Never been comfortable about the idea of Nuking...

Aside for the fact that the art in question is old and is not actually lost as I have a back up of it, I do have a question on the concept of nuking stuff.

I do not want to make it seem like I am ashamed of these pieces, or any piece I draw honestly, but the reason I am thinking of cleaning them up just to have a bit more organization within the page.

ON THE OTHER HAND, I always feel like any time an artist deletes old work, it sucks. Even if their art has improved by leaps and miles, it still feels weird that they would go to the effort to delete it, especially if it may have had an interesting concept or inspired others. (For the record, I do not think my art is at that level, especially my old art, ) Especially how the internet is, it can be really hard to find an old image that inspired you that no longer exists. As a result, I would feel a bit like a hypocrite if I still did it. However, I am not sure I want my old art to go or stay in some fashion simply because of the amount, the quality and the thoughts of self worth and everything.

I am probably going to think about this for a bit, but if anyone had any opinions, feel free to share.

[Also, authors note: If you are an artist who frequently scrubs your gallery, I was not aiming this journal at you. It is your art and you are free to do what you wish with it. I do not want it to make it seem like I was calling anyone out :P]
