after reading your uuh post about uuh artstyle copying? it made me think of a time me an my friend last year were really debating over a complete hypothetical… (if you died and one of us had the power to completely replicate and use your artstyle as it currently was.) if… we should, or if it would be offensive/disturbing your grave in some kind of way. Eventually i decided i wouldn't if the chance arose.. as i wouldn't know what to draw with your heavenly skill and it was probably.. like, a grave-raiding type thing.
perhaps when i refused it it would simply bounce off to another person/etc. not sure how the thing would work.. be it a huge blessing i think it might just evaporate if i don't take the offer- but.. like, you know.. hypotheticals.
we were also a little concerned about your wellbeing- but I'm happy to see u feeling better!! ^^
Was this hypothetical about me specifically when you were talking to your friend because that’s awesome
“Wanna talk about thaltro dying?” “Sure but let’s make it an interesting hypothetical” that makes me feel so happy
So when I die which I’ll be honest where I am right now can be not too far away, yeah if I emitted an orb of artstyle that you could have I wouldn’t care if you absorbed me. I mean I’m dead lol
I think artstyle isn’t just the looks of something, art needs to has writing behind it in some way. You could copy my art 1-1 and be able to make your own pieces. But the stories you tell with them will always be your stories. And I think that you-ness is what makes it your artstyle
So in my veiw once you absorb the orb and make your own art with your own mind, I don’t think it’s my artstyle anymore, because I’m not drawing it or conceiving it. And that’s ok I don’t really care if people “take” my artstyle
I respect it when people dislike artstyle theft because art is very personal to them. But to me I don’t give a single fuck about mine. You can draw just like me but i will notice things that just aren’t things I’d do. Really to fully steal my artstyle you’d have to let me possess you, I’d have to exist as apart of your soul trapped to make art for you.
I’m just weird, i know most artists would disagree and that’s ok.
Also to answer your question my wellbeing is pretty bad but like. Uh I’m not going to drop it on everyone here because that’d be predatory of me to share my emotions like that to vulnerable people I don’t know yk. But I appreciate your concern still
Good hypothetical, when I die you can do whatever you’d like with my hypothetical art spirit thingy anon
