“humanity, in it’s own way, is a tragic comedy”

[@EnderSparkle]

What's the difference between a tragic comedy and a comedic tragedy?

[@KaylieghHereford]

@@EnderSparkle I think their the same!

[@-Chaos_Potato-]

@@EnderSparkle I think the first one was meant to be a comedy but ended up being tragic, meanwhile the other was supposed to be tragic but others just found it funny.

[@mickko9875]

@@EnderSparkle the difference is that there is no such thing as a comic tragedy, only a tragicomedy.

The art community when they see something unique: 😱😱😱👹👹👹👹

[@Ermakshually]

Wdym a lot of unique art still exists

[@wispangelic]

​@@Ermakshually with much scrutiny and insult for being so

[@Ermakshually]

@ well yeah but that’s to be expected atleast you can turn off comments

[@wispangelic]

@Ermakshually but artists consuming that unique pieces are hated leads them to decrease in creativity. it won't just occur to their art, they will witness in other artist's art. its all an echo chamber.

[@Rylie-b6r]

That's pretty much the same with OCS. Unique concepts get ignored and not appreciated but if it's done and the character is portrayed correctly in a short film or Animated show they get appreciated, which is depressing. Unique and OG concepts should be automatically appreciated, even if it's not portrayed correctly.

[@gjkdshgkjshjkgdfg]

i've been really considering quitting art tbf as self taught for abt 6 years. but i don't want art to disappear from the world. i WANT younger people to keep getting into art, and i hate it so much when older artists bully or constantly ignore them js because they're developing. LET them have art styles that haven't been seen before. i genuinely can't believe anybody who calls themselves creative then shits on ppl who divert from mainstream art because that is literally the foundation of creativity as a concept. taking one thing and making something anew.

[@Silly_fandoms]

It can be hard sometimes but don't quit it's not worth it

[@snail_boy-g1o]

I genuinely am starting to hate the art community, literally I’ve seen people get harassed, doxxed , literally everything for having a unique style. AI is now glorified in media and people are accepting it in art and other medias and its slowly killing me, all my life I’ve wanted to make art that inspire s people to do the same, but AI is taking that away from me and i feel like i cannot pursue art in my future because i know i cannot making a living from it anymore.

[@fruit_b4t]

that last part is sadly true.

[@WhyAreyouhere-o8p]

I hate AI art makes me sad

[@Denizovichhh]

this is why i don't post/show my art on internet

[@P-lyer]

thats why im not in the art community

[@Rylie-b6r]

That's so real... I'll might stop posting my art on the internet bc of how ridiculous and stupid sounding people can be when giving an artist feedback- I am literally getting sick of the online art community as well.

[@TrizziEhgan]

Creativity is such a pretty powerful word for me, like why not many people use this word these days for all kinds of art? This video is extremely underrated.

[@scribblemeeps]

As an artist, it’s upsetting to see new artists online get bullied off platforms, we should help to encourage new artists and young artist to continue their pursuits . If we can lift each other up we can possibly give a chance to artists in the future.

[@9-ball_films]

Real, we need to lift them up and not pull them down, as a new and young artist like a year ago I didn’t get support but I still did it anyway even though I never posted art and kept to myself up until now but that doesn’t stop me from supporting new and young artists

[@spiteful_intervention]

I think that something that a lot of humans miss when considering art: is leaving the idea of "consumption". You don't need to be able to consume, to taste, and to see art as good in order for it to be.., art!! People see artists they don't like for subjective reasons that aren't attached to any morality to why it's supposed to be bad; and hate it. They bash it, they tell others that the art is terrible. We all seem to forget that art is simply something that our minds naturally create, as not everyone can be friends, not all art will be friendly to you. And part of why art is beautiful, is to appreciate that we're here.

[@Bleplebeian]

im an artist, and i struggle a lot with drawing, let alone pushing out art consistently. i especially struggle with stuff like detailed anatomy, so i generally stick to a more cartoon art style as to not burn myself out. i often feel like my art is worse than it used to be, since i used to draw in a more detailed anime-ish style. it feels like there's only one kind of art out there that is seen as ''good'' to a lot of people, espeically non-artists, and its the kind of art that i'm not only not good at but also the kind of art that i find incredibly tedious and boring. i feel like a failure of an artist especially since i used to get praised for being a ''talented young artist'' when i was a pre-teen.

[@Bleplebeian]

ive even once had a person look at my profile, that i drew, and said ''nah ai is better bro'' which. yeah, it was a stranger on discord, but you don't say that to an artist dude. jesus.

[@Disatergame]

I subconsciously draw in a kind of cartoon style lol😅

[@Silly_fandoms]

It's not getting worse everything's going to be OK maybe start trying out different mediums? that helped me alot!

[@Wonderfulpuggs]

[@boscorner]

I have never taken part in big art communities or even really art social media . I have no regrets. Posting art on social media turns to making art for social media. Which leads to forgetting how drawing used to make you feel. Having a small group of art pals is the way.

[@IchangedmynameagainUwU]

it’s sad i saw a tiktok with a beautiful and unique art style and the comments were just “oh! that’s not…” or “oh!” like just scroll it’s so easy your boosting a video by commenting even if it’s hate if you hate an art style don’t waste 10 seconds of your time commenting scroll it so easy

[@pink3t224]

I blame social media algorithms for this. Only the most popular and trendy stuff go viral, this enables artists to pump out the same exact style and genre to get views. Genuine artwork does get a fraction of the recognition as the previous. So much that no one even knows that this creative works even exist.

[@lillypatchell4118]

I've been an artist for almost a decade and I can't even begin to say how many people have told me to stay away from being an artist as a job and it breaks my heart every time hearing how others just don't do art anymore because of what people have said about their art to tear them down when they harvest the best ideas for art no matter what kind of art it is drawing, music, writing etc and to hear they will never one day achieve their dream of having a job were thay can express and make people happy with their art I try to encourage artists as much as possible no matter what it looks like I KNOW they poured their heart and soul into it and bust their ass to improve I just hate to see such creative people not able to achieve their goals just because of stupid corporations wanting to gain more and more money because that's all they care about is how much damn money they can make when they can show such beautiful art and putting so much effort into it...and I just wanna say to all artists your art is absolutely beautiful because of how much heart and soul you put into your work and when it seems like you aren't improving well you art you may not see it but you are and never forget that and it's completely alright to make mistakes with your art after all our mistakes help us improve

[@therewasnomino]

a little rant but im always trying to make my artstyle more "unique" so that ill gain more attention but in the end i never like the results nor the process 💔

[@ARStudios2000]

I understand that feeling, but I still enjoyed the process of experimenting and trying things out. Even when the end result wasn't what I was looking for, just trying out new tools, tricks, and tips is an enjoyable experience I would never throw away.

[@Rai-Toozy]

Currently i haven't drawn in almost a month. Nobody will accept you as an artist if you don't know perfect anatomy and have a cartoon art style and it sucks.

[@carlthebigman]

I encourage you to draw again, even if it is imperfect.

[@KaylieghHereford]

Just like Carl, I'm here to encourage you to draw again!! You don't even have to post it! You can just do it for fun! Draw for YOU! Not for the people who don't appreciate it!! Some of my favorite drawings are just little doodles!! Don't let people discourage you from doing something YOU love!

[@HrvatskiHistory]

It may be a trend and it’ll hopefully pass. I remember a time where cartoon artists ruled a few years ago and semi realism was criticized for any small mistake. Or maybe it was an experience with the particular fandom I was in

[@VeerYDMS]

Fight against inauthenticity, ignore the haters and if they show up with their silly opinions, remind them "No one asked". I've never seen any of your videos, but please don't quit your passion, quit large toxic communities. It takes time to find them, but they do exist. Many people within my circles have given up on major social media as a whole and are thankful they've done so.

[@Monokitsune]

“When did creativity become a burden on society?” We as humans are always trying to justify ourselves. To look like we have our shit together. It’s why we’re obsessed with fame, fortune, status, career. Even having the right opinion or politics. This is especially prominent in our time. Some see the difficulties that come with being an artist (and there are difficulties), and think they have it better.

[@realnagisafan01]

one thing im proud of about myself is that i have never hated on a beginner artist for their artworks looking "bad". ive witnessed the croaket drama unfold, and i am so glad i havent taken part on the mockery. and i hold onto this principle of never making fun of artists, especially not beginners

[@ClownCatastrophe]

the best way i have found to actually enjoy the art community again after years of avoidance has been just blocking and moving on. if they are being rude to artists? blocked. if they are posting things that i think is strange? blocked, and depending on the subject matter possibly reported. dont feel bad for trying to curate your art feeds to fit you! letting these people and all the drama seep into every aspect you see the community makes it just become extremely unpleasant to engage in what you had liked doing for the community to begin with. find artists who have fun just drawing and sharing their stories and characters! find other smaller artists on the same skill as you and bam! possible mootie who is also just there to appreciate the art and their interests!! sometimes it takes a bit more effort than just letting it be all that you see, but in the end it is so much more worth it. they thrive off of being upset or upsetting others, deprive them of the luxury. ignore them, because if they are just there to be rude and hateful, they are not worth your time. [ edit : fixed typo from "reposted" to "reported" ]

[@ClownCatastrophe]

this is not to say you shouldn't be knowledgeable of relevant art community news, but it is important to remember the art community isnt just ONE community of people. the people you see as the art community are not the same for other people. every sub-group is going to have their own ideals for how the art community should run or overall morals the community should hold but often fail to understand everyone has a different basis of what their community is!

