I guess I feel that video games in general are art but in the more literal sense what do you love to look at and why? My latest obsession is David Pino who used mathematical algorithms to create art while even offering to allow others to manipulate the algorithms to create their own material. Something about his work has me staring at it over and over while thinking about the silly bullshit that goes through my head like 'is there some connection between intelligence and the way trees grow.' https://m.imagekind.com/artists/davidpinophotography/ChaosFractals/fine-art-prints What are you guys into? -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- [Post 2] Auteur : yzb25 Date : November 29th, 2020 03:55 AM Title : Re: What kind of Art are you into an why? I love Rembrandt's paintings. I was lucky enough to see Belshazzar's feast in the flesh a year or two ago at the National Gallery. Believe me when I say it's totally different from looking at it on google images. You can only appreciate the level of detailed texture and "3-dimensional-ness" of it in person. If you ever get an opportunity to see some of his stuff in the flesh, I 100% recommend you snag it even if it's only one of his self portraits. I love the National Gallery. I don't know why anyone would choose to come to this miserable rainy island we call the UK of their own free will, but if some kidnapper drags you here or something the ONLY thing worth seeing is the National Gallery. And all the fucking tourists end up going to see the QUEEN instead. She's literally a rich old woman in cosplay, you fucking imbeciles. Go to the National Gallery instead. You can spend hours in a single room staring at the paintings and just getting teleported man. Or I dunno, just get bored af after 5 mins like your uncultured good-for-nothing shits you call friends inevitably will. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- [Post 3] Auteur : Oberon Date : November 29th, 2020 04:07 AM Title : Re: What kind of Art are you into an why?

I've seen The Night Watch in person, it was a great painting. It's absolutely colossal in person too. Bit cliched but I like psychedelic art, especially things like mandalas and the type. Recently I'm also enjoying street art. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- [Post 5] Auteur : MartinGG99 Date : November 29th, 2020 11:22 AM Title : Re: What kind of Art are you into an why? Hmmmm. I'm not often into visual art a whole lot. However, I will say a lot of my PC desktop backgrounds (like 85% of it) either contain fantasy or sci-fi imagery depicted in any format because I think they look cool. I'm not really into individual artists, though, I just pick and choose. Here are some examples: https://www.deviantart.com/robs0n/art/Dragon-Age-Mass-Effect-Fan-Art-Dragon-Reaper-2-513439798 https://images-wixmp-ed30a86b8c4ca887773594c2.wixmp.com/f/a66d89c8-adf0-475b-981d-9dcd227d52af/d8hosom-423e86c1-845d-466c-bc05-28aa42391678.jpg/v1/fill/w_1024,h_613,q_75,strp/dragon_age___mass_effect_fan_art__dragon_reaper_2_by_robs0n_d8hosom-fullview.jpg?token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJ1cm46YXBwOiIsImlzcyI6InVybjphcHA6Iiwib2JqIjpbW3siaGVpZ2h0IjoiPD02MTMiLCJwYXRoIjoiXC9mXC9hNjZkODljOC1hZGYwLTQ3NWItOTgxZC05ZGNkMjI3ZDUyYWZcL2Q4aG9zb20tNDIzZTg2YzEtODQ1ZC00NjZjLWJjMDUtMjhhYTQyMzkxNjc4LmpwZyIsIndpZHRoIjoiPD0xMDI0In1dXSwiYXVkIjpbInVybjpzZXJ2aWNlOmltYWdlLm9wZXJhdGlvbnMiXX0.Au4qmWsBUXoXF2sAwfTVvNAAHCamMqYwlLif31AK7uo https://www.deviantart.com/erikshoemaker/art/Goblet-of-Giants-724326305 https://images-wixmp-ed30a86b8c4ca887773594c2.wixmp.com/f/13570593-d036-4374-9dce-1e26c9c05170/dbz8tr5-5672f3aa-0872-4151-83f1-a83da1d07e0a.png?token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJ1cm46YXBwOiIsImlzcyI6InVybjphcHA6Iiwib2JqIjpbW3sicGF0aCI6IlwvZlwvMTM1NzA1OTMtZDAzNi00Mzc0LTlkY2UtMWUyNmM5YzA1MTcwXC9kYno4dHI1LTU2NzJmM2FhLTA4NzItNDE1MS04M2YxLWE4M2RhMWQwN2UwYS5wbmcifV1dLCJhdWQiOlsidXJuOnNlcnZpY2U6ZmlsZS5kb3dubG9hZCJdfQ.NrIE7-VuSolXPeU49FMeZ_a95Dtej8xVCAt5SqxLtGU https://www.deviantart.com/jjcanvas/art/Ocean-Storm-VR-562616770 https://images-wixmp-ed30a86b8c4ca887773594c2.wixmp.com/f/6ff2ccfb-d302-4348-87bc-8b9568748e63/d9aytvm-aa1d1780-c299-4b69-8b5a-2e05d1ad47db.jpg?token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJ1cm46YXBwOiIsImlzcyI6InVybjphcHA6Iiwib2JqIjpbW3sicGF0aCI6IlwvZlwvNmZmMmNjZmItZDMwMi00MzQ4LTg3YmMtOGI5NTY4NzQ4ZTYzXC9kOWF5dHZtLWFhMWQxNzgwLWMyOTktNGI2OS04YjVhLTJlMDVkMWFkNDdkYi5qcGcifV1dLCJhdWQiOlsidXJuOnNlcnZpY2U6ZmlsZS5kb3dubG9hZCJdfQ.gZ-CDHZEDlIqvTGRw-nrfjE_PDOtiuwiKiSCSKx8BzM Although I just realized, all 3 of the examples here have some sort of dragon-like creature or being in it :thinking: -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- [Post 6] Auteur : Helz Date : November 29th, 2020 11:54 AM Title : Re: What kind of Art are you into an why?

Music. The part of music I actually consider as art is stuff like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rwAooQkK1ng Old, meaningful music, with coherent and beautiful lyrics. And this guy is Belgian singing in French, but you should get the point lol.

I am more into digital art, as well as graffiti art, but nevertheless I enjoy modern paintings as well. Lately, I have read a lot of information about painting techniques, great artists and their background history. It’s really interesting for me to understand how an artist thinks and what are his aspirations. I set a goal for myself to buy more art pieces for my collection. So, I started looking for personalized canvas prints online (https://canvaspop.com/products/canvas-prints) and pretty fast I found this online platform that’s sells great pieces. I bought three artworks and I am really happy overall with the quality, as well as the price point which was very affordable. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- [Post 13] Auteur : SuperJack Date : April 2nd, 2021 08:54 AM Title : Re: What kind of Art are you into an why?

After The Fall of Silvermoon (https://wowwiki-archive.fandom.com/wiki/The_Fall_of_Silvermoon), they were cut off from their source of magic to which they were addicted to. Now calling themselves Blood Elves due to their now corruption - they pledge themselves to follow Illidan who in turn promises them more magic than they can imagine, later in TFT campaign when they save him. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- [Post 18] Auteur : Marshmallow Marshall Date : April 3rd, 2021 11:40 PM Title : Re: What kind of Art are you into an why?

Have really never seen any famous art pieces in person, but two artists I definitely like are Gustave Doré and Zdzisław Beksiński. Gustave's work being symbolical and biblical.
