the best art is mostly playful nonsense, and as oscar Wilde says, or said, I'm sure he's been dead long enough to qualify for being spoken about in the past. Anyway, I quote
"The only excuse for making a useless thing is that one admires it intensely. All art is quite useless".
But now, seriously, what you're doing is art, you are showing things that you discover in a way that other people can understand. You're translating the wonder of things observed into a picture in which the beauty of real life can be seen. So less of this 'you' artists, as I'm afraid you're one of us!
I would pursue your images, don't be afraid to show people what you find amazing and inspirational, you'll find that many don't get it and never will, yet others will be so glad you shared as they take inspiration to go and look a little closer at seemingly banal objects to see hidden worlds in them.
Cheers Nick...very kind words!
That Oscar quote is superb...[like so many of his]....what insight/intellect and wit that guy had....!
I guess at times i just question the 'things' that i do...but at the moment i feel compelled to produce these images o mine...[or rather 'natures' images]....don't know why! Only just started doing 'this thing' since i started looking at this art forum...!!!
[Past few years i've been 'doing' mainly writing...believe it or not:eek!:...as it's something i enjoy...especially the 'fun stuff']...
Am pleased that you and others see what i am attempting to do in this little visual 'venture' of mine.....so i shall continue.....:eek!:
Okay...enuff woffle for now....all the best....:t:
