I posted this in the DA Morgue poll but I thought this was too good to not put here. I'm tired and feel like making fun of stuff. Here's a quick summary of the main archetypes on DA. Enjoy.

And if anyone gets offended, it just means you're guilty of being one of these -

Traditional Artist: "oh hey guys, just minding my own business doing things the old fashioned way. Oh by the way I learned all this on my own, it's actually a natural talent I was born with. Oh you don't do traditional then you're not a REAL artist. Did Da Vinci have a computer. Have fun being a video game artist you hack."

Digital Artist: "We're the wave of the future. This world is going all digital. Plus look how good I am. See how marketable digital painting is, everyone loves it since it looks so life like. I mean I can sort of draw, I'm actually not too great but with a tablet I'm an art god. Look at this quick sketch...oh crap hold on...ctrl z...ok NOW look at it, see I'm sooooo good."

Cartoonist: "Well, I was never too into realism. Honestly I suck at it. But I can mess with proportions. Look at all of my wacky characters, aren't they so original?"

Manipulator: "I just love stock photos. They really allow me to get my creative juices flowing. It's not just cut and paste, this takes a real artists eye. Too bad I'll never finish this last piece though, I can't find the right pic on Google. Oh well. Maybe I should learn to draw...naaaah."

Writers: "so im writing this book...its about this guy whos last of his kind...and he has amnesia...and hes a soldier. he falls in love with a gilr but then she like dies and hes full of anger and like kills a bunch. then theres aliens and stuff. um lets see...eah right im really good at like writing talking parts you know dielog or whatev. and then they all die but the main dude zack he dosnt. but it turns out he was the aliens see theres a twist. im a good writer."

Sculptors: "FUCK OFF I'm working."

Photographers: "See what I tried to capture with my subject is the stark juxtaposition between inherent beauty and the mechanic nature that surrounds our senses on a daily basis. By having her spread her legs and present her vagina amid a myriad of machines I am able to show that my artistic intent is to convey an underlying beauty not seen in...you're not buying this huh? Well I do have an entire gallery of black and white photos of people making really bad emotional faces. I also have a gallery of macro flower shots. I hope you like high contrast, it's all I really know how to shoot."

Critics: "Oh I love how you captured the sense of entanglement and fear in the character. Your art really shows that you have a true understanding of your area. I give 5 out of 10 stars. Can you check out my gallery? :bullshit: "

So...did I just about sum up all of DA?
