I was in awe to be there and then after running into some snobby, "husband wife duo artists," they took my "awe" away. But I came to the realization that I don't paint for those people. And maybe their just afraid of competition? People buy my art! So that means there are other people, besides myself, who enjoy it. And that's all I need to remind myself, when the ugly artists bring me down. Pam your the bomb.com when it comes to artists. And I am sure that ugly attitudes are afraid of your competition. I don't think art is something you learn in school, technique is. Art comes from inside and everyone's expressions are different. That is what makes art... art! As the old saying goes, "Art is in the eye of the beholder!"Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02218036040982175253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7066621723742556861.post-90585481604344644802009-02-25T10:00:00.000-08:002009-02-25T10:00:00.000-08:00follow your bliss sweetie! live oud loud with your...follow your bliss sweetie! <BR/>live oud loud with your art! <BR/>and by the way i love it! <BR/>your calacas rock!<BR/>;-)couragetocreatewriteandlovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06649184939312099888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7066621723742556861.post-68680007953617263542009-02-25T05:56:00.000-08:002009-02-25T05:56:00.000-08:00Bonjour Pamela!

I am a professional illustrator and my style just did not fit the mold. So, I decided to pursue my style anyways ... Now, I am getting quite a few assignements without even hunting for them and no longer need a rep to sell my commercial work. My problem now is copycats on the web... People just think that because your images are on the net, they can take it and literally copy it. I have had a particular painter on eBay who would take my current images, trace them on board and redo them in a colored pencil version and a bad version that is... People need to be educated about this. It is ok to be inspired by someone else's art but wrong to copy it... Keep up with the good work and stop looking around! That is what I do when I get upset about "so called artists". Take care, LuLuLuLu Mypinkturtlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02685216694058939591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7066621723742556861.post-20610450076660793442009-02-24T16:23:00.000-08:002009-02-24T16:23:00.000-08:00So very well said and I agree with you one hundred...So very well said and I agree with you one hundred percent! Living in the Los Angeles area, that attitude is everywhere and like you, I don't ever plan on acting like that and will continue to just do my thing. If people like it, great, if not, that's fine too! You go girl!

I feel like you do. What are "true artists?" I don't paint to sell, I paint to enjoy my feeling that flow through my paintings. Actually Pam, I paint for myself and I feel that if someone out there doesn't care for my way of painting, that's cool. I don't worry about it. Just continue to paint your heart out and you'll be fine. Just stay the way you are and live your dreams and don't forget to get those Converse. You don't need to lose weight to wear them. You'll be fine, just fine. Take care and paint.GlorV1https://www.blogger.com/profile/06789212398770555465noreply@blogger.com