[@artisticabomination7335]

I'm thankfully one of the self taught artists that encourage new artists and offer them tips and tricks I wish I knew when I was just starting out. Be constructive, don't tear them down. Instead your goal should be to see new artists fully surpass your skill level and reach new heights.

[@Rock-v4k]

I love the little wings on the side of your head! I’m a little new to your videos but so far I enjoy watching them!

[@veipurr]

FINALLY A GOOOD VIDEO!!! --CHEERS-! Well said!!! I agree with you. You really made a great conversation here. I am proud of you. sincerely, from a new fan

[@SleepyRulu]

how this good video

[@KycoolJiro]

So damn true. I was never good at art, but I really want to be good at it and don't have the experience to do so and next year I'm going to really learn hard, but when I post it I'm scared that people like my art.

[@Kaileighblue]

The internet in general id now one long chain of an eye for an eye mentality.

[@kami.UvU.]

What you said is true, still I want to say that it’s not a “nowadays” thing. The creativity hating, the struggles of being an artist, it’s always have been there, from the ancient Egypt till now. (It wasn’t even considered a real job for many years) And it’s not only about art, it’s literally about everything. If you disagree with a popular statement, you’re gonna be opposed. 1000 years ago if you were against slavery you would be fought, today if you support racism you’re gonna be fought, and if you think long enough, these examples are gonna be countless. I don’t think there’ll be total toleration anytime, only the things people hate will shift by time passing. It’s not only the art community that is like that. But all of this shouldn’t make you feel defeated or devastated, I think people should be more optimistic, because this world is a pretty shitty place, and if we can’t find happiness in it then it’s gonna destroy us. So stay strong and don’t let all this stupid things be the ones driving you. You’re the one who will appreciate your own works the most, and you should be the one who decides if you want to quit or not, and not some stupid drama online

[@coldfissionclancy235]

Truer words have never been spoken about art. And yes, I was drawing on my iPad through the entirety of the video.

Creativity is something that should be appreciated, not criticized for. It's boring when everything is the same thing. : Disappointing to see that peopleignoring Originality.

[@literaltrash5189]

I disagree to an extent. Everyone needs criticism regradless of how creative their idea is. Criticism can be a great tool for improvement, it just depends on whether that criticism is constructive or destructive.

[@Rylie-b6r]

@@literaltrash5189 often it is destructive nowadays on the internet, that's why I said ' not criticized for ' first of all, I did not mention anything about Constructive criticism, and completely agree for the most part. Let's be fr you are gonna throw off my arguement- not to be disrespectful tho! Let's just leave it at that. Sorry if that part was confusing to you, that was the best way I can describe it.

[@Rylie-b6r]

Also, do you not even know what Criticized means?? I used the first definition, not the second one about the le ' constructive criticism. '

[@BlueMoonFoxi]

just keep doing what youre doing If you feel unsafe posting, keep it to yourself But by all means, keep living your passion

[@juliantotriwijaya9208]

She has a point, not so much about the modern art though, the main reason most people criticize modern art because it's not great art and a museum is a place for great art. There was this great quote but I can't find it, but it goes something along this line- "A great painted art balances between beauty, effort, and *it also balances between being subjective and objective meaning.* If the art represent reality too much or explained too much by the artist, to the point the audience have no room for interpertation, then that art is too objective/has no meaning. But if the art is too vague in appearance(like bad modern art) that it end up leaving the audience confused and up to their multiple interpertations, then it is too subjective/has no direction", something like that. Great art should be able to explain *itself* visually and with a title while still giving enough balance for the audience to interact themself. Does art that is not great means it is bad art? *Heavens no!!* Your art is still good even if it's not great, it's not the same /equal, know the word distiction, this is why mothers encourage their children by saying their crude art looks good and hang it on the fridge, she knows in no way does it belong in a museum or worth an expensive price but regardless it has value brcause of your effort, so go, keep drawing! The only way art can be truelly bad is if your art endanger others or encourage others to do bad things. But anyway other than that, I agree, as artist we need to build each other up, encourage each other so that maybe one day some of us can strike that balance to be actually *qualified* to enter meseum/be great art in a place specifically built for the purpose of displaying great art. Also yeah, it is advised to stay away from drama like twitter for your metal sake.

[@spoodigus]

This video is pretty inspiring for me. I will keep fighting for my art and other people’s art. Also, I love your voice!

