Frustrations of an Artist and the Inefficacy of a Bureaucracy
I was sharing the camp t-shirt design with Bernice just now and it kinda rekindled my disgust with the way things were handled.
Now that I think about it, it was a simple matter. If a t-shirt printer cannot print realistic-looking, transparent, fading, 3D designs (i.e. flames), then the artist can always make it a 2D, more cartoonish design that will STILL bring out the same idea. But when the decision is not up to the artist and the management wants a realistic design that cannot be printed, well guess what? The result is an insult to the artist because it will totally not turn out to be anything the artist imagined.
I mean, if a painter doesn't have the right (dark) colors to paint a moody scene, for example, then the next best alternative is to use a pencil to shade a black and white drawing, instead of trying to use bright reds and bright yellows and bright oranges to try and make a dark scene. That'd be plain stupid and the result will not be anything worth painting to begin with.
If you don't have the budget, then compromise with a different design!
I don't wanna blabber on anymore. I heard from Pamela that the t-shirt was an ugly bright green. Well, what can I say? *shrugs*
Love me
