To me there is a thing called the artists eye the ability to break down a thing into line and shape. How much that is refined is the real techinical side. I really enjoy technical pictures a lot. I like imagination a lot in work too. But an example is two of my favorite artists are Buegel and Durer. Both had some very bizzare imaginative pictures but the ones I am drawn most to are the more normal renders. For Bruegel it is the Hunters in the Snow and for durer it is his Rinoceros and rabbit. I presonally am not a big fan of poser art because I look at it and the people have no souls to me. I can look at a simpler person model that someone built up and the soul is still there. It is a weird thing. I think it has to do with what is the person thinking when they are making the picture and the model particularly. If you don't make your own models then you have someone else deciding your reality for you. I enjoy imagination and flights of fancy like most people.

I cheated on my metaphysics exam by looking into the soul of the
