The lack of understanding of geisha really bothers me. Probably because one did a little research..... They are highly trained artisans of dance, and vocal and instrumental music. Not only that, but Geisha are the very few people alive who keep old traditions of song and dance alive. What's not "gei" or artisitc about it. Is a classical musician not an artist?

What people of this generation do not understand is that art isnot about ejaculting your personal feelings on a canva. It's not about masturbating 1000 miles-per-hour on an electric guitar. Art should encomass a more universal message to that all people can connect with because we all share in the human experience. The post-modern whatever-I-feel-goes is waning. Classical painters who can actually paint and who have honed a skill are making a come-back.

As a classical and flemanco guitar player, I can tell you that a simple song could take a few years to understand, memorize and then learn to play properly.

Geisha is not about make-up. Look deeper.
