Unpopular opinion: There is no „waste“ of paint when you’re doing art. Even pieces you are unhappy with are teaching you what mistakes you did or what you didn’t like so you can avoid it in the future.

im glad there r so many artists here who dont want to make it their career, cuz im always paranoid that literally every artist only wants an art career. i DO want (n srsly need) to get mine off the ground, always trying to figure it out n working towards it (literally always), n im lots of times tweaked asf abt if every other artist is being fake or competitive or antagonistic, etc. etc. but being reminded that lots of ppl actually dont wanna make careers outta their art, is nice to see

Same! I love being able to create on my own terms without worrying about commisions and sales to pay rent.

[@tiffanymichaels2429]

Plus the fact that a person may have other talents and interests as well. And what you wish to pursue may change with age. People are complex and sometimes taking something you love and trying to turn it into a career can actually take the joy out of it because of the pressure. Rather than relieve stress it becomes a cause of stress. On top of that a person's artwork is a very personal. To have people judge a piece of you is a lot to handle when something you've poured your heart and soul into. So I totally understand why some people choose not to go to art school to become an artist.

[@88Selinne]

Thank You Rae!!! Exactly. Art can just be an escape from reality. I’ve gotten many comments about that too. One that kind’ve stuck for a while when I was younger was from a friend. She asked me if I was thinking of perusing a career as an artist. I answered her “ no, not really I just do it for fun it relaxes me” she answered me. “ God I hate when people that know how to draw don’t want to become artist, so wasteful!” I still get those comments but eeeh I still love it just for relaxation

[@13origamichickens91]

Art school can be really expensive and not super easy to get into. It's also not the only way to continue a passion for art. You can use it in so many different ways throughout your life, and the skills you picked up along the way can be really helpful.

I share your opinions (though I do love my Pigma Microns 😉). 😊 Regarding Copics, I have some from a subscription box and they're nice but I don't think I'd pay that much for something that's not even light fast. I LOVE Rothko! 😍 I don't necessarily consume his art on a deep level, I just find the shapes and colours very soothing. 😊 Talking about artist statements made me smile because once I had to make three pieces with the theme of emotions. I was feeling bored and mischievous at this point so I just threw stuff together, including one particularly kitsch piece with glitter, pink acrylic paint and plastic doll faces glued to it. It was hilarious to watch my tutors agonise about the deeper meaning of this piece and have a whole class discussion on it! 😂

Unpopular opinion: In one of my art classes we're focusing on recreating famous painters art, such as Pablo Picasso. We're being graded on how well we replicate his style. Personally, I think that while it's good to learn about different painters techniques and it can be very helpful in understanding different processes we shouldn't just be duplicating their styles. We should instead be learning from their techniques to help us create our own art with our own unique styles, instead of just copying what someone already did.

[@keepyourshoesathedoor]

In my art class, I had to watch a documentary and it said realism isn’t just the place or object you’re trying to recreate, but rather it’s how the artist sees it. A landscape for example, when you’re drawing or painting it, you have to pay attention to detail and make decisions based on what your own eyes see, what details you include or exclude. Especially if you take your own reference photo or drawing from life, you’re making it from your own perspective, from the angle you saw it in, and paying attention to composition

[@helenaap2042]

Thats the exact reason why photography is art, even if you were doing a digital painting in realist style its still art. It also ties in the fact that digital art is art too

[@TheNightowl001]

Exactly. If photographs can be art, photorealistic works can be art. Imagination comes into play in the choice of the subject and composition and whatever one is reproducing in a photorealistic manner.

[@commentbot9510]

You could also draw things that aren’t real in a realistic way to create really interesting and beautiful artworks

[@unknownhuman5873]

I kinda stopped doing any realism because my teacher said I need to do other things since realism is "boring" but I enjoyed it but can't do it anymore since I quit :(. I could only do semi realism since I was still inexperienced but still

[@tony4012]

@@unknownhuman5873 oh man that sucks that a teacher said that. Teachers should never tell students to not do smth. This is actually pretty common and in one of chloe rose art’s videos she was reacting to confessions and one of them said that an art teacher would give the student an A to never do anything artistic again. I think a good way to do things other than realism is to include realism as part of a piece instead of the whole thing so you can still use realism but in a more creative way (as part of a collage for example).

