I was thinking about something geeky today. ... Don't I always? Anyway, I realized how effective anime is as artwork. Whether translating something from a movie or a television series, you find yourself marveling at how people create their own artistic editions of whatever comes to their minds.

Harry Potter Character Fan-Art
I usually hear art students, depending what school they're from, argue about how anime may or may not be "art." Oh... no... don't get me wrong, I won't get into that very sticky situation of arguing about that topic. I basically just want to talk about this animation phenomenon going around in our generation.
I find it interesting. I am a frustrated artist so I have this need to surround myself with artistic people, be it in traditional arts, digital arts, music, etc etc. I like creativity because I cannot produce anything creative at all! So, that's why I find this anime sensation going around quite giddy-ish and exciting!

It's mainly eye-candy, yes. BUT, it's a good way to get your imagination going!

Can you imagine what would happen if these artworks were part of the actual story? You can re-create your fandom in so many freaking ways! So many endless possibilities, all at the tip of your pencil, tablet or lead!
AHHHH! I am so jealous of people who can draw! But I applaud all you artists out there. Without you, I have nothing pretty to look at and I might not have any inspiration to write anything at all!

Til the next post, guys! Live long and prosper!
