i don't think feedback = any indication of how "good" an artist you are - with the understanding that even the shittiest artist can produce "good" artwork and the best can produce things that aren't so great. i don't know a lot about art as a whole, but i would think that plenty of great artists got very little to no feedback at first. much less good feedback. it would be sad to see you give up for that reason. i think you're very talented and being artistic/creative also seems to be cathartic for you, the way writing is for me. personally even if i just write lj entries and nothing else for the rest of my life - well i'd like some recognition and validation too, but i'd be at least somewhat ok with that. i think! haha.
