Blog | I Hate Artists

Please allow me to introduce myself, I’m a man of… well.. you know the rest.

I am the owner of IHateArtists.com. I may go into the meaning of that more later, I may not. The main reason I am writing this first is because I want to explain something right now; at the beginning of our relationship.

I am human.

You may read this and wonder; “what the fuck is this guy thinking? If he said he was a vampire zombie, does he think we would believe it blindly?”

That’s not what I mean. What I mean when I say that is I am a perfect being because I am imperfect; on Monday my opinion on a subject could be different than what it is on Friday. As a human, I am constantly growing, evolving, maturing; we all are. There’s a reason you don’t wear that stupid red and yellow hat with the pin-wheel on the top of it nowadays. It isn’t because you got “too old” for it; surely you have met someone who is 20+ years old who is way too into something society deems “immature.” One day you just decided that you didn’t like it any more.

Right now I am 22 years old. I have a full time job as a graphic artist for a world wide franchising company. So unlike a lot of “artists” online; I pay the bills with my art. My art puts food on my table.

Because of this, I get frustrated with art. I hate it, I love it; I embrace it, and I push it away. It is my lover, and it is my nemesis.

Please remember this when reading my posts. Remember that, as a human, I could change my mind about something at any moment. We are all human; we shouldn’t be expected to maintain 100% perfection.

This isn’t an excuse, by the way. I always want to be questioned on things. I am just explaining this right away so people don’t try to scream about how I like one aspect of art or dislike another. I’m a 22 year old “artist” and am a ball of mixed emotion, so be prepared if you are here.
