What makes a person act rudely to an innocuous request to see photos not manipulated in Photoshop? As an art student, I love looking at all types of images. I would say the person who asked for that probably does, too. So, why, Mr. Tillman, did you respond so rudely? And incredibly defensive also. Couldn't you have said, sure, okay? Or, sorry, I only work in this medium? Whatever talent you possess is indelibly tainted by your offensive behavior. I'd just like to add that you, as an artist, ought to know more than most there are no rules in art anyway.
