What NOT to do around an artist, musician, dancer or Actor:

A list of things for if you are
                                        a. In the presence of an artist (musician, dancer or actors too:)
                                        b. You are an artist
                                        c. Most importantly: If your friend is an artist.

both from experience and personal times of this happening to me... -_- ^

RULE ONE: If you are given or have art from someone else. DO NOT compare
    their art to the person next to you. Especially tell them that the other piece is
    better.

RULE TWO: Tell them their style is odd, it sounds funny, or something off or mediokre

RULE THREE: Ask them if it's finished.

And don't say, "OH MAH GAWD YOUR SOOOO GOOD LOL." Say something like,"I really like this because of the [    ]."

Don't say,"CAN YOU DRAW SOMETHING FOR ME?! :B" I hate when people say that to me.

Here's the thing. With me, constructive critism is the way to go, but when people say can you draw this (Sorry to say, I know, I'm kinda spoiled.), if it's candy coated in praise, sure I'll do it. Only if people are telling me you should draw this, I don't like. XD

I hate when people just start spazzing over my drawings XD

I think this is kind of universal with any kind of work.
