Art communities have a reputation through history of being sick, full of envy, full of hatred, hate and egocentrism and as a visual arts student, I can say by experience that some... "circles" still work like that, specially in fine arts and museum related stuff. But what surprised me here, is how nice and hepful people are, it's the same in person among illustrators and it's really easy to get along and befriend people! It just happens sooner or later if you're active in the community.
