These art ads are on my Facebook landing page right now.
From the site: “Giselle Dekel is a Belgian illustrator and surface pattern designer based in Israel. She loves to create fun and simplistic images, using humor where she can, if not in her work then definitely in her life.”
We do not have similar senses of humor. Why this one? She has other designs that are fine, but why the toilet? I’m a mom who had toddlers once upon a time who rarely let me go to the bathroom alone. No mom wants to hang this in memory of those days. I speak for all moms.
“Straight outta London, Mambo is the brainchild of a designer, who’s fashionable eye locates her at the centre of all things next.”
The center of all things next is a silhouette of Britney circa 1999?
This one says “Toni Scott began Typologie Paper Co because of her strong desire to be a stay-at-home mother but also run a boss babe business.”
Yep, it says “boss babe.” and she has a print that reads “poop there it is.”
What are we even doing at this point?
This cat print says it was made by a label in Berlin. No artist.
I bothered to look up the last print. I didn’t click from Facebook because I know better. The print is by a company that “began in 2019 with the ambition of making creative and engaging wall art based on everyday information sources and using what people love to do as inspiration for designs.”
No artists were listed, so who knows if they just have a couple of graphic designers that crank those out (all of their designs are in a very similar style) or if they farm the work out. But it’s very Target/Hobby Lobby kind of art. I mean, it’s fine. It’s fine.
At least show me affordable art by people, Facebook. These companies need to list a person who made them. Of course, unless they were made by AI. As for the ones that are made by artists, it’s fine. It’s fine
