I do not have time to go through the galleries, and certainly not to weed through the promo pics, the pretty pics, and the look-what-I-just-did pics in order to find those pictures worth commentary. Feedback takes time and thoughtfulness, and it far too often is not appreciated. "Critical" thinking is not necessarily destructive! If somebody directs my attention to a picture and appears to honestly want to improve it, then I will do my best to help. I'll hand my work to friends whom I can trust to be honest. If they tell me "this isn't your best work" or "the hands aren't as old as the face" or "the proportions aren't quite even"... then I can take their compliments as true compliments and treasure them as the rare jewels they are. I'm a professional, published artist, and over the decades I have seen what happens to artists and writers who don't continually get criticism. They never improve. They never try new techniques. They even get sloppy with the skills they have supposedly mastered. We get so close to our work that we can't see it objectively. Somebody else has to do it for us. Even if I was rich and famous and had a museum wing named after me, I'd hope that there would be at least one person who could show me where and how to improve... and that I was still open-minded enough to accept the advice.
