I want to share some wisdom from my high school art teacher In my AP Art class, there was a girl who was iust starting to experiment with mixed media. At this point she was still playing around, trying to decice what direction she wanted to go with her portfolio. So one critique day, she brought in an abstract canvas with some rhinestone highlights and painted and real peacock feathers. She loved sparkles and peacock feathers so she thought she'd try introducing them a *little*. And after everyone had given some input, the teacher gave her his advice, VERY roughly paraphrased here: "So here's the thing... I do not like this style. These are iust elements that do not speak to me personally, but I see that you like them, and you're doing interesting things with them. "My biggest critique is, I only merely *dislike* this piece. I want you to make me HATE it. Go crazy with the things that you like. Don't hold back trying to make it palatable to people like re. Because I am NEVER going to like it. And if the audience does not like it, it should drive them crazy seeing how much YOU love it." Her portfolio was chock full of neon colors and glitter and rhinestones and splashes of peacock feathers and it was a delight. Our teacher despised every piece lol, but she got great marks and I think even won some awards. And more importantly, she was happy and proud of the results. Because she didn't limit herself by trying to appeal to people who were never going to enjoy what she enjoyed Takeaway here: be as cringe as you want. Don't limit yourself based on other ppl's tastes. They're not you, and you are incredible

A friend just sent this to me and I wanted to share it with all the artists and writers

sanrio collab makes me happy

This tonkotsu ramen in theory is flawless.

And yet, I find this perfection to be quite superficial. It may taste good, but the dish lacks any passion leading to the flavour having little to no depth.

Perhaps perfection is overrated if it destroys the character this dish once had.

I've once read that the tengu of the japanese mythos are the teachers of ninjas. Dunno if that's accurate but its a neat idea and decided to do a small little crossover fanart using some of my fav fandoms
