been in an unsatisfactory place with my art for a bit, so i wanted to share some pics of pieces that didnt go too well or that im not satisfied with
this one is cyndi lauper at the grammies (1984? i think?)
Tumblr media
heres the reference:
Tumblr media
i got the pose a little wrong, but what made me give up on the piece was the sheer tininess of her head in my drawing
i dont like to do underdrawings because i feel like i lose freeness and fluidity in my art, but it often results in proportional mistakes like this where her body is ginormous
anyway, the failure drove me to try and find a happy medium where i can have fun and still make art im proud of
im always growing and fucking up and growing, cuz thats the magic of art!
should i post more of these? (im going to regardless)

Apparently when my younger brother was just born my mom found him napping with his blanket fully covering him, and she pulled back the sheet (worried he couldn't breathe or something) to find him fully awake staring at her. It scared the shit out of her and she still talks about it to this day lmao

Here your dreams are sweet, and tomorrow brings them true.
Here is the place where I love you.
@ofthegreekgods and I were talking about grandparents everlark, and we came around to "what if they had a little granddaughter with brown skin and curly black hair" and that emotionally hit hard. Then we talked about Katniss learning to braid her hair. Then we talked about the sentiment of maybe this time I get to protect you. So yeah, you get this.

the rise of AI art isn't surprising to us. for our entire lives, the attitude towards our skills has always been - that's not a real thing. it has been consistently, repeatedly devalued.
people treat art - all forms of it - as if it could exist by accident, by rote. they don't understand how much art is in the world. someone designed your home. someone designed the sign inside of your local grocery store. when you quote a character or line from something in media, that's a line a real person wrote.
"i could do that." sure, but you didn't. there's this joke where a plumber comes over to a house and twists a single knob. charges the guy 10k. the guy, furious, asks how the hell the bill is so high. the plumber says - "turning the knob was a dollar. the knowledge is the rest of the money."
the trouble is that nobody believes artists have knowledge. that we actively study. that we work hard, beyond doing our scales and occasionally writing a poem. the trouble is that unless you are already framed in a museum or have a book on a shelf or some kind of product, you aren't really an artist. hell, because of where i post my work, i'll never be considered a poet.
the thing that makes you an artist is choice. the thing that makes all art is choice. AI art is the fetid belief that art is instead an equation. that it must answer a specific question. Even with machine learning, AI cannot make a choice the way we can - because the choices we make have always been personal, complicated. our skills cannot be confined to "prompt and execution." what we are "solving" isn't just a system of numbers - it is how we process our entire existence. it isn't just "2 and 2 is 4", it's staring hard at the numbers and making the four into an alligator. it's rearranging the letters to say ow and it is the ugly drawing we make in the margin.
at some point, you will be able to write something by feeding my work into a machine. it will be perfectly legible and even might sound like me. but a machine doesn't understand why i do these things. it can be taught preferences, habits, statistical probability. it doesn't know why certain vowels sound good to me. it doesn't know the private rules i keep. it doesn't know how to keep evolving.
"but i want something to exist that doesn't exist yet." great. i'm glad you feel creative. go ahead and pay a fucking artist for it.
this is all saying something we all already knew. the sad fucking truth: we have to die to remind you. only when we're gone do we suddenly finally fucking mean something to you. artists are not replicable. we each genuinely have a skill, talent, and process that makes us unique. and there's actual quiet power in everything we do.
