If I were to make an Art kinja blog

"Denver Is Stuck In The 90s" (denver80222)
08/06/2014 at 17:17 • Filed to: Art Blog

Meaning one that involves all types of art: Sculpture, drawing, painting, photography, model building, cooking, design, music, movies, Photoshops/digital sketches, really anything that can be created from scratch.

Would there be support from anybody here? Would anybody want to have authorship? Would anybody want to be a mod? Its not necessarily a subblog of anything, but I know there are alot of photographers, artists, designers and model builders here, so I thought I'd ask.

I would be in to post stuff and help out/mod.

I am mostly into digital illustrations and photography.

Would love to see this, though I have no artistic abilities and so wouldn't have much to contribute beyond my appreciation.

I'd like author status just so I can ask stupid questions to people who have skillz.

thats perfectly fine, I just want a place on kinja where all things remotely artistic can congregate. Anything from your own art, to art news, event posting, art purchases, etc...

Thats perfectly fine, This blog would be the link between all the other kinja art blogs. Everything artistic is welcome

One topic that would interest me would be how people got into their art, like how you learned to draw, sculpt, whatever you do. Something I'm really curious about.

Denver Is Stuck In The 90s > NotUnlessRoundIsFunny
08/06/2014 at 17:50

Is that a possible topic discussion idea, or are you asking me

Turbo666 > Denver Is Stuck In The 90s
08/06/2014 at 17:50

Cool, It sounds like a great idea, that I am surprised doesn't already exist. Let's do this, I'm on the computer from 8-5 monday thru friday (Graphic designer), so can put some time in.

NotUnlessRoundIsFunny > Denver Is Stuck In The 90s
08/06/2014 at 17:52

Possible discussion idea, and your story would be a great example.

Denver Is Stuck In The 90s > NotUnlessRoundIsFunny
08/06/2014 at 17:53

It would I may have it be the first, so I wont spoil it for you

Turbo666 > NotUnlessRoundIsFunny
08/06/2014 at 17:53

That would be a great post/topic!

NotUnlessRoundIsFunny > Denver Is Stuck In The 90s
08/06/2014 at 17:55

Cool. Also, please put me down for an authorship request.

Crocket Bernet > Denver Is Stuck In The 90s
08/06/2014 at 17:56

But seriously how do you guys make perfect free hand circles?

NotUnlessRoundIsFunny > Turbo666
08/06/2014 at 17:56

I thought so! There's a lot of diverse talent on Oppo and there are surely some great stories.

Denver Is Stuck In The 90s > NotUnlessRoundIsFunny
08/06/2014 at 17:58

Already have you down, I dont wanna do it without an authorship base. so I want at least 10 authors to start out and 3 mods. I dont want it to start out dead like the photography blog did, and I want it to have a similar community vibe to oppo

Denver Is Stuck In The 90s > Crocket Bernet
08/06/2014 at 17:58

Practice, lots of boring, grueling practice

I wouldn't mind being an author. I used to draw a lot. Now I just sketch/doodle on the side.

We now have 8, 2 more to go, and one more mod

phenotyp > Denver Is Stuck In The 90s
08/06/2014 at 18:01

Sure, I'm game. Done a lot of the things you're describing.

Turbo666 > NotUnlessRoundIsFunny
08/06/2014 at 18:01

Exactly Its really cool to see how people view thing differently and the stories behind it. On that note, photo contest could be fun also. I'm part of a photo club and we have "assignments" that are basely themes and it is really cool/inspiring to see how people complete the task. Often in ways I would never think too.

Nibbles > Denver Is Stuck In The 90s
08/06/2014 at 18:02

I'll author/mod if'n that'll put you over your requirements :)

Be warned. I have a Wacom I haven't touched in years and I generally stick to animated grouphugs / QnD shoops / MSPaint asshattery. I have been known to fart out some decent gems from time to time

Denver Is Stuck In The 90s > Nibbles
08/06/2014 at 18:04

We have met the mod requirement and with you and Phenotyp, We have met the authorship quota

Hooray! Time to dust off the old USB drivers

Turbo666 > RazoE
08/06/2014 at 18:10

These are rad! I do this quite a bit at work also, on sticky notes as well. Though mine are a lot less cohesive and not near as nice looking.

I am in!!!! I love to draw old bugs.

TheLOUDMUSIC- Put it in H! > Denver Is Stuck In The 90s
08/06/2014 at 18:18

Can I haz authorship? I cook occasionally, and I built my own desk and stuff. Edit: I would also be happy to mod for it as well.

Denver Is Stuck In The 90s > TheLOUDMUSIC- Put it in H!
08/06/2014 at 18:24

would you want authorship?

08/06/2014 at 18:27

I'll give you authorship, but I have enough mods for right now. I'll keep you in mind if the need for another mod arises

Turbo666 > Denver Is Stuck In The 90s
08/06/2014 at 18:40

Awesome, just let me know how I can help out, or what to do. Its dead at work and I'm here another hour and twenty.

Me! although i don't draw all that well, (i'm veering to the lands of sci-fi more and more) its great to have all the drawings and sketches in one single hub!

heck, drawing cars is my excuse on buying die casts! lol!

Don't want to mod, Photography Kinja is enough admin-ing for me. However, authorship would be nice (at least to spread my photography). I don't draw much, but it would be a cool place to put some of my 3D renderings I've been making lately.

Slave2anMG > Denver Is Stuck In The 90s
08/22/2014 at 15:04

I'm in for authorship...contributing photography as I can't freaking draw blood. B&W photography mostly...will mod if you need one. I run a couple of Yahoo groups and moderate another so have some experience in that.

Denver Is Stuck In The 90s > Slave2anMG
08/22/2014 at 15:06

Well, Kinja is pissing me off right now and I cant make the blog right now. But I am keeping a list, and will put you down for authorship when Kinja stops being dumb. I have enough mods for the time being but will keep you in mind should I need another one

Kailand09 > Denver Is Stuck In The 90s
08/27/2014 at 19:55

Did this get made?

Denver Is Stuck In The 90s > Kailand09
08/27/2014 at 20:06

Not yet, Still waiting for a kinja update

Kailand09 > Denver Is Stuck In The 90s
08/27/2014 at 20:07

Bummer, I totally could use some example sketches to look at. I'm REALLY shitty at drawing, but want to have a visualization for my car... You guys seem really good at it and it would be a great source to mimic.

Hey, could you give me authorship too?

link Something I posted to Mezzotempo a while back.

09/04/2014 at 13:20

Ya, Definitely! That Stuff is cool! I kinda wanna see it with color, Do you mind if I do it digitally? I am planning to take another shot at this again sometime after the 22nd, Thats when my summer quarter ends at school. I'll have time then.

Anima > Denver Is Stuck In The 90s
09/04/2014 at 15:33
