A Critic is a Person – updated 2017
I hope you are enjoying a peaceful and joyful weekend. I am offering another vintage napkin today from around 1999 or so. I started drawing them back then but didn’t start to date them consistently until later.
This isn’t a harsh criticism of critics, as a matter of fact it seems to be saying they are pretty good at part of the journey. They just don’t happen to be able to get there by themselves. But it’s nice to have people pointing the way and I think critics have an important place in doing that to some degree.
The creative person should always realize they control the ‘car’ and don’t have to go where the critic tells them to!
