Re: Artists in Accy?

[quote=lettie;437689][quote=blazey;437685]The thread isnt called LOOK AT MY ART, its for everyone to post their art. Noticeably the people who HAVE criticised rudely havent got anything of their own to show for.

Actually, examples of Garinda and Acrylic Bob's art are posted in some old threads, I have to say that they are, in my opinion, brilliant..
Then why didnt they just link them like sam instead of having a go at me? The thread was to show art work, not drag people down for it. It astounds me how shallow and rude you people are.

I can scribble with crayons. Does that qualify? I do some great side to side lines in lots of colours.

I think patrick heron may have had some crayon drawings. I cant remember though. There is an artist who does things like that because theres a girl at college who was copying one for her coursework.

I don't think that there is anything rude or shallow about my post. It is extremely rude of you to make sweeping generalisations like that. I shall no longer participate in this thread

Well, that looks like criticism to me. And as, in my view, the worth of any piece of art includes the thinking that went into it, then I would say that A-B's opinions constitute criticism, too. It seems to me that you regard any criticism of your work as "rude" and "horrible" and you just want to hear people say nice things about it. As I said, the real world just doesn't work that way, but I suppose you'll learn...

Seen as it isnt even drawing I assumed that there is no evidence of drawing skills lol. There isnt meant to be.

Whether it's drawing or not, you yourself admit there is an (admittedly unintentional) link with his work, so I would say Garinda's criticism is well-founded.

I wouldnt say it was a criticism though as its MEANT to be linked to artists. The fact that is the person who influenced my chosen artists is if anything brilliant as it means I was able to see my chosen artists work and see what inspired them and put it into my own.

The fact that she recognised the style was if anything a great pleasure

Re: Artists in Accy?

Can we please clarify if you actually chose the artists and then based your style on their work, or created a few things and then decided whose work it seemed to look like.

You seem to have said both in this thread and that is clearly impossible.

I was talking to my daughter's art teacher yesterday and he said that it isn't only the final product which they judge, but also the road the student took to get there and evidence of the signposts along the way.

If I could be bothered to look for it somewhere on this forum Garinda said something along the lines of 'art provokes debate'.

So on that basis Blazey, your art has provoked debate therefore it is definitely art.
