It can sometimes be hard to separate the artist from their art. Are there any artists who were bad people but whose work you still enjoy?
Feel free to answer if you’re in the opposite scenario: an artist who you love personally but don’t enjoy their artwork.
Feel free to respond more than just music artists!
Aside from dictators (who are by definition very, very shitty people, but almost always have an art career for some reason), assuming actors don’t count as artists, I’d have to say the only example I can think of is Butch Hartman, not shitty because of his character but because he’s like the other JK Rowling.
To answer the second question, literally all the e-artists I’ve ever met, though art is relative enough I don’t feel like art can have a “negative” value. I trust they will never see this.
If by “e-artist” you mean “artist/illustrator that makes art digitally and posts it online” then… Uh… Well, one artist has seen this. ^^;

One that I’ve met? By that I mean one I’m in near-daily contact with… they’re the friendliest people I’ve met and was answering as an honest thing, not really judging them as a whole. I’ve noticed I’m waaaay more likely to strike up a friendship with such people and that really good artists in my opinion end up feeling more like NPC’s.
