Sometimes I get ideas for artwork that, after I think about it for awhile, isn’t worth my time to start and complete. It’s usually because the idea or “joke” so to speak is too simplistic. And, I’ve realized, creating an entire artwork would be overkill. Enter the meme. Yes, these types of Internet images are essentially throwaways, but it is an interesting to get an idea out quick. The Kanye thing has obvioulsy being beaten to death recently, but they can be pretty funny. I guess my “artisitc integrity” prevents me from getting involved with too many of them, but it makes me wish I could find a way to work on an artwork a day or something to that effect. So, I can get those simple ideas out and done. Oh well, just some of my thoughts…
