Artcow Ariella Elovic (arelovic) & The Cheeky Blog - A true story about periods, poop, and discovery of self.

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
I agree that the thought of the week of cheese and farts is gross. No wonder her roommate of many years moved to another country. I am surprised she lasted that long. Then again, if her drawing is accurate, that is one weird, poop-centric group of women.

This is what is wrong with art. These "artists" have no technical skill and couldn't draw a realistic teapot to save their life. Don't take my word for it take, just look at what Richard Willams (Director of Who Framed Roger Rabbit) had to say on the issue in in 2001.

Next some artist will have to draw historical women sleeping, eating, and remembering to breathe. Hell let's just draw all women doing normal mundane things and then autistacally screech about how amazing they are for doing it. This is why participation awards and consolation prizes were a mistake.
Think that https://www.squattypotty.com/intellectual-property/ might want to send her a cease and desist about using the term Squatty Potty, because it is definitely shitting up their brand.

The issue goes back further and the art market drove it rather than spoiled wanna-be artist rich kids, who’ve always been around. But he’s dead on about real skills no longer being taught in art school.

Art rant
If you look at the beautiful hyper realism oil paintings of the late 19th century you are looking at paintings that took months to produce. There were years long waiting lists to commission paintings from works the top artists, basically the demand was far greater than the supply.

Enter some of the first modern art (and I’m a big fan of early and mid-20th abstract art) that gained attention. You suddenly had art that didn’t take months and workshop of several apprentices to produce. You had art one person could produce sometimes several paintings in a week. The art dealers saw a solution to their demand > supply problem and had real incentive to promote modern art.

Also the invention of photography started killing the demand for portraits of rich patrons that had been the bread and butter of artists for centuries. Along with the eventual breakdown of the apprentice system which had trained the best artists going back to the Roman Empire.

Now these early modern art painters were mostly trained artists. Check out Picasso early works, he could produce gorgeous realistic paintings so they had the talent, mastered the rules and then decided to change them. And in defense of modern art you can only look at so many paintings of young, beautiful or rich people in beautiful surroundings so many times without getting really fucking bored.

The problem was so many people looked at modern art and thought “I can do that” when for decades much of it was far more skilled than the average joe could understand. But after decades of modern art being pushed and the limits being pushed further to do something “new” things got out of hand. The skills and talent that was part of the foundation of most pre-1960 modern artist started being lost and new artists didn’t think they needed to bother with what had been core foundational skills.

Now you have the mega rich using art as financial instruments and investments to store or move vast sums of money and shield it from taxes.

All this has pushed the art world away from real skills and instead created a world where coming up with the next “new thing” to sell to the market is the goal. But very very rarely do the artists get to enjoy riches while alive, the big wigs of the art market like their artists dead and a finite number of works in the market to ensure control and ROI.

Why do a prevalent number of women artists focus on disgusting shit that nobody wants to see nor cares about (this lolcow), or are so narcissistic they focus entirely on themselves (i.e. frida kahlo)? A woman is my art hero, and these hacks do nothing but take away from the real female artists who contribute great works to society.

Primary school kids produce better art than this woman, and people like, give Elovic a pat on the head for drawing garbage and corpophiliac artwork?

This is not progress, rewarding people for making such art is regression.

Because they are pampered and treated better for being women. Every time you see a woman doing so disgusting thing in the name of feminism, change the sex and you'll see it truly for what it is.

In this case, if a man made bad poop art and ate blocks of cheese while farting, he would have an Encyclopedia Dramatica article instead of from Buzzfeed.

Exactly! I'm glad we're giving Elovic the type of attention she really deserves now: mockery, disgust, and morbid curiosity.
