This…Is Actually Pretty Good Art.

And if you would have crafted the same article, the only real responses you would have expected to receive would be from internet grammar trolls. And maybe you mom, siding with the internet grammar trolls.

Here is the truth: many people producing bad art, literature, and science are more famous than you. Their fame precedes them, and so does their potential to gather audiences. Not the actual art they produce for those audiences.

It is not fair, but you should never stoop to the level of producing bad art for the sake of matching more popular artists who produce mostly bad art.
