There's definitely truth to that. She hates her latest piece that she just posted in the art forum last night. Being a Warcraft fan, I loved it, but she's already talking about taking it down. I think she takes things too seriously when it comes to her art. She doesn't believe in putting out "crap", but even if a piece is good in everybody's mind, if she doesn't like it, she'll take it down. Somebody should make a Strangepuppets.com "THE DIRECTOR'S CUT!" where she can't take down all of her art everytime she decides she doesn't like it anymore.
I guess it comes down to my belief that you just have to "let things go" at some point and stop worrying about them so much. :/

That's the shitty part of the cerative process: If she doesn't like it, that's all that matters to her. I think it's that way with most artists- a hundred million people could like it, and it wouldn't matter because SHE didn't like it.
But all artists are fruitcakes and whack-jobs, so their judgement is inherently suspect.
You have spectacular talent, Re. I don't think there's any job in the world that could kill your art.
