This is a blog that concerns the somewhat style of shock art. I have had alot of people say that my art is shock art , which is not even close (believe me, if I wanted to shock people, I could paint some gruesome subjects!) I chose surrealism and dealing with social and political issues sometimes makes it that I have to incorporate harsh and not so pleasent subjects in my work. An artist needs to paint a style he or she feels good about, but not paint just to freak people out. Good art is suppose to get a reaction from the audience, good or bad, but not created just to shock or disturb people. I enjoy almost all styles of art and can tell if an artist is true to their style. There are some styles that I feel are not considered art, but thats my opinion and personal preference. Paint what you feel and enjoy and if shock art makes you happy, then go ahead and waste your time, because real art patrons can see right through it.