[@Liadowexists]

It's sad, we can be different if it doesn't fit the satus quoe. To anyone who is getting shitted on for their artstyle, please please don't give up. Poeple can be assholes but what makes you happy is more important then some random person with far less taste. Even if your art seems bad, it isn't there'll be Poeple that'll eat it up trust

[@DITZEE]

2:22 I feel like im being called out more and more frequently in these art commentary videos

[@JAYZ-47465]

Just thinking about the creative industry literally today is making me and everyone feel more depressed. I now worry about my future even more because I always wanted to be in the creative industry, especially animation, when I was younger - even though I always said to the older people who asked me that I wanted to be a doctor. I see AI everywhere flooding the creative spaces and even anything not related to art. I get so pissed because I don’t know if I’ll even be super happy and content in my future. I don’t even know if everyone responsible for the many creative, and actually soulful and pure effort entertainment that is shown to us through TV or movies, is paid well to make their passion actually be useful to them, to make them survive. I hate to admit it, but I’m really starting to hate the looming presence that I will be seen as useless to my own family, who has so many talents and skills actually making them survive, and here I am. Also is it just me or has 2022 just been the start of art community drama for me? It’s like it appeared outta nowhere.

[@Radientzone345]

Excellent video. I would like to recommend a channel called “Design Theory” as he also talked about why so society hate creatives. “Why Society Hates Creative People (and what to do about it)”. Overall we have to have on the same level as construction as it’s building up. Create and its cultivate culture. I will say Art is one of the cornerstones of humanity next to agriculture and community. But as time continues it , society failing, everything else falls. Anyway, continue with your art and excellent video!

[@Jadethevillainusartist]

As an artist myself it is sad to see the community cave into itself, and people treat us who express ourselves into what we create like bags of dirt, for some could take months, or even years in finishing an art piece. I used to really want to post what I created when I was a bit younger, until the community became what it is now. Which now I noticed has been giving me a great anxiety to spread onto other apps because of AI training models, and people trying to dunk on me so they can feel better after making an artist feel bad after false allegations. It’s just so sad to me, and I hope the rest who read this could think the same.

[@henrymapleton]

Getting into ai generated content took someone else inspiring me to try it, same goes with drawing, creating ocs, pixel art, clay, painting miniatures, fan comics, web comics, fan fictions. Its never crossed my mind to make a profession out of these things, just that drive to do something, to pass time and cause doing these things makes me happy.

[@c-kingdodo]

i get your point on alot of it but the modern art thing, its less about "modern art" or anything like that the media has just shown us some stupid things like the banana on a wall, there is plenty of interesting modern art pieces and etc

[@carlthebigman]

Even then the banana on the wall kind of has meaning in itself I believe, something about how we see art I think. If not I think it should be appreciated for how funny it is.

[@paleoberd]

So true...

[@Silly_fandoms]

Rest assured that there are people that are slowly but surely bringing creativity back from the people at GLITCH to multiple ccs with amazing art and even better hearts, i hope for you guys to not worry because it can and will come back.

[@puppyrabbby]

Being an artist nowadays feels so demanding. I've seen artists get doxxed for their art style and beginner artists getting bullied instead of people actually providing constructive criticism or support. Honestly, I'm glad I stopped trying to be an artist. If you don't do something in a specific way at a specific time, the algorithm will hate you or your audience will. Being an artist is exhausting.

Most things you describe were always so throught history ... so, chill? or not. You do you. Creativity wil exist and blossom with or without you, as it always had

[@squingle.mcdingle]

“Look away" “We're grading art pieces as if we've had the merit to" “People pour their hearts and souls on art, only for it to become banalized“ I don't think you thought of these principles on any of the content you've made over... 'problematic artists'. Did you actually look away?

[@beetleparty]

"if you dont like it then scroll" isnt that censorship in a way too? if people are allowed to make whatever they want, people allowed to express whatever they want towards that piece. yeah, you shouldnt harass people over art, but people are allowed to express a negative opinion. if youre for "no censorship," then allow people to express negative opinions too about people's art, otherwise this a double standard. my main problem with the blackwashing btw is if you do the same to a black character and make them asian they call you racist, but they can blackwash your asian characters and theyre being "inclusive," and they always call asian characters "white." my issue isnt with imagining characters as a different race, my issue is with changing a character's race and using that to be on a moral high ground. its also because it really sucks seeing how people always talk about black inclusivity but never even touch on the subject of asians and representing us in media, and just spitting on any representation we have to represent yourselves at the expense of us. i cant speak for all asians, but this is my personal opinion as an asian person.

[@HumanBeing2137]

[@gjkdshgkjshjkgdfg]

I haven't watched the video so srry if I misunderstand, but imo that's an issue with you being biased, not you being creative. if you're going to draw that, but just for the sake of being creative with a character; put it into context like. "this is character A if they were born in 1900s rural England". And just call it an AU instead of admitting to whitewashing on the spot. Then I don't think people should have a problem with that tbh
