Not for them

If someone doesn’t like your work, fine.

It’s not for them.

I have small toys all over my desk, painted by various underground artists.

One is dead. One is about to pop his own head. One has a cow’s udder for a face.

Some people may not like them.

That’s fine. It’s not for them.

It doesn’t distract from the art.
It doesn’t negate nor diminish the art.
It’s simply not for them.

And so it goes with your work. By all means, take feedback. Make it great for those you make it for.

But everyone else?

Nor for them.
