Different Art?
I make gothic/punk/weird dolls.And my friends and my family
all think i'm psyco or something,what should i do,i love my art work and i
don't plan to stop anytimwe soon.
ADVISOR REPLIES:
I know it may hurt when they give bad comments or even think you are
psycho,but just remind yourself it is your love and no one can stop u as
long as it is legal,. Explain it to them that u r serious about that and
one day they will soon realize that there is nothing wrong with you. tell
them patiently that u like it and try to gain support from them. talk to
them reasonably and nicely and i believe they will understand.-

Well, i think your art work is special ,you have talent ,and don't
ever give that up .Your families and friends might not understand why
you make those dolls ,why don't you show them how you make them and
what specialties that are in them..? Good luck !-

What you need to do, is explain to your parents and friends why you enjoy
doing this. Tell them that this is your way of expressing yourself and that
it may seem weird to them, but somethings they do is weird to you! (If it is)
If they can't except your artwork, you should have them go to counseling.-
This sounds interesting. Try explaining to your family that this IS art...maybe not the average Picasso but, still a creation that you made and have grown to love. Tell them that instead of doing drugs and drinking alcohol (this won't work unless you don't do these things) like some kids do, you would rather make these "unusual" creations. Let me tell you that if this is the worst of your problems in life, you're off pretty well. It's hard to be different in our society but do what your heart tells you to do and if that means expressing your artwork in this way, then go for it!
