Text+Art

After watching Austin Kleon's video I find myself agreeing with his ideas about how art is stealing things that already exist.  There is no such thing as being original when it comes to making art, everything comes from something; but it does take an good artist to steal something and make it there own.

Amy Burvall's video talk about her serendipidoodle challenges; which are when she puts out two words that people can then interpret and draw out. There are may art challenges like serendipidoodle out there, one that comes to mind being the inktober challenges, and they're a good way to build up your creativity if you can't think of anything to draw.

There are many different ways to combine art with text, one of the most popular ways to do so would probably be by making an comic book, but there are other ways. I personally like Jean Jullien's way of combining text, and other things, with art; with one of my favorites of her's being this picture.
