AI generated stuff is kind of doing that, for better and for worse. If it could make beautiful art, without stealing from artists or replacing the human element, that would be awesome.
But we humans are in the 3d realm. Something is meant to motivate us so much-a dream or vision-that we have to try to translate that mental image into something on paper or marble. And we have to get better at our physical and mental discipline of drawing, to express something emotional and spiritual.
Cuz it's not always about the destination. Sometimes it's about the journey.
Do you know that's the difference between art and entertainment?
Entertainment is sensual. Carnal. It appeals to you from the outside in.
But art...art is you trying to translate something deeper into something everyone can see. It can be offensive or unpleasant, as it's goal is not to immediately appeal to the ego or the senses, but express something more, through the medium of *you*.
