An assortment! I've painted landscapes and buildings from St Louis before, I typically do animated character art commissions because they sell the best

I also do poured paint work :3

If I was a betting man it's Mickey mouse choke slamming Donald duck


That's the one :p


Editing to include a painting that sold at a local shop semi recently

Another tldr pointless thread.

Art is subjective and people can spend their money however they want.

Move on, nothing to see here folks.

If
You can listen to someone that isn't an expert in the topic
Then
You can enjoy art from someone that isn't famous.

"Isn't an expert", that depends on the issue and situation. A lot of people can be experts in things they don't necessarily have a 5-10 year education in. Education is the process of brainwashing to get ready for real life experience. People living the real life have real life experience from the start. That is also worth listening to. And that's why i like and use the internet - i want the raw facts from people in the field. A lot, and i mean a LOT, of people i have discussed with, that tell me they have education and all this, they can't put all their book knowledge into real life advice. And that's a big problem.

Lol ^^ I remember at one of the norwegian websites i was banned from, i had a discussion about ethics, there was something about the education system and children and something... don't exactly remember. Lol. And one of the users wrote they had a 5 year education in exactly ethics and philosophy, and was just pissed off at me making these statements that i did, with no education and such. And i told him back like, "what does it matter? I have real life experience, if you know better, i appreciate if you shut me up, i like to learn". And who do you think got the ban and more warning points? Yours truly.

And well yes, i can enjoy art in anything. But it has to be good art, not fake art. Natural art. Not just art made to sell. There is a difference there.

I think cannot say someone obtaining real life education isn't also getting real life experience.
I think you cannot say that what they are learning is brain washing.
That's like me saying your real life experiences have brain washed you. You only know what you know and got washed in the cycle. You never left you cycle. A loop of your life 'living under a rock'.
Speaking of living on a rock, earth::

Do you think your experience in horoscopes categorizes you as an expert?
If yes, how does being an expert in horoscope effect your expertise in astrology?
I think you're not an expert in either as you have no real life experience in space.
You have experience on Earth and even then, it's brainwashed and manipulated by your nature vs nurture upbringing & continued life.
