The Art of Variation

You know what I get really sick of?

I mean, don't get me wrong, I love art in general, and certain kinds of art (i'll keep it vauge for ease). And I frequent popular art geared blogs and websites and like to see the new sorts of things coming out.

But I'm getting really rather bored. Because I'm sick of all the white girls. No offense for those of a more "fair" complexion. One is not better than the other but I feel like that's rarely represented in popular art. Or possibly just "pop art."

The pictures are these whimsical, gorgeous, breathtaking, and beautiful pictures of women in various states: strong, weak, clothes, naked, plain, adorned, sketched, painted, sculpted, and photographed. And they're nice.

But brown women can be these same things too... And it isn't even just a 'colored' woman that I want to see: I want to see variation. There'll be a sea of red haired, blonde haired, tawny haired, but always white girls... And then one black woman. And if we're lucky a japanese or chinese girl. I want to scream at the world that there are things that exist between these points on the map. All asian is summed into chinese or japanese, all brown is summed into black. I want to see girls I can relate to. I want to see one white, one brown, one tan, one black, and one everything girl.

Even some of the artists I see online that are of a "brown descent" draw these stunningly beautiful blonde girls.

And it's just. so. boring. I get bored of the same eye shapes and nose shapes and chin lines.

Let's start a revolution.
