I wish I could title this journal entry, because I would call it "You dare question my art ability? I shall backhand thee!"

I shouldn't be so butt hurt about it, but some constructive criticism would be nice. I put up a picture in the art arena, and I guess "arena" was a good name for it since I guess we are taking cheap shots. However, that does give me the desire to try harder. Some sixteen year old girl looked at my picture and said, "...4/10".

It annoyed me, I'll admit to that.

Granted, that is a drawing I drew a long time ago, but it still irks me that she puts it down for some reason that she doesn't even want to bother listing. She has probably seen better, and there are some things that I know might look strange to other people if they don't know the story I formulated in my head (such as the extra long arms on the monsters) but at least tell me why it deserves a freakin' "F".

(See, I have a math mind as well. 4/10 = 40% = F...at least that's what all my graded tests told me). razz

At least I can thank that girl for giving me the incentive to make a new picture and just make it awesome. Bah, it's not like she's a jerk or anything. I was just a little hurt that somebody didn't think that much of my art work. Maybe she is really objective and my drawing is better than %40 of what she's seen. Yeah...that's it. I'll keep telling myself that. rolleyes
