ART – How Best to Take Artistic Critique

Copyright Luis Escobar 2007 www.luisescobarblog.com

Getting your work critiqued is a skill set all of it’s own.  It’s something I’ve rarely heard anyone talk about.

As a storyboard artist, I get my work critiqued a lot.  Over the years I’ve learn to take critique.

I’ve learned from other storyboard artist, watching them take critique, what the best way to approach it is.

In the video below, I give you tips six tips on how best to approach getting critiqued:

Here’s what I talk about in the video above in a nutshell:

  1. It’s all about attitude.
  2. Stay positive.
  3. Be open – No mater what, there’s something new you can learn or affirm.
  4. Be humble – You are NOT the greatest artist on the planet.
  5. Take it with Gratitude – You are not owed any kind of critique.
  6. Don’t take it personally – What they are critiquing, and who YOU are, are two separate things.
