There is one trend in the artistic world that is starting to make my left eye twitch.
Sugar Skulls
On everything.

Seriously, somebody make it stop.
Or I'm going to sugar-skull-i-fy a shiny butt.

Anyone else have a little rant about a specific art trend?

I have noticed them getting a bit popular, yes. They look interesting (but I like skulls any way, first part of human anatomy I got right xd ). Are they getting a overly popular yes, but as you saw it is a trend, and trends come and go.
Do I have one that makes my eye twitch....not so much a trend but some art styles, I just don't get them. sweatdrop

It's kind of like the face paint that Mexicans do on their "day of the dead" (AKA Halloween).

Huh.... I haven't noticed. I'm not huge on them, but I guess they're ok.

I used to get tired of My Little Pony art. I decided to stop looking for 'pony' art, and instead focused on artists who used actual ponies and horses as a models for MLP requests. A huge improvement on my mood!

I've never actually seen the sugar skulls thing myself, but I did cringe when I realized I was about to put a skull and crossbones on my baby-pink DS carrier. To much of that 'Girl' color+ something remotely gloomy at this point.
