When you look at a piece of art, whether in a live gallery or online, how long do you spend appreciating each it? I bet you usually take one quick glance, pass judgment, then move on to the next momentary distraction. It’s easy to forget that art can take a really, really, really long time.

Aria Blarg fromAriablarg+Friendslikes to dovideogame art commissions, ranging from $80 to $400 depending on the size of the canvas. As an added bonus, she films herself painting the pieces and uploads time-lapse videos of the whole process. The vids run around four minutes in length, condensed down from who knows how many hours. I bet dollars to donuts that would-be artists doodling something for the first wouldn’t even lasttwominutes before the frustration that they aren’t Bob Ross sets in.
