I used to have a pretty big ego years ago. Being the 'artist' of my friends and always finding myself the better of the students in the high school art classes and so on. It was only when I began studying properly and seeking critique did I have a massive fall and it was devestating, I'm thankful I wasn't stupid enough to argue with the people who gave me advice because it was very very good advice. Though now im trying to pull myself back in the other direction, to see the value in my work, its a difficult thing for some of us to do, to see our own worth.
