Art Art and More Art

I like Twitter, but it does feel overly "try-hard" to post extremely long shit there, so I return.

I want to create art that others and myself feel a desire to return too.
I've created so much thoughtless art, and held myself back from increasing my abilities.

Right now I'm returning to watercolor.
At Walmart I picked up a little watercolor memo for small, casual practice, that has more of a focus on learning to use color rather then having good form, lines or anything else.

Subject matter is important, but only in so far as how I can enhance it/tie it into the color choices.


I still like drawing people, but I feel that really limits what I can express. I want to draw more backgrounds, buildings, interiors, and abstract art.
In particular, I'm very interested in cluttered abstract/surrealist art that expresses frenzy and high energy. I'm interested in composition.

As for viewing other's "cluttered" art, I think am better at taking it in and creating a "whole" feeling informed by all pieces rather than being overly focused on any singular element. I think this density of information is extremely powerful and would like to be able to create works like that myself. I think symbolism is very useful for achieving this affect due to their density of meaning that literal objects might not be able to convey as easily, especially in pieces lacking a larger text.

I'm feeling really excited. I'm not sure what I want to do. I know I have some art on the backburner that I'm feeling a little more inclined to finish, but after that, what? I'm really not sure. I'm not sure at all!

I think reading art history and thinking about all the differing intentions that people can approach art with has helped me to be a little less insecure about making art that isn't a direct "expression" of myself. I think a bit of detachment is healthy for me and helps me to make choices that are more thoughtful <3

I feel like this entire train of thought is a little incomplete, as I have no idea where I want to go...but I think that's okay! I want to figure out where I want to go!!! I want to know!! I think that path is surrealism and more Buck-Tick fanart, but we'll see...

Talking on the internet

I've definitely graduated from "poster" to someone that talks very actively online in the past year or so haha. I don't know what happened, but I talk alot on Twitter these days to other people, and I've finally found alot of cool people I respect that also want to talk to me and reply to me without prompt? I guess I've become a more interesting person to others. It's quite amazing, I think my social skills, at least online have really leveled up and it has been quite fruitful to me as, of course, others will know things and people that I don't. It's wonderful, the world is a rainbow and the people are iro iro no iro, fantastic lmao.
