An Illustration of 31 Classical Art Memes That Paint Funnies in a Portrait

Artist’s block is one of those things that comes and goes without warning, and you have to find creative ways to deal with it. The longest I have ever gone with writer’s block (which is similar, just minus the painting) was probably about 4 years. Does that mean I did not write during those 4 …

The Week’s Best Classical Art Memes for High Brow Chuckler (November 12, 2023)

One of my favorite pieces of art is Nighthawks by Edward Hopper, the 1942 painting of patrons at a diner on an empty city street. It’s beautifully moody and evocative, and you can imagine the subjects’ stories vividly, even though on the surface, so little information is given. I always like to imagine that the …

Art Teacher Destroys Students Sculpture Trying to “Improve It”

Art can be a difficult subject to teach because there’s not technically a «right» or «wrong» way to do it. A lazy student can show up to art class, put no effort into their work, and claim that their low-effort piece came out exactly how they intended it to. That’s the oldest trick and the …

40+ Classical Art Memes for High Brow Chucklers

One of life’s greatest pastimes is going to a fine art museum, finding a centuries-old portrait of someone looking a lil’ ugly, pointing to it, and saying to your friend, «You.» Is that dilettante-ish and amateur?

Dude Lives the Dream After Buying Bread Artwork From Closing Down Subway for $25

I’m just going to come out and say it: a lot of people have the most boring taste when it comes to home décor. I don’t know what it is about color palettes that exclusively consist of gray, white, and beige that screams «homely» to so many, but it doesn’t always translate well. While I …

The definition of art is something that’s tricky to pinpoint. Personally, I’m inclined to take a more liberal approach — I don’t think that any of those jerks who scoff that they could paint that minimalist painting are actually right.
