i like your profile picture it is cool i dont understand why you are giving constructive criticism to people who did not ask for it though if u are going through something hope u get through it soon

blah blah blah im not going through anything, im not some depressed crybaby. i just know how art works and its not my fault some people are bad at it

[toast-thief]

if you cant draw then dont give criticism , you have nooooo say in something you dont do bro!😭

and your criticism is not criticism, its just being plain rude, you can say you're helping all you want but good god at least show some of your art and stop being mean💀

i do draw, damn well, and i know what im talking about. just bc i dont look for art validation from strangers online doesnt mean i dont know what im doing. if you cant handle seeing critiques what are you even doing on tumblr?

I don’t believe you deserve the criticism you’ve been receiving, but I do think there's room for improvement in how you communicate your feedback. If this issue isn’t addressed, it might continue to persist. For example, saying things like “learn colour theory” isn’t helpful or constructive.

When evaluating a work of art, the process can be broken down into four basic steps: describing, analyzing, interpreting, and evaluating. Art critics use these steps, but as an online communicator, you don’t need to follow them rigidly—however, keeping these in mind can help refine your approach.

Here are some tips for providing more constructive criticism:

Actionable: Feedback should offer clear guidance on how to improve. Unhelpful criticism, on the other hand, doesn’t provide any direction for growth.

Clear: The message should be straightforward to avoid confusion. The goal is to ensure that the person receiving the feedback knows exactly what to work on.

While your criticism isn't destructive, it does come across as unclear or blunt, which can make it difficult for others to take seriously. Sometimes, the tone can be perceived as unstructured or overly critical, which may lead to the response you’re receiving. I encourage you to consider how your words may be interpreted, as this can have a significant impact on how others engage with your feedback.

It might be helpful to explore different methods of giving constructive criticism. You have the potential to be insightful, but honing this skill will help your feedback be more effective and better received. Taking the time to ensure your critique is thoughtful and clear will help you avoid the risk of coming across as harsh or unhelpful. Criticism is most valuable when it’s both kind and clear, and learning to offer it in a constructive manner will strengthen your interactions.

If you don’t have anything positive or constructive to say, it might be best to refrain from commenting. Ultimately, offering feedback in a more thoughtful way will help you avoid being misunderstood and will encourage others to engage with your thoughts more meaningfully.

Stop with the harassment troupe. Baiting on Tumblr is wild work.

all I did was give advice, what’s with the need to have everyone target me? it’s a sin when i critique someone’s work, but when yall cyber bully me it’s okay? yeah, I see how it is.

[toast-thief]

why are you such a hater bro 😭😭 chill

Hi, so it’s called constructive criticism. if you don’t know how to take it you shouldn’t be posting art online. thanks!

[toast-thief]

u seen the tweets?

yeah, I did, and I find it interesting that someone was so quick to start a witch hunt instead of graciously taking the advice of a person just trying to help. It’s clear some people post with just the intent to fish for compliments. Also, were yall aware that harassment is a crime? Or is that another concept yall don’t get?

[toast-thief]

you’re a pathetic loser. please seek employment instead of harassing people who are more talented than you online.

I try to give out constructive criticism whenever I can because, don’t know about yall, but I actually like being given the opportunity to improve. if you can’t take advice maybe don’t post your art on a public platform. sorry I don’t encourage the echo chamber yall live in C:

Just finished my rebind of Andy Weir's Project Hail Mary.

This is definitely one of the case files used at Stratt's trial 🤭
