Its that thing with all dark surrealism painters, 25% of their art is interesting, 85% is pure cringe.
>>7793495check out max klinger, who this kubin guy says he was inspired by>>7793535agreed, the tasteful ones are good thosome of these drawings are strangely modern looking like >>7793502

>>7793495mentally ill /begs/ of /ic/ could never
>>7793495Apparently his father used to carry around the corpse of his mother around the house, when he was a kid.
>>7793535Take that back, you jerk. I like all of them. It's my kind of thing, and you're saying it's cringe?
Damn interesting thread extremely cool art have a bump
Reminder that successful mentally ill artists succeed in spite of their mental illness and not because of it
>>7798379Most mentally ill people are too fucked up to make any art whatsoever. That's why I'm grateful I can make any poem, any photo, any drawing; even if I am happy with it, I am still blessed enough to make some form of expression.
>>7798379wrong, you have to be mentally ill to put the time needed to succeed into artor retarded, but that's more of a modern thing after the internet
>>7799368Like thats isnt how every job works. Noone says to themselves I want to be a cpa when I grow up.
>>7793501>"Geez lady, get off your high horse!"
>>7799368>wrong, you have to be mentally ill to put the time needed to succeed into artOr you just have to be highly contentious/anxious and do what it takes to make your dreams come true. Most artists starts out with hubris and that ignorance gives them the wiggle room to grow until they realize that making art for people is shit and the big companies you've dreamed about working for pays shit.>>7793535>Its that thing with all dark surrealism painters, 25% of their art is interesting, 85% is pure cringe.Isn't this all artists in general, 25% good while the other pieces are shit? Also this guy is pretty good, I like his stuff.
>>7793495>>7793504>>7793509>>7793510>>7793511I have a hunch this artist probably inspired C. M. Kösemen when he was making "All tomorrows" and "All yesterdays"
>>7793535>25%>85%That covers 110% of his work. What about the rest?
>>7799541Good eye. It might be true.
