# About me
Im a new guy on the block, finished my study in graphic design but find it very boring and strict, decided to do digital painting becuz painting is wat I like, still slowly learning my ways around since Im currently in South Africa and we hav very little digital art community / good mentors here, kind of need to learn everything on my own, hence progress is slow, but step by step surely I wil get somewhere one day...other than painting, I practice martial art extensively, play games heavily and study philosophy constantly, I feel a connection in everything I do, as how I wil strike and block my target in combat is no different from how I compose my layout and lay down the strokes and colours for my painting, nor does it differ from the philosophies I study, everything seem to b abt the tension and balance between the polar extremes, constantly shifting, contrasting and harmonizing

To Infernomonster even though he most likely wont read this :
Sorry to disappoint u kid, but I jus spoke to Kekai via email yesterday, apperantly he doesnt think I plagiarised his work, sure I was influenced and inspired by that painting of his, but that and plagiarism aint the same thing.
Yes I didnt "giv a !@#$" to change the composition, but that along with the overall theme is wat strike me the most, and being my first attempt at painting such subject matter, I decided to use those as guide lines, but everything else I made an efford to create my own. Why don u go look at my second attempt at this genre and tell me who did I plagiarise this time?
And please keep in mind that I did not come here to pretend to be some great artist, Im jus simply sharing the pieces that I hav done, I don expect u to accept my work nor do I want to, if u don like it then don visit my page, but please get ur definition on the word "plagiarism" correct first before bashing people with it.

I dono where u got this idea from, or where u learnt the definition of "copying artwork", but u really should at least try to get ur facts straight before insulting people.
I hav jus spoken with Kekai over email yesterday, asking his opinion on this matter, sending him that artwork of mine, and he doesnt think it classify as copying or plagiarism, sure I was inspired by his painting and decided to try something similar, but that and "copying artwork" are two very different things.
So I suggest u apologize for the rude comment and instead of finding people to flame online, rather spend the time and improve ur own skills.

However I did what I did without thinking of what I was doing because I actually hate art thiefs, I'm not really sorry.
Is it trully that hard for you to just imagine a battlefield?
Therefore, I won't apologise.
Enjoy drawing anime, not that anime is art anyway.

So u do things without actually thinking or knowing wat u doing? seriously man is that even a valid excuse? Sure u can hate art thiefs all u like, but u see the problem is Im not actually an art thief, even the original author who u accuse me of stealing from doesnt think Im stealing from him, and yet u can stil insist that I stole from him? this is a very funny logic u got there.
Is it really that hard to imagine a battlefield? yes it is for me, becuz that was my first attempt at painting something with that theme, I wanted some kind of guideline so I know wat am aim for, its jus like if u wana paint human u gotta use guidelines of a real human figure first, don tell me u paint figures out of ur own head since the first time.
And wats up with the hate for anime? and who are u to say wat is art? hav u even studied art history and know wat postmodern masters has been saying abt the definition of art? please don be so ignorant especially on a site abt art, and btw why would I enjoy drawing anime anyway, beside my old storyboard do u even see much anime here? seriously ur logic is amusing.

Still laughing at your face.
Post scriptum:
I know a fucking lot about art history.
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
and btw u can laugh all u want, its ur freedom, jus like how a loony has the right to laugh at Hawking, but it doesnt make u right or legit.
I am actually really surprised at how coward and unreasonable u are, I at least had the decency to ask for Kekai's opinion before defending myself, u on the otherhand refuse to admit u made a false accusation at all, well eventually one of these days u might find out that even if u don admit it, u wil still be required to answer for ur mistakes.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
really? then please explain how is anime not part of art? and furthermore, wat does anime has to do with me?
the thing is, u think u "know" art history is different to u actually knowing art history.

I study art history, for 3 years now actually.
Anime, in my honest opinion isn't art because there is now realism.
Stop being such a little offended girl about this.
Get a life, thief.

oh that thing abt "little girl" u got the wrong way round, all Im doing now is defending my rights like any other normal person would do in a democratic society, there is no gender difference when it comes to a person's rights, thus defending it doesnt dictate ur gender. However on the other hand, most societies around the world would agree that a quality of a man includes owning up for his mistakes, and since u cannot do jus that, u are much closer to a little girl than I ever could. Btw hope the english and logic is not too hard for u to understand, if it is indeed to hard then u hav my apologies as I cannot put it in simpler words.

Im really surprised that after 3 years of study, u stil don hav a clue as to the definition of art, sure if u were looking from renaissance era, they wouldnt classfy anime as art, but since the postmodern movement, the definition to wat is art has been changed dramatically, if u missed that part at school I suggest u go back and read up on it before talking, even great masters are no longer certain abt the exact definition of art, and yet u think u can define it? wat a joke, except it isnt really entertaining.
and wat does "Anime, in my honest opinion isn't art because there is now realism. " even mean? u dono proper english grammer?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
you say 3 years in art history, and u cant even form a strong and legit argument? how do u even write ur thesis? do u laugh out loud at ur teacher too when u got no valid things to say? how is that passing u so far? and on top of that, ur understanding to art stil remain in the renaissance era, which should hav already been covered in the first year's work, so chances are u either jus bluffing abt ur study or its high school art class, which doesnt amount to anyting at all,
u should really do urself a favor, go back to ur teacher and ask him/her abt postmodern art definition, and while u at it, show him/her my painting and ask if that classify as thiefing, although given ur integrity, I doubt u would admit anything even if ur teacher says otherwise, but maybe next time u wil think twice before handing out these accusations to others.

You're a filthy art thief plagaryzing the work of other artists by simply painting over. you don't even give enough of a fuck to change the composition.
Example of shit you've painted over can be found here:[link]

I'm new to this place so Im stil trying to figure things out, btw I checked out ur poems, unfortunately English is my second language so I hav little understanding to english poem, almost failed poetry in back in high school, so I wont b able to fully appreciate ur poems, but they sounds great, jus wont know the hidden meanings or spot the play of words

no prob, on the other hand I'n quite into chinese classic poetry, which I believe is quite different from english litrature, I noticed that modern poetry don really hav to rhyme, which is a very critical part of chinese poetry,in every 4 sentence, the first 2 and last 1 need to rhyme, not the third sentences though, and this format is repeated no matter how long the poem goes, also each sentence consist of the exact same amount of words, there are also loser formats, where at least every 2 sentence need to hav the same amount of words and rhyme together, this is a refection of the cultural influence of Yin/Yang, everything works in pairs, I do enjoy language in general, jus that I had a very annoying english teacher that really made me hate the subject, so how do comtempory poem work?

Hi! Well to tell you the truth I never learn poetry, I just write what comes to my mind, and that's all.
That's why it doesn't look anything like any other poem, and also it doesn't have any kind of specific rules to follow.
If you want to learn more about how I write my poems, I invite you to read the notes on my poems, and listen to my podcast at [link] where I explain everything!
