Art comes from the artist not the tools.

Zero dollars on pencils but not zero dollars on supplies. Bro had to buy matches, ketchup, fries, a brush, a bowl, those green plants, and tooth paste

The left side is a phenomenal exercise in “improvise, adapt, overcome,” and can be even a champion of “biodegradable entropic art,” given that the composition is based on temporary materials. It’s essentially like an ice sculpture. On the flip side, if art is to be enduring, use the appropriate tools and mediums.

@GigiStratton The $0 side will be brown in a few days. The pencil side will keep its color for centuries.

Fun trick on the left, but the right def looks better

True, but some tools are better than others.

How much where the art classes?

that meant something pre-AI, now skills do not matter as much as it did.

The only $0 item on the left side was the grass, and even that was prepared in a mortar and pestle that definitely cost more than $0. Resourceful but still very disingenuous.

so the morale of the story is I should get $300 pencils.

$0 pencils are the only option after the Grinch comes through Christmas morning. AND THEN WE MEMORIALIZE HIM

Nice. Who ever thinks it comes from the tools, umm, well yikes.

So what you're saying is, this phrase applies to artists too.

I think it proves the point that it’s the artist that matters, not the materials. A good enough artist can use anything and the best materials in the world won’t make a poor artist a lot better.

Aint no way bro made art with a french fry

While I understand the concept shown here, that $0 side is definitely not $0 Also explains why my dog kept licking the painting I got

The ketchup and toothpaste will smell and might even rot after a while, the $300 pencils won’t.

Yeah, but I'm going to keep complaining about Ai so that strangers on the internet think I'm cultured and creative

AI is a tool

Hate to say it but the $300 pencils obviously performed better & yielded higher quality art.

@aaintme

There should be a slur to describe anyone that pays $300 for pencils

@BudTheArtGuy1 But the artist obviously has more control with the actual supplies lol

The video in its entirety is low grade. Look at his hands, look at the word “pencils”. That alone is going to make the distinction much harder.

Agreed: Art 👉 the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination, typically in a visual form such as painting or sculpture, producing works to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power...per Oxford Languages.

Where can I get free fries??

Matches: $0.97 Mortar and pestle: $6.89 Paint brush: $2.52 Toothbrush and Toothpaste: $1.50 Fries (crispy) Frozen: $3.97 Ketchup: $0.98 Sir that would be: $16.83 (excluding taxes) Or you could just buy a cheap crayola colour pencil set for $2.17

@agitadorprestes

In medias res

There’s clearly a difference especially with the red

I dare you to achieve the same effect with Crayola colored pencils.

Which piano should I buy if I wanna play like Mozart?

What an artistic way to say you've been to jail...

Smelly art comes from the artist without tools. That picture is gonna stink like rotting grass and old ketchup.
