Why this website? This picture explains why.

This is how I feel, when I have to witness others seeing my work. I often get sick just from hanging art shows, imagining the criticism. Though this sketch wasn't imaginary--my landlady and her boyfriend looked through my sketchbook. They were both grad students in psychology, so they very generously explained all my aberrations and deficiencies, as revealed in my art.

After all, what are friends for?

The Net is better: its loose meshes let you all swim in and out, peering at my insides all you like... but at least I don't have to know.
