Do you ever worry about young artists not getting enough of a traditional education now that digital art is so popular? Like do you think it's bad that kids now might conceivably never use oil paints or develop a solid base of traditional skills?

No.

“Traditional” = “Only kids who can afford to buy all this shit are allowed to be artists.”

[fullten-deactivated20240430]

I don’t think people get art. I feel like people think art is something created by a tortured soul and you have to go out of your way to go to an art gallery and you have some kind of emotional response and that’s art.

But that’s bullshit

You walk into a grocery store and you’re surrounded by art. Who do you think designs the packages? Fucking artists. Who do you think designed your house? Your bedsheets? Your car? Artists.

Art is a necessity. It’s everywhere, we wear it, we talk about it, we live in it. It’s everywhere. Every color, negative space, font, placement, material, you come into contact with an artist had a hand in that. TV, movies, music, graphics, It’s everywhere, it’s everything

[thesnadger]

When I was in school, one of my art teachers used to say “this world needs more creators. There’s more than enough destroyers in the world today.”

Just a reminder, if you create anything–art, writing, food, machines, ideas, equations, knits, tools, gardens–the world needs you.

This makes me happy.

Happy creating, everyone

“So when you talk about Standing Rock, please begin by acknowledging that this pipeline was redirected from an area where it was most likely to impact white people. And please remind people that our people are struggling to survive the violence of colonization on many fronts, and that people shouldn’t simply engage with or retweet such stories when they see a concrete connection to their own issues — or a jumping off point to discuss their own issues. Our friends, allies and accomplices should be fighting alongside us because they value our humanity and right to live, in addition to whatever else they believe in.”

[two tweets by scare-acotta warrior (@suntzufuntzu) that read: Reminder that DAPL was re-routed through Standing Rock because Bismarck’s residents feared it would poison their drinking water. 

The Sioux are literally being forced at gunpoint to accept ecological risks that North Dakota’s white residents refused.]
