I think when certain imagery starts to saturate the market people can get tired of seeing it, but that means nothing for the artist in terms of what they are creating. Remember when the howling coyote was the rage?! the problem is commercial rip off artists see what creative souls are doing, see that it's resonating with people and then they send their imitations to China to be stamped out on every imaginable thing that can be bought and it's no wonder - people get tired of seeing it! But universal symbols are universal symbols, and eventually they will fall to the wayside in terms of commercialism, and artists will be let off the hook! If wings are what tell your story, then let them fly, I say!! Of course, this is simply one woman artists opinion :)Karin Bartimolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13490920503677450338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3755496103593755478.post-10262389649318689842009-03-12T23:39:00.000-04:002009-03-12T23:39:00.000-04:00I think we should just create what (and how) we wa...I think we should just create what (and how) we want and not worry about what others think:) thanks for that post, and thanks for the comment on my post (about my son getting older) I think I feel a little better just writing about it, but it is so hard to let go. <BR/>have a great weekend and hope to chat again soon!<BR/>TrishAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3755496103593755478.post-28303625386566777922009-03-12T19:51:00.000-04:002009-03-12T19:51:00.000-04:00Thank you Patti for exploring this issue a bit fur...Thank you Patti for exploring this issue a bit further and for pointing out the truth of the matter--who is to really decide when enough is enough??? The world is big enough to hold all of our ideas, art, desires, truths, elements, and symbols without interfering with a dang thing :) Whether meaningful or fun or a combination of both--let's just all keep doing what we love to do, and that is create :)Jodi Ohlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17051065416287643076noreply@blogger.com
