Should artists suffer for their art?

NO lmao! They don’t HAVE to do anything but make the art the way they like or feel it makes sense to be created. Simple.

Do any of you guys disagree? @Artists

Umm… I don’t think they should, no, but that doesn’t mean they have.

Nope
I have met people who think that in order for something to be considered art it must portray a deep emotion like suffering or really bad mental health even though
Happiness is also an emotion
As well as just feeling at peace with the world around you

Suffer…?
er…

Well artists necessarily shouldn’t.
But on the other hand, it’s also true that some of the best art ideas pop up during the depressed state
