Dear billy423uk,
My point to you was missed, but that is alright I will state it this way. Everybody perceives their artwork and others differently. You can't change that, it is in the beholder's eye.
If you or anyone else tells me, I should have done something else to a piece of art, I will listen, but if the critisism takes away from what my point or my perception is, what makes the person doing the criticism right? I perceive it to be just right, but others did not....who is right?
Have you ever been to an art gallery in your city? You will see so many artist that state something like this..."I was trying to capture the image of.....whatever". While you stand their and look, you can't see their point no matter how hard you try....so what makes my perception correct and the artist's incorrect. As far as they are concerned the artwork is complete.
Do you understand what I mean?
