I am a moody artist that's mildly obsessed with Batman.
Things I love include Batman, bacon, Tim Drake, Damian Wayne, Colin Wilkes, bacon, and Cassandra Cain. And bacon.
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
this is how I usually start my art
this actually makes sense to me
I forgot how to draw anime style, I’m not sure if that’s a good thing or not…
People expect their dentist, their doctor, or their car mechanic to have experience doing his or her job right? Yet when they ask for their services, they don’t ask them to do it for free. Then why do people ask artists to do artwork for them for free?
If someone tells you that art should be easy for you since you’re an artist, stab them in the eye with a pencil.
In art… those who are refined, rich, unoccupied, who are distillers of quintessence’s, seek what is new, strange, original, extravagant, scandalous. I myself, since Cubism and before, have satisfied these masters and critics with all the changing oddities which passed through my head, and the less they understand me, the more they admired me. By amusing myself with all these games, with all these absurdities, puzzles, rebuses, arabesques, I became famous and that very quickly. And fame for a painter means sales, gains, fortunes, riches. And today, as you know, I am celebrated, I am rich. But when I am alone with myself, I have not the courage to think of myself as an artist in the great and ancient sense of the term. Giotto, Titian, Rembrandt were great painters. I am only a public entertainer who has understood his times and exploited as best he could the imbecility, the vanity, the cupidity of his contemporaries. Mine is a bitter confession, more painful than it may appear, but it has the merit of being sincere.
