from a friend (sharing this way cuz some wont be able to see it otherwise) ashley Nicole: The extent to which people fear what they dont understand is astounding. I find it so profound the way some business/technology-minded people are made deeply uncomfortable by those of us with artistic intellect. Some of them reject us so vehemently that its not even always deliberate....sometimes it seems more subconscious, as if it were ingrained into them...the way racism or homophobia may be in others. I am always sad for these people that not only do they refuse to try to understand things and people who think, act, speak, create, etc. differently than them, but that they are so ignorant of just how much they may learn from us. This has been my rant for today. and comments: Julie Peterson Oh, Ashley Nicole, I have experienced this! They either think we dont know how to work hard or theyre afraid we have secret persuasive art powers. Ashley Nicole Haha! Art powers! Exactly! I mean.....for all intents and purposes, we do, but its as if they think we will use our powers to hurt them. D: sorry for the long post, but I wanted everyone to see this and know that : WHY YES! we artists do have EVIL ART POWERS! watch your kids around artists!