[@tanwencooper6928]

Unpopular opinion: You have no obligation to get "better" at art to keep doing it. Most artists want to get better, and people naturally improve at things they do over and over again, but if you're happy drawing stick figures and never getting beyond that - that's okay too.

Dude, I really needed to hear this. I kinda had a lot of trouble with people telling me that drawing anything was pointless if I wasn't constantly improving. One of my supposed friends actually lectured me because at the time I drew really stupid shit post comics that were supposed to look poorly done, and apparently my work wasn't improving enough for his liking. To be fair, he also insulted a lot of the small little characters I would spend a lot of time on after looking through my notebook without my permission. It actually took me a really long time to get remotely comfortable with drawing anything after how critical he had been. He always had an opinion, and he probably would've really hated some of the opinions in this video. Thankfully, I've been doing a lot better creatively since he stopped being in my life. In fact, I haven't been able to draw for a bit due to the lack of resources for my preferred medium (digital) but the moment I can get back to it I've got tons of ideas. I know I went off a bit, and sorry for venting. I really needed to hear that though, so thank you

[@storiesthatneverwere800]

[@TruckingElder]

Thru writing you can create a picture in the readers mind as vivid as any painting and, better, you can convey the emotions behind it without an artist's statement explaining it

[@NanaSomebody]

Yes I agree!

[@GoblinHours-im2ue]

I agree!

[@victoriamckown4094]

I feel like writing is it’s own art form. Through writing we create worlds, characters, and emotions that is also done through today’s modern art. Previously some art was about realism and nowadays it’s going more towards symbolism and emotions while writing has been doing since that since beginning or at least parts of it like poetry. I feel that art and writing can relate on many aspects. Realism can be seen in writing through journalistic articles which is about telling the truth or what’s in front of you like a still life. For example modernist art could be like poetry being an expression of love. As a writer and artist I find so many connections between the two mediums that I work with. It really is thrilling to combine two things that I love very dearly. Whether it be drawing a character for a story for something I’m going to write on the page so I can visually see it or creating the cover of a story I write, I find a deep connection between them.

[@vaishnavisingh9244]

"Some artists hold their art so near to their heart, they don't want to share it with the world"- I think I feel the same way about my poems and snippets of songs?

My controversial art opinion is that tracing has its benefits. Early on it taught me to get my lines right and perfect shapes by seeing where I was off and what needed improvement.

@UlookBeautifultoday. It can be for some, And a disadvantage for others. I stopped tracing as a kid because i realized that i couldn't draw on my own anymore, Now i can stare at something and basically trace it with my mind using shades and shapes and that's a way to learn as well, It really depends on the person. Something more helpful than tracing is grids because it teaches your brain how to split up your subject. Hope this was helpful 🤔

I'm in the UK and my BFF at uni was bribed by her parents not to pursue a degree in art. They wanted her to be an accountant, so she managed to strike a balance with them by doing something she had a passion for, which was environmental science. She enjoyed it and learnt a lot but when it came down to it she just didn't have the style of learning for science, and barely scraped a pass. And the whole thing also apparently killed her joy for art too, so it was doubly sad. I think in her mind it had translated as people not thinking she was good enough to be an artist, when in reality I think her parents just wanted her to do something with anbit more stability to it. So, what did she do after uni? She became an accountant 🤦‍♀️. I will say that I don't think you need to study art at university to become an artist. But if that is where your passion lies then don't let people dissuade you from it. I really wish my friend had insisted on studying art but compromised in a different way by instead taking a minor in business studies. I think that would have been a great way to combine both things and understand how to make art marketable, and of course would have provided a fall back plan if being an artist didn't work out.

There's people that don't consider photo-realism art? I mean, it's literally you using art techniques to create something. I genuinely do not understand the modern fixation on everything being as unique as possible and not taking influence on anything. It's not a bad thing to take inspiration from something or someone.

[@hawkeyescoffee6399]

I think anyone who tries to tell you that photorealism isn't art are just jealous of your talent, because it is one of the hardest art styles I can think of. The great thing about photorealism though is that it isn't just copying a photo, because once you can do that then you can: take that photo and use the painting process to highlight aspects in it, or exclude other aspects from the picture, you can change the emphasis or feel/mood of the picture, take two photos and merge them together. Or, you can even create a photorealist painting that didn't even originate from a photo...but it looks like it did. It's _so_ much more than just copying. I live in awe of people who can create photorealsistic art.

