Artist's Comments

So . . . *sips* . . . how long you figure until someone misinterprets this one? ;]

Just rummaging through the Critiques section the other day - note to self, try that thing sometime - and found a sentiment that enraged me. And it wasn't the first time that happened, no sir.

Simply because a subject has been used before doesn't make a work unoriginal - otherwise it would be impossible for images of pretty ladies or majestic animals to be original. And simply because the artist didn't come up with a character off the top of their head doesn't make a work unoriginal - otherwise it would be impossible for religious or historical artwork to be original.

An artwork featuring Naruto, Mario, Darth Vader, or Harry Potter is fully capable of being less, just as, or more original than an artwork featuring Original Character #34571098.

Interesting art is always interesting.

I can't stand people saying something is not original just because he/she "saw something similar somewhere once long ago".
What do they want? that artists forsake their knowledge and culture, become gods and then come up with a whole universe of their own?

But what about fanart of original characters? o:


I love good fanart as much as any picture. I'd probably draw it more, but I'm never very satsified with mine.

Amen sista.
I don't understand why so many people unecessarily get their pretty panties in a twist over stuff like this. (Well, other than the fact that we are stealing their pageviews, dammit. How dare we!)
