The picture in the OP is, I feel, a mixture of disdain and mockery (hence the titles), but also in being so a piece of art itself (as I made it with such an intention). I love art, but I disregard much of it and also have a distaste for much of it - the piece I posted was meant to represent certain parts of my disdain for art, and as such at the same time became a piece of art itself further making my point and being despicable to me.

One thing you must keep in mind is that when I make art, I make photography - when I use drawing or painting as a medium, it is when I am making 'punk' art or statements meant to mock art itself (or pop concepts, like my drawing I could never post here of a twisted 'domo-kun' with a large bizarre (-) and two breasts [titled, aptly, domo-(censored-sounds-like-kun)]).

I do not make fine art, but I make art.
