The original post reminds me of a similar post from an undesirable person a while ago..it's too similar.
Anyway.
Quote - As you can fill one large bookshelf with all the memorable works created by the most talented (not experienced) artists of our times.
THAT is one of the most arrogant, crass and ignorant things I've heard on art in a long time.
it is YOUR opinion.
Art is "good" as long as the person viewing it likes it. Doesn'tmatter if it was made on a PC or with bits of shell on sand. Only the viewer can say if, to him, i'ts truly memorable and important.
And YOU certainly have not seen much of the world's art, it's simply impossible. How many wonders have you never seen because the artist never shows, them? Or carves them in wood in some backwater etc?
As we get older, wee get more critical, that maybe your problem. I can't stand much from Hollywood now, lol, too smooth, polished and utterly non-human (real people have scars, bad teeth etc and they don't pose for perfect shots on perfect film).
Originally, art here blew me away because it was NEW. you are missing that important point.
Your "digital art virginity" has passed away so, yer more cynical...natural, but foolish not to recognize it ;)
I still see fantastic work here. But my standard of what's "amazing" has gone up.
So stop being Mr Scrooge and enjoy, before yer weighed down with the chains of dispepsia, grumpiness, arrogance and hubris.
In othe words, stop being an old fart and ENJOY life and art while ye can! :tt2:
