You've got a lot of talent Spidermage, I'm really impressed. I'm sure you could get work doing this, if you're not doing that already (and if you don't waste your life playing computer games).

fuck off? excuse me? and just who the fuck are you, pal? the thread title mentioned artists. that's a very general term, one which encompasses a shitload of things. visual art isn't the only form of art out there. you can have writing, performance art, music, tons of shit.
a motherfucking huge middle finger to you for being such a tightwad prick.
oh snap, jason just got pissy.jasonofabitch loves!!!!

matter of fact, i'm going to throw down some more writing just to spite you. you put me in a bad mood, cocknob.
here's some heavily sad shit... i wrote this for my cousin who passed away last year. anorexia took her away from us.
come undone
ashes of a paper thin doll scatter on the ground
like feathers from a bird in flight
jeweled tears shimmer on porcelain faces
mixed with sadness
a sea of black on a sunny day
we starved along with her
we starved along with her
the dried red roses dangle
upside down on my wall
like the limp hands that folded on her chest before she was taken away
the roses were the icing on the cake
the ribbon on the present
something that was placed next to the urn
to make it a little less drab
a little more okay
it's not okay
it's still drab
and the jeweled tears are still sparkling
down, down, down
hands folding and unfolding in a prayer
turning like the pages of a book
flipping, back and forth
to and fro
flopping like a fish
the prayer said so many times
like a record skipping
it fell on deaf ears
for so many years, the prayer fell on deaf ears
the sent letters kissed away in the night, replaced with
anticipation of the red flag phone call
an anvil over my head
looming, waiting
i go on the drives
endless roads, endless miles
i try to package her up in a photograph album as I shut out the music whispering in the background
i try to tell myself the things i try to tell myself to make it all okay
it's not okay
they whispered
any day now
a paper thin doll waiting for the gusty wind to take her away
porcelain faces try to keep her down
holding her close in their arms
but you can't hold paper thin dolls so tight
they are bound to drift away
it was death in the form of a doll
pale, frail and tired
a little too much playtime for her
they weep, the ashes swirl
they blow
a tornado of gray on striking blue sky
floating up, up, up towards the sun
the porcelain faces shatter
they come undonejasonofabitch loves!!!!

Finally some recent work! I set up a free geocities account just to upload pics that are on devArt. These are all within about... 5 months or so.
Title: Stereotype Killer
Info: Final Fantasy XI fanart( bleh, liked it at the time ), hate the stereotype that mages, especially female White Mages, are weak, so thus this was born.
Title: Nyx
Info: A picture of a friend's character

Title: Panda Echan
Info: Done for my girlfriend, Abby. She loves pandas, her nickname for me is Echan and I gave her a Build-A-Bear panda named Echan, which lead to this, out of no where.
Title: Kedealith White Mage
Info: Final Fantasy XI fanart for a former friend of mine. She was a level 40+ White Mage in FFXI, so I drew her Hume in a slightly redesigned White Mage tunic.

Ok, first off I'll just mention that I have been writing and publishing for about 3 years now (i even wallpapered my apt room with the rejection letters) and to the comment about writing as an "art" form, I simply do not agree.
Jason - I'm not really attacking your writing, just the notion that certain writers think that either poems or other writing is "art" and call themselves "artists." I was actually talking about this with my publisher at the nuyorican in NY The other day, she said that writing isn't considered art now that the subject has been so faded. You are a writer. You are NOT an ARTIST.
The fact of the matter is that there has been an explosion of amateur writing during the past few years, and most of it is about either: love, sex, death, beauty, being hurt, blah blah blah. There is rarely any treatment of the subject themselves anymore (read up on your william carlos williams). Sometimes a rose is a rose is a rose is a rose is a rose is a FUCKING ROSE.
Spidermage is considered an artist because those drawings rock. And until you can write something that gives me the same image in my head, you're not an artist. You're just a writer. And until you can write something on the calibre of "Valentine" by Carol Ann Duffy, you're not a very good writer either. There are so many people out there that think they can write down some cliche ridden shit and call it art. Pathetic. And whats even worse is they think its the best shit in the fucking world - come on now, words sometimes just isn't as eyecatching.
edit: i forgot to add "religion" to the list. and it also bothers me that most new writers can only write about sad shit. imean alright, we get it. You are depressed and you have been nursing a past wound with bitterness. Get over yourself. I think it goes without saying that sad shit happens all the time. Its nothing special.
edit #2: Troll King I read your first chapter of your short story and it is very John Updikeish at best - and that could be a complement, depending on how you take it.Last edited by Bioture; 10-04-2004, 02:58 AM.TelCat> i am a slut not a hoe

wow dude
chill the fuck out
i don't think i'm the next kurt vonnegut
spidermage is a 'meh' at best
and most importantly, to each his own
actually, most importantly, i am so motherfucking sick of seeing folks who draw/paint/sculpt some shit and everyone goes 'ooooh' and 'aaahhh'. i pour just as much of myself into my writing as any "artist". and you know what, if only society didn't build this ladder where "artist" is a few rungs above "writer", then i wouldn't be so fucking bitter right now.jasonofabitch loves!!!!
