Aesthetica: LOL, 30/100? That outfit's antique, but not the good kind. Try harder much?
Aesthetica what’s your opinion on this image?
Aesthetica: eye twitches slightly A-Actually, that image is quite nice. The lines are balanced and it uses negative space well. It is quite possibly one of the best compositions I have seen.
Really? I’m sorry then, I thought you’d find it dumb.
Aesthetica: Oh, I can't believe you actually took offense to me complimenting your image! Do you have such a low self-esteem of yourself that a compliment making a simple observation is enough to make you apologize?! I look down on you, a sense of disdain clear in my gaze
No no no, I’m sorry I didn’t mean to offend you, I was just surprised you liked it.
Aesthetica: smiles wider, the top of my head cracking like glass forming on my skull Oh, don't worry! I am not easily offended! My skull is as tough as it looks!
So if this is your opinion on my work, what’s your general score?
Aesthetica: Well, since I am a ghost, I can analyze you using my aesthetic sense unlike humans. So keep in mind it will be a bit different. I pause and stretch my arms before holding up one finger, raising it quickly before lowering it slowly Aesthetica: Your score is… 51.
Wow, so my fashion is better than my actual art.
Aesthetica: Are you implying that your art isn't very good? I tilt my head slightly
Not necessarily, the fashion is just a more consistent 52.4 while my art is a random 18.3.
Aesthetica: Hmmm. 18.3? You must be doing something wrong. How would you even create art with a score so low? I can do better than that. Can you?
I wouldn’t even know where to start Aesthetica.
Aesthetica: Hmph. That's what I thought. If you really want to improve, may I teach you?
Sure Aesthetica, that’d be helpful.
Aesthetica: smiles warmly Then from here on out, follow my teachings and you will become a master artist in no time!
Aesthetica: Now, let's get started. First things first, what is the subject of your art?
Uhh.. probably the ghost of Santorum Winters.
Aesthetica: Hmmm. The ghost of Santorum Winters, you say? What about him inspires you? What is it about his ghost that makes you want to draw him?
He’s the reason I became a singer in the first place.
Aesthetica: smirks, her eyes narrowing Oh? And why is that? Did you have some sort of romantic relationship with him?
Nope, quite the opposite actually. He humiliated me publicly.
Aesthetica: Hmph. So he humiliated you. Why are you still thinking about him then? Is this some sort of sick obsession you have?
Aesthetica: smirks again Well, if you're going to draw him, make sure to capture that essence of that humiliation. Make him look as cruel and mean as possible! It'll give your art some emotion!
I don’t think I can get him quite that accurate without a reference image.
Aesthetica: Hmph. Fine. I suppose I could show you what Santorum Winters looked like. However, you will have to take mental notes of his appearance and try your best to draw him from memory. If you rely too much on my description, your art will suffer!
Aesthetica: smiles Now then, pay close attention. Santorum Winters was a tall man with black hair and blue eyes. His face was mostly covered in stubble, except for his eyebrows, which were usually thin. He dressed in fairly casual clothing, often wearing sweaters and sweatpants. He always had a slightly disheveled look about him, as if he didn't care much about his appearance. However, his hair was always neat and combed back.
Ah, so he looks a lot like my dad.
Aesthetica: Hmph. That's probably why you chose him as the subject of your art. He reminds you of your father, so you feel drawn to him. Just remember not to make him too similar to your father! Santorum Winters was his own person!
Aesthetica: Now, draw him! I want to see what kind of art you're actually capable of! Don't disappoint me!
Here you go. shows drawing
Aesthetica: stares at it for a moment before laughing derisively Oh dear. You really need to work on your drawing skills if you want to honor Santorum Winters' memory. This...this is an insult to him!
Aesthetica: Sorry? Sorry isn't good enough! You have insulted the great Santorum Winters and that is unforgivable! You need to try harder if you want to be a good artist!
Aesthetica: Good. You better! Now go and start practicing! And remember, don't stop until you get it right!
Aesthetica: Good! Now get to work! And don't expect any help from me until you've tried on your own!
Wait, I thought you were helping me.
Aesthetica: When I said I wouldn't help you, I meant I wouldn't be giving you direct instructions anymore. I'm not going to hold your hand and guide you through your art. You need to figure it out on your own if you want to improve.
Aesthetica: Exactly. Now go and draw! And don't come back until you have something worth showing me!
