Thread: Fuck yeah.

August 31st, 2008 #1
Fuck yeah.
CA, This is how I personally feel about my art. In all it's mediocrity.
And you should too, with your own art.
Most of the times I draw stick figures.
Fuck yeah.
I'm horrible at drawing women, but still do it.
Fuck yeah.
I draw the most random stuff everyday, just because of an overreaching inferiority complex.
Fuck yeah.
I'm a lazy bastard.
Fuck yeah.
This picture I'm gonna do right now is gonna suck, but I'm gonna do it anyways, just to see how bad it's gonna look.
Fuck yeah.
I may do something REALLY good maybe once a month, but then I completely screw it up once I color it.
Fuck yeah.
I love art.
Fuck yeah.
why the constant "fuck yeah's"??? Because for me, this retardedly optimistic energy about making art really helps in washing away virtually EVERY SINGLE anxiety in making art. At least for me.
Example: Let's say for example, you made a drawing. You really did try your best. Except; it's a failure. It's bad. Very, very bad. Horrendous.
Your drawing, is now awesomely horrendous. It's so bad, it's good! Godly. Epic.
Now, with this backwards concept, bad drawings are amazing. It's all failsafe. They're the gifts of god to the lower man. I don't fear drawing Anything anymore, because I know, it's gonna be frickin' amazing. Whether it's going to be amazingly awful, amazingly mediocore, or surprisingly amazingly good, it's gonna be epic. No matter how it turns out, and no matter how many and how long you do it, it's still going to be amazing.
So what? so Now... after toiling away at epic mediocrity, through hours...days...weeks...months...years......Somethi ng Surprises you.
You've suddenly made something genuinely amazing. It looks as if it's been blessed by the Gods and Goddesses. The heavens have smiled upon you and the angels and various heavenly creatures all rejoice in your creation. You say to yourself-
HOLY FUCK. I DID THAT??
Fuck yeah.
In your exuberance and joy, you decide to make another one. This one, you decided, will be the one. It will be so amazing, so beautiful, so legendary, so epic, that God himself will bow down to you. Grown men will weep before your mastery. The universe will tremble with your greatness.
And it turned out to be the most overwhelmingly dissapointingly horrid thing to have ever graced the earth. God wept, but not in joy. Plants shriveled up and died by it's mere stench. Babies and kittens cried in its presence.
Fuck yeah.
Crackpot philosophy? Maybe.
A good read? I hope so.
Waste of time? tell me if it was.
Motivational? Tell me if it is.
Do I really believe this? most of the time.
Is this why you love art?
Fuck yeah.
This is in response to the general "lack of motivation" and unusually negative threads, by responding with a "fuck yeah" very annoyingly positive attitude.

August 31st, 2008 #7Fuck yeah.
Glad I could help.
I wasn't even thinking about the song. But that song is exactly what I'm talking about. Annoyingly positive. Fuck yeah.
It just so happens that "fuck yeah" is one of the most powerful statements in the english language for something when someone feels so overwhelmingly orgasmic. I was not thinking of this particular meme at the time of writing, but the the orgasmic quality that particular man in your link is displaying, parallels the orgasmic quality of making art.
And in all honesty, once you tire of the phrase "fuck yeah" You may substitute it with equally strong statements of powerful meaning.
hell yeah.
oh my god.
bitichin.
badass.
very nice.
I approve.
and so on.
But really guys, in all honesty, I wasn't expecting to be thanked so quickly in such a short time. I mean, Elwell???Freaking ELWELL!Dave, maoi, and all of you greats... If that's not the best stamp of approval you can get, I don't know what is. Fuck yeah.

August 31st, 2008 #10Haha I'm always one for looking on the bright side of things, and this is a good approach
got a nice late night smile from it as well, thanks for the read!

Definitely. The thing I love with this is...it spreads. Like wildfire. Hopefully it does here too. If i'm excited about making something, and am eager to share it, it shows. hopefully, other people are then inspired/motivated to their own thing and share it too, to get that awesome feed back in return. It's an awesomely vicious cycle if you get into it with a lot of people - and they're just as hyper as you are.
I'm glad I could make someone smile over the internet. ;D

September 2nd, 2008 #24Haha, that first post made me laugh out loud. Not very inspiring and I don't really think you'll improve with that kind of attitude, but it was funny.
And I like your avatar.
September 2nd, 2008 #25fuck yeah!!!
I haven't said "fuck" for god only know how long...But here it is, and again!
FUCK YEAH!
you're the man!
September 4th, 2008 #26Rock on brother. Don't die on me though.
Awesome.
Not inspiring?
But you thought it was funny, and you like my avatar, so you're still awesome.
No, you're the man, for thinking I'm the man.
Fuck yeah.
Okay...I might be just spamming this now...since I have nothing more to add..I'll stop bumping it till something comes up that I need to address....I'll admit though, this is my first successful thread in any forum.

And really, fuck yeah, that's funny. It keeps making me laugh, just because of the 'lol' at the beginning. I'm not racist or anything, my friends on here are Asian. Man, that's funny. Fuck yeah.
