——Artists are always libs.-——
I’m an artist (an illustrator), and I tell my girls, “Never marry an artist —they’re all nuts.”
It took a while, but eventually they picked up on the contradiction.
Anyway, here’s how it goes. The wackier the art, the crazier/more leftist the artist. Those who can, lean conservative.
I was once told, by a donk, that I could not be conservative because I am an artist.
I have made a living with art/craft since 1978. I have won awards. I have always paid taxes and my own health insurance, which is now my supplemental. I have been told my studio is too clean.
It is much more difficult to be considered an artist by liberals if you are either a realist or an artisan producing something functional.
