answers1: If they can't determine the 'meaning' of your work you
didn't express it in your art and they would have to ask. So since
they did NOT ask, they figured it out on their own.
answers2: I wouls say all that matters to them is how good the
drawings were...they will let u know
answers3: Art instructors are less interested in the meaning of your
work than the visual appearance. It can mean one thing to you and
something entirely different to another viewer. (They call this the
"death of the artist", as in, once it leaves the hand of the artist,
the work is separate from the artist.) <br>
They want to know if you have the fire in the belly to continue to
produce work and if you have the drive to become a professional. That
path leads through exhibition. Can you keep coming up with ideas?
Can you meet deadlines? Is your work crafted sufficiently that it
will stand up to packing, travel and unpacking for exhibition? <br>
Like it or not, it is gallery owners, curators and the buying public
who decide whether you are an artist, at least in your lifetime. That
is not to say one should cater to them, but that your work has to
engage them, be unique and evolving.
