Artist's Comments

This is as close as The YEti gets to a drawing a cartoon or comic frame. Thanks to Adam for anything good here and blame me for the crappy parts!
Dr Grip 0.5 pencil

I thought this a rather humorous way to make a point. I look through a lot of pencil art here on DA and one day I found an exceptional piece that looked like a poster-sized b&w photo. It had about 200 comments most of which consisted of something like "Oh My Gawd...That is INCREDIBLE!!". Way down the list I saw a critical comment about some portion of the shading. It was borderline rude and I looked at the portion it was criticizing and it was near flawless. I decided to find out who authored the comment so I followed the link. The deviant in question had a gallery of crap that looked like a child had scribbled on a piece of cardboard. I really began to wonder where that deviant got off making that comment.

I believe there is value in honest critique that is helpful or constructive when needed. This was not that kind of a comment. This piece is my commentary on that event.

Completely agree, comments like "copying the american gothic, duh!!!, yes, but point was humor not trying to make a statement with original art". The guy that comments on your art that points out that this or that is to dark or Gandoff hair was to short....hmm! I went to his website....he's drawing stick figures or blob figures with gold crayon and leaves a hole for a mouth. Yes, talent indeed for a my 5 year daughter maybe. Yeti, dude your art rocks, so rock on with and bring it on..... EvergreenScott

Dude, once again, you rock.

I love this piece because so many people will do just what you are talking about. The same goes for writing. I've had people comment on my pieces and say something about them negatively, but then, their work is not that great either. *shrugs*

Still, you rock \m/

lol...no prob.....i think i'd actually like to know why people who don't realise their own inadequacy make such comments....is it out of jealousy? out of pure fact? or out of realising their own inadequacy but failing to admit it. sigh....
