Artwork of Portals, Gateways and Thresholds

Portals, manmade or naturally occurring; warp gates, or any other type of dramatic entrance

Guidelines

  1. Titles should be in the format "Title" by Artist
    • If adding the artists social media handle after their name, use [square brackets]
    • If adding a year after the title, use (parenthetical brackets)
    • If posting your own art, preface the title with [OC]
  2. Please include the original source in the post body
  3. This community is meant for showcasing artists' work - this excludes
    • AI generated artwork
    • Screenshots from films or games
  4. Submitting the link from the original source instead of downloading and rehosting is recommended
    • This will ease server stress on smaller lemmy instances
    • /!\ Many mobile apps don't generate previews unless the url ends with a common file extension /!\
    • Therefore, if possible, please strip all parameters after .png, .jpg, etc.
  5. Mark posts as NSFW when necessary (nudity/violence)

I fn hate Beeple with a passion. His work is so uninspired and "lol so random". I don't understand how he's so popular and successful. He has zero talent while there are so many amazing artists out there that get zero recognition. He's like if NFT bros merged into a single person.

I'm really not picky over overly critical, but for some reason Beeple triggers me.

i know exactly what you mean, but i feel he used to be really good - before he got into his "satire"/"commentary" era

i followed him on tumblr until a year or two ago, when i had enough of his "yet another 3d render of baby trump or musk's head"

Yeah that's exactly why. I didn't know he could actually also make nice art. But I guess it's his audience's fault for promoting all these dumb ""satire"" posts. It was novel for the first one or two, but he went all in once he smelled blood. Talk about zero integrity.
