Unpopular Opinion: Pictures

I don’t know why people work so hard to make paintings and drawings look like photographs. Photography is a perfectly sound art form. Imitating it seems unproductive and a general waste of time. If I want art that looks like a photo, then I’m just going to take a photo. If I’m going to make a graphic design of my own I’m not even going to try to make it look like photography. That just seems stupid.
