Family & work colleagues don't appreciate the work you've put into your art. And it's not only you @scienceoftheidiot @scribbledbyhand @omg-okimhere

Take Jack Vettriano - Scottish Painter:

The painter grew up in Methil and left school at 16 to become an apprentice mining engineer.

He only took up painting as a hobby in the 1970s when his girlfriend bought him a set of watercolours for his 21st birthday.

In 1987, at the age of 36, he decided he wanted to take up painting professionally and applied to study fine art at Edinburgh University but his portfolio was rejected.

His father would talk down his art aspirations, wanted him to get a "proper" job - in engineering with a pension.

Painter Jack Vettriano, whose work has been labelled as 'dim erotica', but sells for hundreds of thousands of pounds has criticised the art establishment for snubbing his work.

Vettriano's most famous painting The Singing Butler, featuring a couple dancing on a beach despite an approaching storm, sold for almost £750,000 at auction in 2004, was rejected for display at the Royal Academy summer exhibition after it was completed in 1992. It has since appeared on prints, posters and even Marks and Spencer biscuit tins.

The artist, who often paints women in stockings, heels and suspenders, said: 'There are days when I think, 'What is it they (critics) don't like about me? To be honest with you I just don't think they see sex as a serious subject. If I was painting drug use or inner-city violence they'd consider that to be art. They think what I paint is just titillation. It's not titillation, it's what every couple does on a Saturday night'.

Despite his immense popularity with the public, Jack Vettriano has often been the recipient of more negative comments from art world.

Throughout the years, his work has been described as twee and chauvinistic, with his more erotically-charged material written off as 'pornography'.

However, his work has sold for thousands, and he is believed to be Britain's most reproduced artist - making thousands from versions of his paintings.

Scottish art historian Duncan Macmillan once said of Vittriano: 'He’s welcome to paint so long as nobody takes him seriously.'

And Guardian art critic Jonathan Jones said: 'Jack Vettriano is no 21st-century Van Gogh. He is the Tom Jones of art: big, bold, brassy and devoid of inner truth.'

Jones added: 'The world of Jack Vettriano is a crass male fantasy that might have come straight out of Money by Martin Amis.'

Sandy Moffat, head of drawing and painting at Glasgow School of Art, said: 'He can’t paint, he just colours in', while Richard Calvocoressi, former director of The Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, said: 'I’d be more than happy to say that we think him an indifferent painter and that he is very low down our list of priorities (whether or not we can afford his work, which at the moment we obviously can’t).

Vittriano himself has said of criticism that his popularity is down to the prints and greetings cards, that Van Gogh and Monet would have been in favour of selling reproductions, telling Radio 4 in 2013: 'Let me put this to you, if Van Gough were alive, if Monet were alive, and you were to say to them, "look, you can sell a print to a Frenchman for 10 francs", they would have jumped at the chance.'

omg-okimhere said: And that’s kind of insulting or hurtful, too. Like [why] would they think you would plagarize art?

I think it was not consciously hurtful, more like, a disguised compliment ? Sometimes people go this way, idk.  

This also usually goes right before “I don’t get why you still bother with science!” and it IS what she said afterwards hahaha.  Which is even more infuriating because apparently I can’t like both… also  people have absolutely no idea how hard being an artist is ? Like dude, science now allows me to get paid over the average worker pay, even if I don’t have a lifetime job, I have opportunities, and I’m extremely qualified. In art ? I’m merely a good illustrator, and even, I don’t do backgrounds. This is fun and I will probably sometime in the future sell some of my already done stuff, but I will never be able to feed myself off it - people far greater than me at art already have a lot of problems doing so. 

And about plagiarism… Instagram is RIPE with it. People, everyone, keep reposting stuff because “it looks good” without any credit. In the beginning, I’ve made my own IG account to fight off recurrent uncredited reposts of some of my art pieces… so I think in this case she’s right to think that, sadly. 

But still, yeah… it’s annoying. Very few people get past these kinds of comments IRL, which is why I very rarely show my stuff to people there. The internet is a far more welcoming place (especially about fan art).
