Fruits


"By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad fruit cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus by their fruit you will recognize them." -Jesus Christ
-
To the shock-artists, and the neoclassicists, the modernists, and the digitalists; to the crafty-people, the graffiti bombers, the muralists, and the Impressionists; to the house painters, the oil painters, the portrait artists, and the caricaturists. To the sketch-artists, the professionals, the non-professionals and the Baroque.
-
If your artwork defines you, how are you presenting yourself to the world?
-
To the animators and contemporary, to the cartoonists and the fantasy, to the Surrealists and the Anime and the landscape artists; to the conceptual designers, the set designers, and the etch artists, to the futurists, the face-painters, the graphic artists, and the really graphic artists; to the drafters, to the Pointillists and the Minimalists, to the Art Deco, the Post-Impressionists and the Dadaists;
-
This is your mark on the world. Mark it well.
-
To the Expressionists, the Op artists and the Pop artists, the modern abstractionists, and the cave drawers:
-
What you produce reflects what you are.
Make a mark. Show yourself strong.
-
I’m not trying to preach at you, and this isn’t about religion. Art is above that. This is about what you do as an artist.
