    I’m embracing gaucher and messier stuff in my graphic design work, because at a certain point it’s just my style and it’s not from a canva bot. Weird how like it took the slop-death of the internet to get some pride in my rougher edges

      Kind of makes me think about how the rise of abstract art was a reaction to the invention of cameras and other scientific advancement. We’re arguably already getting cool art in reaction to slop (eg, all of !unix_surrealism@lemmy.sdf.org), but hopefully it will inspire* even more

      * is inspiration even the right word when it’s rooted in disgust for slop? Oh well
