Artist's Bias

A condition that develops after working on a piece of artwork for long periods of time, rendering the artist incapable of deciding for themselves if it's any good.

Hey man, I've got a serious case of artist's bias. Can you tell me if this portrait sucks or not?

Artist's Bloom

The feeling you get after being on hiatus from being artistic and you have the sudden urge to write a lot of stuff that would feel like sex to your brain and your hands. Varies from person to person.(art, drama, music, creative writing, etc.)

Self-created to describe my feeling of my outburst of poetry.

Guy 1: So... Wrote anything new today?

Guy 2: I just got an artist's bloom. I'm gonna go home.

*Guy 2 goes on Tumblr and Twitter and posts as soon as he gets home*

Next day....

Guy 1: Holy crap! How'd you get so many followers?! It's like your hands jizzed out awesome onto your pages.

Guy 2: That's exactly what happened.

Artist's Day

When you take an epic shit and it smears the toilet in a decorative fashion for all to see and admire your work.

I was able to admire Jorge's beautiful work of art after he left the bathroom. He is always celebrating Artist's Day!

artist's attitude

An aura of self-importance and self-worth presented by artists who become swept up in their own head space.

"What's wrong with you? You HAVE TO make eye contact. It's the rule."
"No, I don't. See, I can paint this (and you can't), so shove it."
"Damn, you got quite the artist's attitude."

photographer: I want to photograph Michael more than anything.

friend: why are you so interested in taking a picture of Michael?

Artist's Burden

Seeing flaws in ones own work that others don't notice.

M: Man don't be like that, your painting is perfect!

N: But I did the nose wrong and the forehead's too big... Sorry, guess it's just an Artist's Burden.

Artist's Trance

A state of being that artists go into when drawing (or trying to draw). Often involves dehydration, a headache, and a sudden hatred of everything, plus other things like back/wrist pain and overstimulation. In this state, the artist is usually very focused on their work and would probably prefer to remain in this zoned-out phase for as long as possible.
Not confined to digital artists.

"See pronoun over there? pronoun is in an artist's trance. Let's not disturb pronoun."
