BUT, Stormy, what IF he mentions something you had not thought of? I understand that EVERYONE here has a vision in their mind about what they want to create. Maybe it's like a virgin that isn't allowed to be touched. (what do I know, right?) BUT, what if he suggests to add this or that or that a particular item looks out of place...or needs a different color? Or that it's out of balance? Or might be better by adding (fill in the blank)? What's wrong with that? Even if you are selling your art so much that you can't keep up with the demand...what's wrong with listening to an opinion? If you disagree with the comments, continue as you were. Simple. I guess my remarks are partly due to the fact that I'm not very good. So, I relish the opportunity for anyone to make a comment. Perhaps if I was a great artist like some others are, I would grow an ego that would shut off any outside suggestions. I kind of doubt it but perhaps that is what has happened to so many other successful artists here...their head has grown so big that there is no room left for a differing opinion. Not ranting at you, Stormy, just using your comment as an excuse to try and make my point. After all, you DID invite his critique.
