appropriating ideas from other artists

[hgiles]

1 "Talent borrows, genuises steal!"

2 "Imitate, assimilate, innovate!"

In other words COPY, so that you understand, then based on that heightened awareness and your own aesthetic, do something creative with it that makes it all your own.

Same way in music, or any of the other arts, too.

[G.Uristti]

art is the process of mimic. inspiration comes from everywhere. if you cant deal with being stolen from then dont show your work. if you cant deal with stealing than derive influence outside of tattooing.
