Your Friends And Art Contemporary
Are you just being nice when you tell a friend that his or her artwork looks good? And are your friends just humoring you when they tell you that your work is cool?
It’s all about psychology. Take it from me, a failed artist whose friends used to pick me up constantly after I produced yet another self-portrait that showed incredible resemblance to a sun-dried tomato, it’s all in the initial reaction and the way it’s said.
I used to struggle with charcoal for hours on end whilst trying to etch my imagination onto a 36″ x 48″ blank canvas and end up with a hilarious final product. Why was it hilarious? Because my friends used to walk into my dorm room and fall over themselves in rip-roaring fits of uncontrollable laughter! Don’t get me wrong, I had and have some great friends, and I have never aspired to be the next art contemporary hero because, quite simply, I’ve never been any good at it. I had to channel talents in other directions, to put it bluntly. But it’s always a telltale sign that a work of art is not the best if it gets laughed hysterically at upon first sight!
A long pause can also say it all. If more than two seconds pass between someone seeing an art contemporary piece and commenting, then the artwork in question probably doesn’t give the audience much to talk about.
Art contemporary is for everybody, and any form of self-expression in the current day is art contemporary, but some things just don’t make the grade on levels set out by anybody. Don’t worry, my art was like that! It’s important to remember that an artist shouldn’t set out to please anybody with his or her work if it is true art contemporary, because it is all about what is inside the artist and nobody else knows that.
