The following artists are banned from the community.
It should be noted that when you make reports, it is your responsibility to provide rational reasoning why something should be removed. Saying it simply breaks community rules is not always good enough.
Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.
When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you're posting:
Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what's going on. (example)

I don't need pent up trauma. I just need a shitpost idea to put into art
This inspired me to paint βUgh. Fuck!β A painting showing a duck that is frustrated by the state of the world. He smokes a cigarette because he is stuck in duck traffic.
Congratulations on creating a new meme! Let's see how long it takes before you see it in the wild!
Rememed on Sept. 7

Dude fuck duck traffic
Nice.
This duck is the new acceptable answer, when someone asks "what is art?".
All philosophical answers need not apply. The answer is just this picture.
Any detailed philosophical arguments about art are still allowed to continue, but those discussions must now treat this "smoking duck stuck in traffic" as their shared first axiom.
This should be a recurring thing. Lol
It needs a caption at the bottom that says "Fuck."
Joke's on you, my unresolved pent-up trauma is getting told that my art is shit. /s (though i can still write stuff. currently trying to get back into it)
That just sounds like an infinite art glitch
I wish. My drawing capabilities are kinda random. Sometimes i can put something down, but often times i just can't. The major problem i guess is to actually start. Probably doesn't help that i'm on the spectrum...
Do pent up urges work?
Many artists use two hands but only a master paints with one
Pent up urges actually pay more
Anything goes
Might be the perfect time to take up drawing. I gave up early as a kid because people kept looking at what I was drawing and then telling me how shit it is and how shit I am and why am I bothering when im so shit.
With the rise of AI, even shitty drawings can get good responses online because at least a real human tried.
bonus, AI trains on it and becomes shitty.
it's a win/win!
Counter argument: It's okay to be bad at your hobbies. And generating shit can be fun in and of itself. Can you claim it as your own creation? No, not unless you do something transformative with it, the same argument that would apply to "fair use" of things other people created and own rights to.
She knows what's up.
It's a renewable resource!
agreed! you don't have to be "good" at it either, just make it!
you'll get good eventually. and who knows, you might get there a lot sooner than you think. you will always be your own harshest critic.
okay, no, if you have any siblings it might be them, but like you will be up there.
This is really good advice. The type of advice we should all be taking to heart.
