    I think you just know when somebody is being genuine in their art.

I wish that were true. My high school art teacher revelled in SHITTING all over most of my projects. I would slave over a piece, and get it exactly as I wanted it. And she would just destroy it. I'm convinced she genuinely hated me. (and I'm not claiming to be a "good" artist... but I can pinpoint three specific pieces I did that felt so right and so good to me... and she lit me up.

ahhhhh life.
