Get your eyes fucking checked.
That’s pretty neat, still looks pretty sloppy. Looks like a drug trip.
It looks like something a 3rd year art school student today would paint while they took drugs.
Ah yes you're right! I forgot that photo-realism is the only art form, thank you for reminding us all! There've never been other forms of art, it has only been a race to be a camera, I totally forgot!
What an insight into art, we need to inform people to take down all paintings drawn by Frida Kahlo at once! Some guy on the internet thinks it's easy to do and sloppy!
We all enjoy what we enjoy, why’re you so mad about someone expressing that?
They are not talking about what they enjoy, they're trying to explain that an artist is unskilled for their art which others enjoy. I feel like you have this backward.
What? I’ve read that like 3 times and I still don’t know what you’re trying to say. Art being enjoyed by others is not a measure of skill?
