• Question About Artistic Morals
  

  [quote WashuChan]This is a really hard question…. Maybe it is in regards to selling? Like Plagerism?[/quote]
  
  No I don’t mean for selling purposes. Allot of people are getting into copyright infringment, so I think I need to clear things up a bit.
  
  I’m not talking about legally or government approved allowances.
  Its a difficult subject to explain since my mind is so muddled up about it. But then if it wasent i wouldent be asking all this lol.
  
  I mean on a scale of MORALS.
  whats right in your opinion. whats wrong.
  A highschool student painting a picture of a totem pole for a school mural for diversity…but not being native american…morally right? or morally wrong?
  
  going onto google in your OPINION (not based on copyrights) and pulling a picture to use and edit in a PAINTING. (which yes is valid in the copyright sense as long as its not a painting of a branded image IS technically allowd since making it a painting is a form of creative alteration…but this is waaay off subject)
  
  THOUSANDS of painters do this everyday to make scenerys of places they have never been or of animals they have never seen. So many moral complications D;

• I am worried—
  

  what I do to calm down is get a pint of cookie dough ice cream, whipped cream and choco sauce and veg in front of a compelling movie for a few hours.
  remember that people who are calm before an exam are able to retain more information :)

• apparently i am the most annoying person in the world.
  

  the harshest words are those said in the heat of anger. Maybe you were pushing him to far, it could just be he was set to offline because he had nothing he wanted to say or was having a hard time at that moment emotionally. Its possible he said those things in an attempt just to have you leave him alone and possibly may feel really bad about it. Arguing online is never the way to go. try having a heart to heart.

  [quote 03cammd79]I think i might have had a very ‘diluted’ version of your problem. Have you tried music or photography, there both very creative but in a different way… it kind of worked for me, i just had to keep alternating what i was doing, writing, art, photography then music. I know that i didnt develop as fast by doing this but it gave me somthing to do creativitiy-wise and it helped me alot mentaly.[/quote]
  
  i think thats a teriffic way to help yourself along. I do love taking pictures. :) Thanks i’ll give it a shot as soon as my camera gets fixed. lol.

  [quote Peekay]I know what you mean, man. Same thing is happening to me right now. I just finished high school today… er, yesterday. As a matter of fact, I may very well be going insane before my very eyes. But just push forward with the incentive that you can always take what you get and change / manipulate it as you please to your advantage.[/quote]
  
  but is it really morally validatable to edit an image for your painting purposes? D;
