What is “Good” Art?

[Martin Hash]

I'll add that there is a reason that much of woke/critical theory emerged from literature departments.

There were a bunch of people who didn't respond positively to the canonical works, and instead of taking this as evidence that they had more to learn and understand, they went about attacking the quality of the classics - trying to find other explanations for why we study Shakespeare.

It is hard to scientifically prove that Shakespeare is 'good' to someone who doesn't like Shakespeare, so that means qualitative differences are illusions?

Nah.

I hate Shakespeare.

I'm a master penciller, but I struggle when it comes to inking

you have to commit to the line, and that takes a phenom

my stuff would be great, if pmike inked it

And I don't care about comic books.

That doesn't mean there aren't important qualitative differences between them.

oof moebius among the best ever

thank you smitty i love comic book artists. i could never do it, the jansons simonsons and adams of the world are just as far away from me as they are from anyone. insane

I am a phenom with the pencil, but I don't have the finish

and I didn't go to art school, I taught myself to draw, so I don't have any post rendering knowledge

it's like girls would be hot for me at the clubs, alpha male

but when they saw my art studio, that was panties coming down fo sho, right there

No there's not; Carl Barks is god; lots of people agree with me, and lots of people don't. There's nothing anyone can point at that can convince another person.

p.s. Jack Kirby is the finest artist to ever exist.
