Deviousness |
Remember the old joke about opinions and a-holes. Seems to apply to the detractors.
Or as the saying goes, "Haters are going to hate". Don't give in.
- Dr Seuss
You go, dude.
Some people really DO just want to complain about anything.
Art is Art; it's supposed to turn a few heads and raise a few eyebrows. It never fails to appall me how quickly some people will call for censorship. (Or how loudly)
I can understand how certain exaggerated features you use in your pieces can be a bit off-putting to some. I myself can get a little creeped out sometimes by your use of such gigantic, cushiony, unrealistic, imposing, and voluptuously swollen lips and hair. But even when I'm the most weirded out, I still have a great deal of respect for the skill and beauty you put into all your work.
It's YOUR art. You have the right (Hell, the responsibility) to create whatever your imagination can throw at you.
The important thing is that you have the confidence to continue your work in the face of those who would detract from you.
I'm confident that as long as you have that strong a backbone, you will always be able to crate beauty.
So rock on.
