so i posted something. hooray. another image someone can fuck with without asking.

you know, no matter how much i fight, no matter who i talk to says: "sell your artwork" and i'm holding to: "no fucking way".

am i crazy?

ask my family: yes. every co-worker ever: yes: friends: yes. art instructors: yes. career advisers: yes.

FUCK NO.

i refuse.

refuse the offers. refuse the people who think i should. if it's art, it's not for sale. i deny that's it's a commodity. it's not part of consumer culture just because that has absorbed everything.

no.

you can't have it.

you can't buy what it means.

you can't even understand why i won't sell it. if you did, it wouldn't matter.
