If you have ever suffered a crushing “professional critique” from an art school professor, college teacher, or fellow artist, this episode is for you. Some critiques don’t just sting in the moment—they stay with you for years and can affect your confidence as an artist. Find out why some critiques cut so deeply, the unspoken presence of envy in the art world, and how you can grow new wings, reclaim your confidence, and shine brighter than ever.
To learn more about the difference between a constructive critique and a personal attack read The Charmed Studio’s: How Do I Cope With a Harsh Critique of My Art? Why People Say Dumb Things and How To Bounce Back.
“Why Art School Critiques Caused You to Stop Making Art – and How to Reclaim Your Creative Passion.” by Preston Cram.
