art
this is specifically not a tag for "art that i have made." i'm posting stuff i made in works and projects and using tags like music and illustration to group things by medium, and not using art as a category word like that within the site.
what this tag is for is when im like, writing about art. or theres something specifically relevant to "art" or "being an artist" as a concept in play
