Your Friends And Art Contemporary
Are you just being nice when you tell a friend that his or her artwork looks good? And are your friends just humoring you when they tell you that your work is cool?
It’s about psychology. Take it from me; an awful artist whose friends used to feed me rubbish constantly after I painted another self-portrait that looked like a sun-dried tomato, the answer is in the initial reaction. It’s the way it’s said.
I used to struggle with charcoal for hours on end whilst trying to etch my imagination onto a 36″ x 48″ blank canvas and end up with a hilarious final product. Why was it hilarious? Because my friends used to walk into my dorm room and fall over themselves in rip-roaring fits of uncontrollable laughter! Don’t get me wrong, I had and have some great friends, and I have never aspired to be the next art contemporary hero because, quite simply, I’ve never been any good at it. I had to channel talents in other directions, to put it bluntly. But it’s always a telltale sign that a work of art is not the best if it gets laughed hysterically at upon first sight!
Just as obvious as laughing, a long pause can say it all. If it takes more than two seconds between seeing an art contemporary piece and saying, “Yeah, that’s really cool,” then the artwork in question probably stinks. Whether it’s yours or your friends, somebody is going to have to learn to lie a bit better because feelings are going to get shot down!
Art contemporary is for everybody, and any form of self-expression in the current day is art contemporary. However, some things just don’t make the grade on any level and nobody can really dispute that, can they? It isn’t a problem, my art was like that! Just remember that an artist shouldn’t set out to please anybody with his or her work if it is true art contemporary, because it is all about what is inside the artist’s mind. I think that producing work for someone else to buy takes away from the quality of the art, but maybe that’s just me! All artists need to make a living, right?
