I love the artwork, love the colours, everything.

But I'd have to disagree on the text... if the people care, they wouldnt criticize you at all. They'd give you advice, if anything. But criticizing someone is no way to show you care. It seems that the main reason someone will criticize you, is because you dont fit into their standards of what is normal, or how a person should be, or how you should be doing something and you do it your way, instead of how they think it should be done.  As far as arts goes, I can see how constructive criticism there is a positive thing. But I think everywhere else in life, people criticizing is not them caring. If anything, if they do that, they only show that they care about you doing what they want and how they want it done.

Of course.. there are some exceptions. If you're out doing something incredibly stupid (and possibly self destructive) and no advice from anyone reaches you, it all turns into criticism because they simply run out of things to say to you so their only option is to begin nagging you endlessly, in an attempt to reach some reasoning within you.

Just my take on it all..

I think you might understand the message wrong. It's ment to say that people who endlessly just aggree with everything you do normally indicates that they don't really care what you do. But people who care and don't just generally ignore you are more likely to open their mouths if you're doing something stupid which they'd like to see you improve at.

Someone on FA confuzed the word critizism with pointless bitching too though, I suppose people wrongly use words thesedays a lot. Critizism is a form of advice, and not a form of complaining.

Err... Im pretty sure criticism is a form of complaining.. it's pointing out persons faults and mistakes, from your own point of view.

Neotheta In reply to PorcelainMalice [2014-02-10 21:58:11 +0000 UTC]

No, critizism isn't complaining. It's pointing out someones faults yes, but not for the sake of complaining. That's why I used to word 'criticize' and not the word 'complain'.

Holly shit this is old.....  Bizarre looking at this now. Constructive criticism works, yes.

Also I should have pointed out that I grew up being criticized endlessly, which has scarred me for life, hence my original view/comment on the subject. All depends on who how, when, why, where, etc..

I love the extra flare and personality that the text ads. It definitely gives the photo more depth and meaning. I also love how the speckles give that glowing feel to it. It's also the first time that I've seen anyone use scoring technique to add detail to the body. It blends so perfectly when the photo is in small version, and even works surprisingly well in full definition in comparison to your furring. Did you purposely use an orange eye due to it being the complimentary color to purple and blue?


Sorry, felt obligated to criticize it after reading that text.

I guess it all depends on how people criticize artists such as myself that really matters most. For example, if someone is able to criticize me by saying a lot of hurtful stuff that isn't exactly true, then it probably doesn't mean that person actually "cares" for me.

Neotheta In reply to CoolCSD1986 [2013-10-17 11:12:22 +0000 UTC]

The message isn't really supposed to be art related criticzim, tho even when people give critique on art it usually means they care more/spend more time inspecting the piece than the people who just say 'cute'.

CoolCSD1986 In reply to Neotheta [2013-10-17 18:07:09 +0000 UTC]

Ah, okay. I've never actually thought about that, and I sometimes say a few things about the artwork that I check out every once in a while.

I was thinking..what if someone criticize because of jealousy?
I know this drawing isn't about it really.But does jealousy mean that someone cares as well?
In a way the person who is jealous does care because they want something the other person has, right?
They wouldn't pay attention if nothing the other person has interests them.

Neotheta In reply to Zorakku [2013-10-16 12:50:28 +0000 UTC]

That's an interesting question, which I've never actually thought of before.

I suppose it depends on the person a lot, often people who are jealious tend to pick on things that aren't very important tho, but I'd count that more towards just regular complaining rather than criticzing. But, a jealious person cares more than someone who's ignorant, just not the positive kind of caring xD

Tho I've noticed that negative forms of caring (jealousy, hate etc.) have a tendency to turn into positive caring over time, atleast a lot easier than ignorance turning into caring. Obviously not always. If that makes any sense.

Zorakku In reply to Neotheta [2013-10-17 09:35:17 +0000 UTC]

It depends on the situation also.Jealousy can be hateful as well wich isn't positive, yup.
I was mostly thinking these kind of situations; a) when you get jealous when someone else is trying to flirt to your girl/boyfriend..
and b) when someone is jealous because of your new shoes for example.
In the first example (a) you get mad because someone is trying to take away your loved one, wich is caring.
The second example is kind of caring because the person would want to get the same shoes but can't for some reason and therefore is jealous.
People often get jealous about things they don't have or because of some threaths.Like someone is "better than you" or someone is "trying to take away things from you".

Neotheta In reply to Zorakku [2013-10-17 11:20:14 +0000 UTC]

Tho none of those would actually involve someone criticzing someone, unless you're criticzising the person who's being jealious for acting that way. Tho that would count as caring cause life is better for both sides if the person being jealious wouldnt be c:
