His use of mannerism in a contemporary context is really funny, what do you all think?

Why do people pretend that they're all about muh reel art instead of weeb art, when it's obviously the opposite?

>>3851516
I haven't seen this one before, I didn't realise he was so capable of painting a beautiful woman without half mocking her at the same time. It kind of makes all his other work more jarring knowing that he CAN do it prettily but he really chooses not to, before I just assumed he had bad aesthetics accidentally

>> No.3854511

>>3851510
never heard of him before this but pretty good stuff

board is 19 year old weebs, sucks but thats the way it is. anything that isnt a sphere with big eyes and a little mouth is "ugly" and "bad" just because they dont like it if they dont want to fuck it

more like we also haven't heard of him before and dont know what to say

at least saying that is something, most d/ic/ks will rather insult something before or ignore it they admit they don't know of something

because this is ironic degenerate art with some competant technique

people can subconsciously already feel the pretentiousness.

This is like that retard here on /ic/ who posts the meme celeb screencaps, but actually worse because they are made with some sort of effort
Absolutely the lowest lowbrow garbage

Do you realize that "pretentious" in an inherently pejorative term?

Is there really such a thing a degenerate art or real art or weeb art is all the fundamental same

It has a delightfully editorial quality and anything that satires lowbrow schlock is good in my book. It's fun, it's an inside joke, not everyone gets it.

look how far this joke went.
