“A writer that writes for the good of humanity instead of his own becomes a more and more refined writer”.
This is a quote by Salvatore Brizzi, an Italian writer with a lot of intriguing insights. I see his quote applied to all kinds of artists, not just writers.
And this is where 99% of artists fail to shine their own light.
Egoistic artists
The recent situation involving Neil Gaiman is just the latest in a long series of artists who have exploited their work to gain status and fame for their own personal pleasure.
A lot of artists focus solely on their own personal gain when creating. That’s why their art is so empty, and in many cases, completely degenerate and morally grotesque. And everything surrounding those artists, like award committees, woke internet platforms and influencers are accomplices into inflating the power and fame of people that, normally, wouldn’t get any.
For the last decades, we have been living in a dark era for artists, but there is hope for non-egoistic artists.
Generous artists
Creating a work of art takes time, energy and, often, sacrifice.
Artists that create with the betterment of humanity as a number one priority are extremely generous. Even if they are often not rewarded for it. Every remarkable work of art is a gift that needs to be shared as much as possible.
This is why, these days, I’m collecting all my skills and experience to create something that can help all those Christian Conservative artists spread the beauty, truth and good through their works of art.
