horrid. can't believe this is on "traditional art"
?
Do you just not like the style?
Ok you know what, you got me. I can't argue with the part you've quoted above. I suppose it doesn't break any rules on the community.
But yes, basically I don't like the style or subject to the extent where a simple downvote would just not do and thought I should share my thoughts.
Does anyone know of a community similar to reddit's /r/museum ?
I also hate it when people on the Internet don't cater directly to my tastes. Thank you for standing up for people like us rather than simply scrolling by.
lol no problem! Someone's gotta do it! 😂
You have to admit that if the name needs clarification then it's not a great name for the community. Either way, I think this art is cool. Other guy's probably just some stuffy old prat too stuck in their ways to appreciate anything new.
Traditional art meaning physical works is the correct usage, at least in the art world. And it's explained further in the sidebar.
I will not take slander from someone excited about the cartoon Avatar, or who is keen to discuss its geopolitics. Good day to you from a stuffy old prat!
Nerd lol
Oh wow, all these comments and none of them didn't make you not sound like a prick
How vulgar!
