VFX Art .... asking for money again?

Some stuff looks nice, though some is really crappy. It prob wont make big art galeries unless they are religious focussed I think.
Some of the respondes below the vid:

- Love your paintings! How might we go about buying one of, them? Also, what college are you attending? Forgive, me for asking, esp. if you have answered that question before. God bless!

- Whoa dude those are super good.Looks like you found a source for Ministry funding.,

- Both creative & expressive., All at the same time. How could you possibly be wrong. Art is what it is really...

- Wow Shawn you're incredibly talented...I love the Scarlet Spider painting! Are you selling that one?,

Anyway read the respondeses yourself. I was only thinking of this old video he put up 1-2 years ago, seeing him now put up his art on YT for some upcomming spring arts festival where he'll be selling his art.
Now he is saying it in disguise (in the video above) ... I need/want money. He is learning and adapting !
<< Yeah Shawn, YT has a memory.

A well, nothing wrong if you can earn money from art ... mmm drawings ... :) ... I wonder how much of it is going to that poor child hospital he told us about way back.

I kinda feel sorry for VFX. It seems as though his inner geek is dying to reach full potential, but is stifled by his religiosity.

He must be attending some sort of religious school though, for it to sanction him painting overtly religious themes on their walls.

As I admire those who seek means to find money, I persuaded to support VFX in this one. Good job! I hope this will keep him from youtube for awhile, and if not, I do hope it will distract him from his creationist vs. atheist nonsense. Therefore, if this allows him to eventually want to find work, do well in school, and ultimately a better member of society, great. ;)

Art, however, is not the best means to find money. >.<

That caused me to watch the video (without sound) (about half of it). And he really is pretty good. Not so great with people though, jesus looked a little like melted wax, but people are very difficult.

GODWIN!!!!!

Seriously though, if he must insist on funding his fundie nonsense then better he do it by selling his own work than scamming for donations like last time. Besides, fair play to him, the little guy has talent. Who knew?

If that's him before art school, he could certainly get away with professionally selling his pieces after he's had some more training.

p.s. hitler art wasn't bad, but it wasn't good either, his pieces were rather...well, I couldn't say mediocre because I can't draw or watercolor for anything, but, hm...it's something I'd hang on my wall to not have a bare wall but it's not something that really jumps out and 'grabs' you.

I don't see anything wrong with this. He's selling artwork in exchange for money. So what? It's not like he's saying 'I need money so I can make artwork' or 'I need money for art supplies,' both which are essentially donations since the payer doesn't get anything him/herself.

I like the colours, but Hitler's works had no sense of depth. They all seem flat. You feel like you're looking at it, as opposed to being in it.

They lack... soul

like the bastard who painted them

You didn't actually read any of the posts did you? Everyone agrees with you and no one scolded VFX for e-begging. We don't automatically attack those who disagree with us on some points for their behavior in other contexts, nor support those we agree with in all they do. We shall leave that kind of myopic judgment to you and other petulant children who assume the worst in all who don't agree with narrow interpretations of ancient texts.

You may also, as you persist in your obsessive and perfunctory perusing of past posts, discover that many of us have expressed annoyance at T-f00t for what some would consider e-begging. Your implicit indictment of hypocrisy is incorrect, sir, and an apology for your accusation would go a long way in redeeming your consistently degenerating reputation on this forum.

His intro is insanely funny, all the more so because I think he's serious with it...

READ WHAT IS BEING POSTED WITHOUT YOUR GLASSES OF INFINITE BIAS.

If you had paid attention instead of reading the first post and then losing the power of sight, you would see that most of us had said "Yeah, kid's got some skills. Good luck to him". Then it transpired that he is basically copying other peoples work, in which case he's a hack.

In short; He has talent, at least he isn't making money by selling evangelising nonsense, but he's a rip-off merchant.

Pay attention.
