I dont understand this so common obsession with “finding one’s own art style” and seeing inconsistent art style as a bad thing. When I see an artist whose art style varies from piece to piece I feel impressed, it’s really cool, I don’t understand why having One art style is seen as the only one true path of a Good Artist
“I wanna draw realistic but also cartoony but also with sharp shapes but also with round shapes, aaaagh I cant choose!!” You can do all yknow. It is allowed. Practicing all kinds of different things is actually pretty good
You know what I want? I want boys to stand up for themselves.
I want to see boys who wear fingernail polish the color of firetrucks and give people the finger when they say something sexist about it. I want boys who grow long ass hair and braid it and shit because they fucking can. I want boys to wear shorter shorts because fuck that knee-length shit. I want boys who wear provocative clothing because they like feeling sexy just like we do.
I want boys who interrupt conversations to remind misandrists that label themselves feminists that, just because there are rapists who are men, doesn’t mean men are rapists. I want boys that stop the tirade of hate raining down upon them just because they were born by reminding these women that they’re fighting against the same thing they’re doing, but vice versa.
I WANT IT TO BE SOCIALLY ACCEPTABLE FOR BOYS AND MEN TO STAND UP FOR THEMSELVES THE WAY WOMEN DO.
If you want to do something do it. I love penguins and always wanted to hug/touch one. My mom surprised me with a meet penguin encounter where I stepped inside a penguin exhibit and got face to face with a penguin.
DWUW Video It is late because, just like with the Applause video unfortunately, I was given a week to plan and execute it. It is very devastating for someone like me, I devote every moment of my life to creating fantasies for you. All my my most successful videos were planned over a period of time when I was rested and my creativity was honored. Those who have betrayed me gravely mismanaged my time and health and left me on my own to damage control any problems that ensued as a result. Millions of dollars are not enough for some people. They want billions. Then they need trillions. I was not enough for some people. They wanted more. I am very grateful to the photographers and designers who have always stood by me to make sure my fans are never aware of the things that happen behind the scenes, but unfortunately after my surgery I was too sick, too tired, and too sad to control the damage on my own. My label was not aware that this was going on. The next few months of ARTPOP will truly be its beginning. Because those who did not care about ARTPOP’s success are now gone, and the dreams I have been planning can now come to fruition. Please forgive me that I did not foresee this coming, I never thought after all the years of hard work that those I called friends and partners would ever care so little at a time I needed them the most. Give me a chance to show you the meaning of seeing art all around you. Open your hearts to me again that I may show you the joy of us coming together through our talents, that we are stronger as a unit than when we are alone. Let me be for you the Goddess that I know I truly am, let me show you the visions that have been in my mind for two years. I love you. Forgive me monsters. Forgive me ARTPOP. You are my whole world.“
