Today, it was my first big time art show. To celebrate I went out to lunch with some people whose work was also there. When we got back, police were everywhere. Someone had broken in and stolen all of the art. All except mine. Even burglars don't want my art. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found out that my art project, the one I've been working on for the last two weeks and the first piece I felt really comfortable about turning in, was stolen out of the art cupboard. FML
Today, after months of hard work, planning, and preparation, I held the reception for my first art show at a gallery. Nobody showed up. FML
Today, my business got broken into and I lost a lot of valuable equipment. Although I have 24/7 security guards, they left in the middle of the burglary because they were too scared to stop the burglars or even to call the police. FML
Today, my house was broken into. They didn't take much, but they did paint spunking cocks on the walls and furniture. FML
Today, my house was broken into. Apparently, I have nothing good enough in my house to steal, so they took my cake. FML
Today, after quite a long work day, I got home to find my house had been broken into. Everything but my sleeping boyfriend was gone. FML
Today, I hosted a "Night Out Against Crime" party at our local park. Only three people came, they robbed our fundraiser booth. FML
Today, one of my paintings was accepted into a local art gallery. It would've been a dream come true, had my "best friend" not submitted it under her own name and taken all the credit. FML
Today, I moved into my new apartment complex. I left some items including a cherished painting my best friend made for me outside the front door while I moved furniture into my bedroom. When I went back outside, someone had kicked a huge hole in the painting. Welcome to the neighborhood. FML
Today, I held an open house. Not wanting anything to be stolen I loaded up all valuables in my car (money, prescriptions, computer, iPod, etc) and went out. My car got stolen. Nobody came to the open house. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Seriously? You're lucky your hard work didn't get stolen so quit whining. For all you know, the burglars didn't take your art because by the time they reached yours, the alarm went off and they had to make a run for it, not because your art wasn't good.

This reminds me of another FML about a stalker not thinking the OP was attractive, and makes me wonder the same question- why would you WANT that to happen to you? maybe its not the kind of art theyre into. I'd be happy all my stuff wasn't stolen, someone else might buy it.

I can't believe you, I've never seen anyone more whiny and pessimistic in my whole life. If that was my work (and yes, I am an artist) I would probably be so thankful that I might just start believing in God again. Maybe they didn't steal your work because it's not their style, or they didn't have time to take yours. Even if they did just hate your art, it's a matter of taste and not everyone is going to like your art. If you're so naive and thin skinned as an artist that you can't accept that, how did you handle the critiquing and hard work it takes to get to gallery level?

That's what you get for going into art. Go contribute to society instead.

That's not an FML at all. See, if you're new, you should know that your work isn't nearly as valuable as older artists who are better known and can do more. Like 26 said, it's not about how talented you are. Like I said, you should know this. And why the HELL would you complain that you get to keep your art and be able to sell it?

#86- Just because you're ignorant doesnt mean you have to share your ignorant thoughts with the rest of the world. Art is an important part of society. Sucks, though at least your art can still be shown.
