I Teach Creatives

Yes, @Liandro Roger is a rock star in the community, and does more to create a sense of community through these interactions than anyone else I’ve met here so far. In addition to all of what you said, @Stan Prokopenko , what I admire the most is Liandro’s ability to communicate such great, professional advice while still finding things to appreciate about the work, and leaving the recipient feeling uplifted and encouraged.
LESSON NOTES
Stan and Marshall return to the topic of art criticism to impart the secrets of giving and receiving the best critiques possible. They summarize why it’s good to critique people, what goals you should have when critiquing someone’s art, how to frame things positively for the person receiving the critique and more. This is only part 1 of the discussion. In part 2 they’ll change topics and focus on how to seek out good critiques and what makes someone “critiqueable”.

Thank you so much, Teresa! It was rewarding and heart-warming to read your comment! :) I had no idea I had been mentioned in the podcast LOL When I saw your comment, I went to listen to it, and it felt so cool to hear these awesome guys Stan and Marshall talking about my work. I'm really glad that I've been able to contribute with this growing community, I truly appreciate the opportunity and the trust Stan and the Proko Team have been giving me these past few years. I feel grateful that I'm able to work with something I deeply enjoy and believe in, and I really try to do it as best as I can. I'm very thankful for such kind words, @Teresa Bolen! :) And thank you so much, @Stan Prokopenko and @Marshall Vandruff, your acknowledgment is a super strong boost to me!
