Since I have a big abstract painting of a demonhunter, I just wonder what you all think about abstract art.
Since the drawings that gets the best votings here, are the typical fantasy-realistic (drawings that look realistic, but the characters look horribly perfect), I doubt that people here appreciate abstract.
So I want to hear, what do you think and feel about art that isn't fantasy-realistic?

for one, i dont mind abstract

but i hate (and i mean HATE) looking at paintings, mostly because modern "art" is just designer names. its (no joke) a solid blue line across a white canvas. it sold for over a million dollors.

art? thats not art. this is art:

well, that's renessaince art. realistic. but the story behind that painting is interesting.

so this isn't art then?

the thing about modern art is that it is about ideas, not so much about making something perfect.

but i'll guess i'll reconsider posting my demonhunter-pic here.
