About your answer to one of the questions on the computer se
Question Posted Sunday March 6 2005, 3:43 pm
You replied to someone's question about computer art, and said how digital drawing is cheating and that you should use paper and pencil.
Digital art is NOT cheating. It is as difficult, and may be even more difficult than using traditional mediums. You obviously know NOTHING about what kinds of art there are. Maybe you just don't know how to do it.
Despise it if you want, but ALOT of great artists use digital mediums, and now that technology is taking over, it will be one of the more commonly used. Have you ever taken a look at deviantart? A great majority of the most talented artists on the site use digital mediums, and whether or not it's because they don't have something to be able to scan their paints or sketches, it still shows that they have alot of talent, and you need talent and patience especially if you're only using a mouse.
So you know NOTHING about art, and don't act as if you do.
And by the way, your sarcasm is lame. D< It's like trying to be sarcastic and crude, but failing and only looking obnoxious.

Also, normally, I would delete or "reject" this type of stupid messeges, but this would be fun, since I am limiting myself from what I can use... and stil beat you, anonymous person.
Digital art is what I consider as cheating art, for the fact that anyone is able to do it. But art is something you can't just see, and understand immediately. For example, Jackson Pollock's "Number 1 1950" shows you at first what normal idiots (like you) would think as "crap" However, if you look deep into the art, it shows you strokes and strokes and strokes, all differnt, and has a strong feeling and violence in them. In addition to seeing what's there on the canvas, it allows you to imagine the actual creation of the piece, like him(Jackson Pollock) standing there, violently splattering paint all over it. It's called "abstract expressionism". This is one of the greatest thing in modern art, that you will never see, in digital art. Hence, I call it cheating. I don't like the art much. It's only good to entertain, those who watches films and whatnot. Jackson Pollock shows in his paintings, an abstract expression of a physical, emotional act. In a way, the painting stands in as a performance piece. It's the greatest thing you'll ever see, if YOU yourself even know what true art is..
"You obviously know NOTHING about what kinds of art there are. Maybe you just don't know how to do it."
I am going to say the exact same thing back to you, you anonymous asshole. At least be brave enough to leave your name.
and you said....
"ALOT of great artists use digital mediums, and now that technology is taking over, it will be one of the more commonly used. Have you ever taken a look at deviantart?

well, to things to say to you...
1) If so many, name 100 artists, using "digital mediums" and "technology" that you're talking about. And if you know so much, EXPLAIN the technology they use, specifically.
2) VAN GOGH and Piccasso can still kick those guy's ass together. Van Gogh had cut his own ear for art. Can those "a lot of great artist" do that, to make THEIR art perfect? I think not. No one can be so devoted to art, as Van Gogh.
NEVER send me a stupid messege EVER about art. YOU'RE the one who knows NOTHING of art.
"And by the way, your sarcasm is lame. D< It's like trying to be sarcastic and crude, but failing and only looking obnoxious."
Kindda like you. Except I'm more honest, and much more intellegent than you. Also, what the hell is "D<"? Is that you're Own little picture you drew with your "digital mediums" and what not? Great art. I'm SURE (look! Sarcasm) that would be worth a hundred dollars...
I'd love to remind how you said
"So you know NOTHING about art, and don't act as if you do."
Hahahaha, Uh... I WILL at like I know art, for the fact that I know art. MORE THAN YOU. Don't be so stupid enough to give me another messege, telling me how much more "digital technology" is better. Contemporary art rules. Jackson Pollock, Van Gogh, Piccasso, and hundreds of other great artist, you should research about. Too bad you didn't know enough about me, to know that I KNOW MORE ART THAN YOU. So... FUCK OFF.

P.S. I'm thanking Momo, for letting me have her books, instead of buying all those art-minor people's book. Thanks!
P.P.S. THIS IS A WARNING FOR EVERYONE to NEVER give me a messege, about art. [ SAMzasis's advice column | Ask SAMzasis A Question ]
