So I guess my question is, to all the artist/content creators out there, how do you work through this? How do you un-anchor the value of your work from social media? How do you find motivation to keep going when the perceived feedback is... absent?

I struggle with this as well. Like, I'm not craving attention, but it feels bad to not get any hint that my work doesn't stink, especially since a lot of my stuff is pretty niche. I've definitely slowed down my art production because of it, but I can't stay away for long.
Social media plays with validation/emotions so much, it's kinda frightening. Regarding your art, I totally *totally* understand how difficult that's gotta be to operate in a different niche but I do want to say, I very much admire your dedication and skill!

I always half expect to find your artwork in a science textbook one of these days!
