if my mom had said anything of the kind to me, ever, i would have died. i would have cried my heart out and then, when it had been going on for a while, i would have been so pissed off that i would be capable of murder. isn't she supposed to love everything you do, no matter how bad it is? or am I getting this whole parenting business wrong? i thought one of the principal words in parenthood was "support".
Usually she really is pretty complimental of individual peices, but overall, if someone else compliments me she'll try to I guess "humble" me by telling me it's not true. Actually, the friend who she said I'd never be able to be as good as today... well long story to how we started talking about her, I told me mom what *I* thought of her art. And the truth was, I found it shallow. Her genre--blood, siucide, darkness, etc. can be found anywhere at deviantart of elfwood. It's not that deep or original. My mom was completely shocked and this opinion, and then tried explaining her friend's view on the world--how she has a twisted, dark and crazy view. And I told my mom my view on the world--that it's a joke (in a good way, though. I can't explain it now, I'm too tired). If there is a God, he's watching us and laughing at us. I don't understand why joy isn't considered as strong an emotion as sadness is... Okay, sorry if my reply is disjointed, I'm sleepy...
i usually find the "deep" art pathetic. the whole darkness thing usually seems like a very cheap attempt to be interesting and this constant wallowing in pretended angst and darkness just makes me sick and tired of the whole bunch. This is because, nine times out of ten, they are completely normal persons looking for attention.

And of course I'm on the dark side.
