I have a fan...drama
I was recently sent this email. I think Christine was trying to be slick and do the anon thing but she was still logged in. I don't know. I just thought I'd share some ugliness with y'all.
First, I think she was responding to a comment I posted to Nicole Moyer in Oct '03. This is what I said:
I rated it a 6 out of 10 (this was above average the last time I looked) "I'd call it "horse clusters- a study in asymmetry". I can respect the biased opinion of a mother, but I think a good lesson to be learned here is to roll with the critisism. It's just one person's opinion. The previous rater may hate horses and this picture evoked an emotional response. They may be tired of horse pictures. Maybe he slipped in horse poop and soiled his best Sunday suit- I can't say for sure. I do think that critisism should be constructive, but sometimes all you can muster is "more horses arses". Nicole, I think with some study of balance and angle you should do fine. Besides, Mary probably would be a fine mentor in this area- being a photographer too. Remember, when someone slings mud, catch it, dry it, and whip it back- I think that's what my mom said. Maybe she said, "duck!". Anyway, you have a nice country side there."

"You act as if your some big hot shot, but in al honesty and truth your art sucks. you attack a lil girl, you tell her it is for her own groth and learning but then I visit your pathetic art work on your Portfolio and I see nothing but art that shouldn't even be displayed! ????? My question to you is does it make you feel worth while to attack other more talented people since you yourself haven't a lick of creative juices flowing? Hmmmmmm. Take that Mud dry it, and sling it!
Sincerly, a person who is sick of rude people with lil good to say but plenty of harm to do!"
