I am incredibly fond of the 19th century Impressionist movement. My favorite artists include; Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Antonio Mancini, Nicolai Fechin, Claude Monet, and various others!
If I'm not looking at art, I'm probably playing a game! (Or coding, ouughh) As of writing this, I mostly engage with Red Dead Redemption and Kojima stuff.
Click below for my brief thoughts on things!
I think about everything in terms of art; it is essentially who I am. I am deeply saddened by the dismissal of art in the modern world. Art has become so diluted--so devoid of meaning. Art is an innate representation of the self. To see art without an understanding for the concept itself--without a critical eye, it is not seeing at all. This is just a ramble, but it's a succinct version of what my actual thoughts are. I've not found many art enjoyers in real life, so I have to share here, OTL.
gonna write later
I've been trying to be less of a consumer lately. It feels bad buying stuff--like, what will happen to this item once I die? Where will it go? What resources were used in its creation? Do I really need this item enough to warrant whatever negative consequences purchasing it will create? I feel like I need to appreciate whatever I have more, as having too much will sully value. I kind of hoard like, plastic packaging and stuff now. I like reusing things or adding pieces to my sketchbook--repurposing trash in a decorative manner. Yet, I still want things relating to media I like. Am I a consoomer? Or am I adding to my hobby of collecting if I were to buy such things?
Engaging in physical, traditional art doesn't make me feel good either. Oils are toxic, everything comes in packaging, nearly everything is disposable--what am I to do? If I use only my laptop for art, am I not using energy? How can I balance my passion and my guilt?
