If you think destorying an artist& #39;s esteem/confidence is "criticism" please don& #39;t talk to me.
I remember 5 years ago when I was 14, I was stubborn and I didn& #39;t handle criticism well. But there was one particular comment that someone made towards me that crushed me for a year, and I couldn& #39;t bring myself to post art to that place they commented for months on end
They said I wouldn& #39;t get into any art schools, that my art was trash, etc. And to add to that, they were hiding behind an empty account. I still think about that comment to this day, it drives me to be better. I handle criticism better now. However
There are better ways to tell someone they& #39;re messing up rather than spitting in their face saying they don& #39;t belong in the animation/art scene, telling them they have no chance or purpose to pursue what they love.. That& #39;s fucked up. And I don& #39;t tolerate it.
I& #39;m thankful for my stubbornness, because I eventually said fuck this, and posted art again after hiding in the dark for.. maybe a year? (except for the few months that I did post something I was comfy posting.) But seriously, commenting that shit can really damage someone.
