Design vs Art?
-
Architecture and therefor design, is in a blurred edge collision with art and therefor, art has a function beyond the abstract/existential. Where these forms collide is open to interpretation but a lot of the more modern designs fit in to what I would call 'Abstract Architecture' where form most certainly has a function, to stop the whole thing falling down while being visually pleasing. Just my ten pence worth.
-
Art Inspires, Design Motivates, art is interpreted and design is accepted.
-
Music, Dance, Cinema, Literature, Painting, Sculpture, Architecture, Design, Philosophy, Politics, Economy, Science, Sports, Education, Gastronomy...
(these are just examples of human creative activity where Art may express itself...)
People usually say Art has no function but what they fail to see is that Art has a function and it has to function.
The function of a painting is to be hanged in the wall to be seen... it cannot collapse and you have to have lighting conditions and people have to be at the right distance and... it's all so trivial as you having to take a sh** at a bathroom.
-
Art is to be hanged, and so some designers.

Hi guys,
Recently I stumbled upon this TED talk about beauty. (https://www.ted.com/talks/denis_dutton_a_darwinian_theory_of_beauty)
I found it quite eye-opening and helped me understand and communicate with my clients. Especially to those I found difficult to relate to.
Interesting article on the design blog, thanks for sharing it.
I am finding a lot of inspiration in graphic design lately. Its just beautiful, how Sketchucation community works.regards,

You are the one being fooled by your own beliefs. You believe you're not skilled or talented so you have given up trying to prove your worth to yourself.
However I see you around trying to build up your skills, dedicating a lot to your car washing machines, a lot more than you need to, with a lot more software that I would find reasonably required to do the job.
You're preparing yourself for some grand objective...
Let it free!

Well, I do keep trying some things. There are a couple things for my ultimate solution (maybe unrealistic) that I am trying to figure out. I need some foam and water mists to go with some pieces of equipment and would ultimately like for them to be animated as well.
I think maybe I post too many things as well. I have been using Sketchp for 2+ years now but primarily for the car washes. I would like to learn other hints as well. I see a lot of talented people doing things in this forum that I would love to be ale to do. Maybe some day.

You insensitive person!
You work with renders, at least you got to love that subtle caustics effect...

I like those expressions about Design and Art. Seems true to me.
One can make Art. This is called Art.
One can use Art (from the catalogue or his own) to make things usable in everyday life. This is called the skill of Designing things.

But what is a skilled artist and a talented designer to make of that?

A skilled artist will make design and a talented designer will make art...
