    I read a short biography of one of my fave artists last night.

    He was not a good person, he came from a deeply misogynist society , knew better but still aided in events leading up to a young woman being murdered by her husband.

    He was also not some magic artist that had no help or training.

    I am conflicted as his paintings really are beautiful.

      There are a lot of artists and musicians who unfortunately aren’t great behind the scenes
