I had this conversation about this picture. If you read the first half, be sure to read the second half as well.
andlemonade (10:11:26 PM): I think the picture is bad
andlemonade (10:11:39 PM): It isn't as original as everyone claims, and looks unfinished
andlemonade (10:11:55 PM): If they put it in their portfolio that is what everyone will say to the
andlemonade (10:12:12 PM): They will just past it over, and ignore it as an unfinished piece.
andlemonade (10:12:49 PM): It's difficult to make an piece of artwork look finished, when not using color. I should know because I prefer working without color
andlemonade (10:13:30 PM): Overall, the picture needs to be darkened
andlemonade (10:13:41 PM): And I just want to reply and say that is looks like shit
Evil Leet 06 (10:19:52 PM): well you can't just reply and say that, you need to explain it
Evil Leet 06 (10:20:00 PM): plus it will also open you to scrutiny
andlemonade (10:14:27 PM): I don't really care what people say about my work
andlemonade (10:15:23 PM): For three years my work was highly praised. I won awards, had openings, my work hung in a number of galleries.
andlemonade (10:15:44 PM): Then I changed towns, and schools, and failed my two art classes
andlemonade (10:15:59 PM): I was told my work was horrid
andlemonade (10:16:07 PM): that it'd never hang anywhere
andlemonade (10:16:31 PM): That I wasn't good enough to be in one of the shows I had been in for the last three years.
andlemonade (10:17:07 PM): I know that what someone says about your art work means very little, if not nothing.
andlemonade (10:17:16 PM): It's their own opinion.
