one of the nicer things about being an artist is that whoever you might be jealous of for their success, they're probably *really* good.
And, I mean, the main place where I differ from what I was taught is imho everyone actually deserves success. Or maybe nearly everyone, or something like that.
the other thing is that *usually* other artists are pretty awesome. Usually. I know there are some stinkers and just the usual run of *unintentionally* jerky.
