@sagaholmgaard's post on Artfol

Am I the only one who wishes for 'meaner' feedback from my teachers? I dunno, I always feel like there is more that I can improve on than what they tell me. Maybe I'm just not good enough at expressing which parts I'm struggling with?Apr 26, 2021

I still experience that when i ask friends for critique - they usually tell me the piece looks good and they cant see anything wrong with it. But i'm looking for ways to improve - not the reassurance that my art looks great 😅 that's why i live art communities like you guys here on artfol or certain discord servers, other artists know we're looking for constructive criticism so i usually end up getting some areas pointed out i can improve on
Yes! I miss when people would be honest about criticism (a little harsh). I just don't like when people critique stylistic choices
Definitely! Although I would 100% cry but like at the end of the day I would've appreciated it more
I totally relate to this in my art education 😭 Teachers tend to critique less the more artistic freedom the course offers, at least from my experience. What are you studying right now?
