I am so glad to hear you express the abusive nature of the gallery "industry"! It puts artists into competition with each other when "art" and "competition" should never be uttered in the same sentence. I'm even gladder that you turned your focus to creating marvelous decks for readers like me. It's good that you have a way to actually make a living in a medium that gives so many people access to your talents. Also, I'm sorry that you were the victim of malicious sniping--that person was obviously speaking from her own self-doubt. Bravo for turning that into a positive for your own path!
Thanks for your words -- if you want to make sure that Siolo reads them, please consider reaching out to her via mail, or on Instagram (@siolothompson). I'm sure she'll appreciate that a lot!
I don't know why but watching a guy just sit there and share his/her true heart is more touched than I expected...Maybe we are just losing such kinds of ''program'' in this age of image consumption...
Thanks! The channel got a lot lf attention over the weekend due to the Dwarf Fortress video - so it makes me really happy that a non-game-related video got your comment. 🌈 The channel wants to bring together all sorts of media, materials and philosophies - let's see where this all leads :)
That's a horrific thing to say in the first place, and should make you worry about that persons mental health, not doubt your own abilities. Any person worth listening too would offer constructive criticism anyway, if they saw anything worth mentioning. Your talent speaks for itself in the paintings. Please don't let anything stop you from doing that if you really want to.
Yeah my thoughts exactly. It's a fact that many artists are sensitive people who are already self critical as it is, so hearing this is crushing. And it's always the other person just projecting, acting out of jealousy, or being so arrogant that they take their own opinions as fact. But their comments tap into our own insecurities. This hapenned to me too.
wow so even little whispers of evil has put lot's of doubt in her mind. Her art skills is FUCKING impressive and even a person as talented as her can have severe doubts.. it's a bitter sweet thing. It sucks she is plagued with negative thoughts that's the bitter part. The sweet part is knowing that when evil thoughts try to convince me I suck, I can think of people like her and be like "whatever demon.. you just talk to shit all the time, GTFO"

I know my comment might not mean much but I really like her large paintings
+Kgosi Letimile I will tell her! I also think that these works rock. Saw most of them in her studio - they are awesome!
On Doubt they are and also tell I'm sorry she had to go through that but people will always be.....people
I like her.
Siolo is amazing. Check out her Linestrider tarot deck!
I'll release the full video later this year 🍃
@@OnDoubtI know this is 5 years old, but if you still log into this account, I'd love to see the full video if possible!
As a commissioned portrait--your work is really unique, modern and transcendent. Love them.

Powerful art without sacrificing her yin--