Unpopular opinion -- there's no such thing as "talent." There's study, and practice, and work, and practice, and observation, and practice, and focus, and practice, and learning, and practice, and there's also practice and practice and practice. That "amazingly talented" twenty-year-old has been drawing since she was old enough to clutch a crayon in her chubby little toddler hand, and has been painting since her parents got her a set of cheap watercolors when she was seven or eight. She's one of the ones who never stopped drawing (everyone draws as a very young child; most of us stop drawing on our own -- when it's not for a class assignment or something -- by the time we're eight or nine) and has spent the last eighteen of her twenty years drawing and painting, looking at pro art and trying to copy it, drawing manga and My Little Ponies and her dog, looking at art books in the library and watching art videos on KZbin, and trying to do what they taught her, so now at eighteen, yeah, she's better than any other thousand kids her age. That's not "talent." That's *work,* and calling it talent -- as if it's something that was handed to her for free that she didn't have to work for -- is an insult.

I have to disagree mainly due to the fact that some people ARE more talented than others. It's not a knock on anybody it's just reality. To someone who may be complimenting your art by saying "you're so talented" it just means that you have a lot of skill even if you worked hard to get it and it wasn't entirely "natural" (even though I believe working for it is just as natural as anything else) it still is very good. Especially to someone who is not an artist complimenting your work. They may not know that it took a lot of work or they may not know the type of work that went into it and that's not a bad thing they just haven't experienced making art beforelik you have and "talent" isn't supposed to be an insult. That's just how they see it because to them, a non artist who can barely draw a stick figure, it IS talent. And the fact that they're taking the time to even compliment you at all should be appreciated. I feel more insulted when I show someone an artwork and they go "cool" and that's it. Like the response feels like a slap in the face for the amount of time and hard work it took to complete and I think "you're so talented" is a much better compliment.

Listen the very fact that people look at Modern Art and have that reaction of 'anger' or 'this is too easy anyone could have done it' always causes me to bring up two points: 1. You had an emotional reaction to the piece. You looked at it and it made you feel something, and then you thought about it for longer than you would normally. THAT'S WHAT ART DOES. and 2. 'anyone could have done it' does not invalidate the fact that at the time, *no one else was doing it* in that way. Being the first person to do something that 'anyone can do' still means you've done something revolutionary. You can look at a picture of Rothko's works and maybe not understand what he was doing, but if you look at one in person, the reds are often so vivid they leave an impression on your eyes when you close them. He has somehow painted blacks that seem to *glow*. The use of color never would have occurred to my mind, and that's something to be respected even if people don't personally enjoy it. (Also, I respect the hell out of paint pourers too. It's not a "craft" - nor is "craft" a word that should be used to negatively comment on women's art - and the fact that it's primarily popularized by women rings me suspect as to why people are so negative about it.)

[@youngproblem5232]

The modern art as she is refering to in the video feels more related to abstract (which I am fine with, I like it) but what gets my bubbles boiling is when its just a white canvasas with a black dot in the middle or ive even seen just a plain white canvas before, stuff like that, yall say the anger you feel looking at it is what makes it art, but when i look at the canvas itself, i feel nothing, along with most people with this opinion, its when you adjust the focus to the thousands of dollars that makes me upset, yall say things like "well you didn't make it" or "well it has a story behind it" well one, i didnt make it because its a stupid idea, and two, if you so much as loved the story behind it, just grab a canvas slap white paint on it then put a small line of black paint and hang it up while thinking of the story for 10 bucks max instead of a million

[@MS-zo8tp]

@@youngproblem5232 I mean, it sounds like you're feeling resentment and anger to me. You thought enough about it to come type a comment to me. Also, the pieces that go for that high belong to artists who have worked for decades to build their name and craft. Are you saying that artists, whose skills are historically dismissed and undervalued, aren't allowed to set their own prices for their work? No one is forcing *you* to pay that much for the pieces.

[@TwiDashFTW]

I feel like people are angry, not because they saw the artwork, but because it is being regarded in an amazing light or hanging up in a gallery space when something else could have been placed there. The brush strokes, the colour, and the skill did not cause the reaction. The reaction was caused by thinking it was a waste of time. I love abstract art and think it takes skill to do, but if it's as simple as a blank canvas or some random shapes with no colour theory then like I'm also like "this means nothing and i can't believe they put this up instead of something else that took more skill" Most non-artists are going to think like that. It's okay if you or the artist likes it, but most people are not going to like it.
