![Post by switchelsweets: [wish I had a better cite, but that's all I got]
I want to share some wisdom from my high school art teacher.
In my AP Art class, there was a girl who was just starting to experiment with mixed media. At this point she was still playing around, trying to decide what direction she wanted to go with her portfolio. So one critique day, she brought in an abstract canvas with some rhinestone highlights and painted and real peacock feathers. She loved sparkles and peacock feathers so she thought she'd try introducing them a *little*. And after everyone had given some input, the teacher gave her his advice, VERY roughly paraphrased here:
"So here's the thing... I do not like this style. These are just elements that do not speak to me personally, but I see that you like them, and you're doing interesting things with them.
"My biggest critique is, I only merely *dislike* this piece. I want you to make me HATE it. Go crazy with the things that you like. Don't hold back trying to make it palatable to people like me. Because I am NEVER going to like it. And if the audience does not like it, it should drive them crazy seeing how much YOU love it."
Her portfolio was chock full of neon colors and glitter and rhinestones and splashes of peacock feathers and it was a delight. Our teacher despised every piece lol, but she got great marks and I think even won some awards. And more importantly, she was happy and proud of the results. Because she didn't limit herself by trying to appeal to people who were never going to enjoy what she enjoyed.
Takeaway here: be as cringe as you want. Don't limit yourself based on other ppl's tastes. They're not you, and you are incredible.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ot3nzcyg5dqlrs27gvdqhouv/bafkreibxon6wppdxp36o6cvxbnd24wvfqhxfezzdlfpqyh6m4fokkauon4@jpeg)

I think it'd be interesting to have an awards show, where you can only nominate one piece in one category per year. It gives a chance for some much more obscure media to be highlighted.

Americans, as a whole, get a bad rap. But, it's important to remember it is a country of 343 million people. Many of whom are good people. Don't blame millions off the actions of 1, 10,000, or 77,000,000 people.
In short, heartwarming.

Something I think is really sad about people who ask AI to generate things for them is that they don't get the satisfaction of improvement. Basically all artists have to practice to improve at art, and they miss out on the satisfaction of watching yourself get better.

At this point, schools don't encourage learning or creativity. They encourage conformity. Good on the kid.
