I agree 110% with everyones comments on your comment of "same old shit" pic. I really think what you said was couragous and sweet. You did what I havent seen so far, stuck up for all those who take much pride in their work even if it is the same old. Who cares, right? Its for fun and for what artists want, not what others want to see. Your a hero hehe. Gonna devwatch you Please do more soon!

are you an aries or a scorpio?

Hey Tom, you are REALLY good, and very creative surely! I really loved your draws and your style of art!! And I should say I trully loved the thought behind the last posts you've sent to your gallery. I came to it through that stupid "art" called "some old shit" that I felt extremelly bad of reading (you can see why as well through my deviant av. ). I didn't read the post sent but yours that atracted deeply my attention. Great points of criticism on that 'cause I can tell you I had almost the same thoughts of you seeing that.
Congratulations for the second time.

Art - Something difficult to explain

DUDE!!!
YOURE MY HERO!!!
YOU STOOD UP FOR OTHER DEVIANTS IN THAT "Same old shit" drawing...You were SO right!!! People that were "guilty" should be ashamed of theirselves for even calling theirselves artists...in my opinion at least...YOU ROCK DUDE! and your art is just awesome!!!!

Free Thinkers Are Dangerous

i agree with that stuff you said on that "same old shit" pic. my eyes are bleeding with all the reading... but anyway, i hate making backgrounds. and i'm surprised no-one mentioned "the same old shit" in the comments? i must've seen at least 180 comments with "you are my god, i love you" or "i'm guilty of at least 2 of them" etc etc. altho yea, the lowering to their level isn't cool... fleh.


cool artstuffs!

p.s. cheers for sticking up for the newer artists. someone had to, i suppose...

"Possibly the most idiotic criticism of art is to say that it is self indulgent" - Elvis Costello

Wow, your art aside, because I haven't delved into it much yet, I just read your comment on the art titled "How to Draw the Same Old Shit" and I must say that I'm impressed. It's rare to see a Deviant even have half a mind to express as much as you did, much less in the amount of detail that you did it. I appreciate the fact that someone had the balls to stand up for what they thought about someone else's controversial art, even though most of the people had likes on that one. It's nice to see that there are some people on DA are capable of saying something other than "WOW I LIKE IT!" or "OOOO THAT'S NICE." You disliked something the way it was meant to be done, by telling the person, in explicit detail, why you didn't like their piece. Be wary though, that you don't end up sounding as insulting as the artist that you found insulting. You know, the whole "Lowering yourself to their level" stuff. Keep up the good work.
