The longer we're here, the closer we get to being homeless. I've been extremely depressed and unable to create anything for the past few weeks because of this constant threat to my and my cats well being.
Things started to look up, so I was able to paint a few new things in the last couple of days. Now, we're being told to wait ANOTHER week for a job we've been waiting almost two for already, and we are honestly grasping at nothing. He has applied to almost every place in this small town.
I just put up a few new things.
Please, think of supporting me at this time.
Keith Kogane! Sooo, these studies are so much fun to do, I will be doing other characters from different shows, and even more of Voltron. Just messing around with the color schemes to see how the feeling translates or differentiates.
Screaming to the void? Perhaps.
But I’m having art feelings.
The art I want to create is scoffed at, and called pretentious. I don’t fit into the world of internet art. I don’t like calling the imaginary people I paint “OC”s, and I don’t like buying into the fandomisation of creativity. My angry art isn’t “vent art”, all art is vent art to me. It’s the way I express my strong feelings.
But, I am not rich enough to fit into the other world of conceptual art, which I am more comfortable in. It’s becoming a rich kids, money laundering club. And this makes it looked down upon in progressive circles.
So, I’m stuck.
I don’t want to create for the sake of aesthetic. I want to create because I have something to say. My art, yes, is pretentious. But it means something to me. And I feel like the art I love is being phased out. The art I love is purely for older filthy rich people to not understand.
And I don’t have the space or money or energy to keep trying anymore
I feel we’re in a post creative world and I don’t know what to do about it.
If you read this, stranger, try finding art that makes you uncomfortable. Risky art. Bold art. Political art.
I’m gonna keep creating for now because, well, I don’t know how to cope with things in any other way
