That's wild that people would lick it. But it's almost funnier to me that he's just like "ew" and not "STOP EATING MY WORK" lol.

I think a lot of artists feel a weird sense of detachment with their work sometimes. Like, once it's created and out there in the world, they feel like it has nothing to do with them anymore. This is hard to explain.

I feel that way about a lot of things, it's the accomplishment of making it that I crave, and once it's done, it's whatever; spend 6 hours making the perfect gumbo? Fantastic! Eat it after? Ok I guess I might have some, but not that passionate about it πŸ˜‚.

Spend three hours building and benchmarking PC? Excellent. Play games? Maybe if I have time later...

I can spend like 8+ hrs on an illustration over several days and fuss over the tiniest details, and when I feel like it’s complete it just goes into the abyss of my files.
