots will always be there tho, they were arguably there with Picasso even in his inspiration from African and Aegean sculpture

    Absolutely. I love just how aware he was of the subjective human condition and how we process the immediate moment in a fleeting way

    Major in architecture at a good school

    Honestly majoring in architecture makes better artists than majoring in fine arts

    honestly for me it was finding common objects, people places and scenes that I liked and imagining what I could add to them or how they could look different.
    Start out with changing how fruits look, or how simple rooms look. Play with color, lighting, and scenery
    put a living room set in the middle of the forest if ya feel
    just do what you’d like & you’ll make some of the coolest pieces I promise you that
    beauty is in the eye of the beholder !!

    KTT has absolutely disparaged artistic a***ysis by calling any sort of statement about the work that isn’t explicitly made clear by the artist as “reaching”

    Low key loved when people would reach in those genius lyric annotations lol would help me see different perspectives

    Honestly majoring in architecture makes better artists than majoring in fine arts

    I'm like only half-kidding. Fine Arts is a fine field to study in, but it really just teaches you how to... do the fine arts. Architecture hones you on the actual design philosophy behind your creations, and allows you a lot more freedom in figuring out your vision.

    Lowkey, I might go for an Architecture degree down the line if I get a good amount of money lol.

    Most art is to some degree derivative. There’s nothing wrong with it, it’s the nature of inspiration. I knew plenty of kids in art school that were a little too similar in technique and style to their favorite artists, be it Rothko, Schiele, Cezanne, Matisse, Gauguin, or Basquiat. I certainly was guilty of this. There was this one kid who was a freshman on my last year that got really popular in the community, who basically painted Frida Kahlo style paintings except in each of the self portraits he did he’d be twerking in it. I think he’s developed his own take on the style since then, but all artists to some degree have their roots in inspiration from other artists

    an art student doesn't necessarily know what's good and what isn't

    it really is a matter of if you think it's good and it isn't a carbon copy of something else then it's good

    in this case they're just biting though lol

    Yeah. You gotta remember a lot of those elite art critics and connoisseurs are often times full of s***.

  • Dec 22, 2021

    just gotta interact with visual arts more, start going to more art shows, look at art on Tumblr or Pinterest, and of course get urself involved of the process of creating visual art

    My first semester was in architecture. We learned so much about technique in those 4 months, all kinds of markmaking using brushes, charcoal, graphite, pencils, ink, etc... I fell in love with art and transferred to the fine arts program. What we learned in that one semester of architecture is more than I learned in all of my fine arts schooling. One drawing professor was great, the rest weren't too great. My painting studios were the most disappointing. 2-3 projects a year. Biased professors who had a "type" of painting they approved of moreso than others. It's a different type of school, not really the rigorous atelier type of program I had in mind. From what I saw of my old architecture classmates they went on to do some great things. It's a good move going to school for architecture ask me, so long you don't break the bank with those tuition costs

    can confirm this: being an art major in college killed my dreams lowkey lmao
    Every art professor I had was super pretentious and critical
    Architectural classes were tons of fun however & I really enjoyed the few courses I took for this major
