Ego on 'em huh. Luckily my parents divorced; imagine growing up with the fear of wondering whether you'll end up being just like him. no fun.
Actually, it wasn't the ego particularly that turned me off of art and artists. In this case, it was the tendency towards substance addiction and violence. It could have been anyone - but it happened to be an artist. You don't need to have an undiagnosed mental illness to be an artist and it doesn't help your art. This art experiment of yours seems healing-ish.

I imagine that this is true for most people, whether or not their parents affected them negatively. People like to bag on ego, but quite honestly, a healthy dose of ego is necessary for success. If you don't believe in you when no one else does, then you're not believing in. Or at least, that's what I think.imagine growing up with the fear of wondering whether you'll end up being just like him. no fun.
It is necessary for success you're right, but the only thing of comparable necessity for success besides yourself is the people around you. If a man is unable to put himself aside for the people he promised to provide for, there is no pride in his own well being. On a lighter note, now I know i was right about art and self reflection :D
