Hi Cynthia,
I see your point. However, if I were a pro who was overloaded with email requests, I just wouldn't answer them, or I'd answer them with the response that I don't have time to do private email critiques.
It takes years for an artist to go from being a pithed frog to a tough old shrew in the face of indifference or criticism. I am just pointing out that it's harder to undergo this process in public rather than in a relatively private venue, as in a conversation with your crusty art teacher. Ultimately, the people who persevere are those who make art because they have to.
Best regards,
Linda
