If you order a steak at a restaurant and it tastes like rubber, do you have to be grateful for it? No, because you paid money for a product that's not supposed to be inferior. If you were getting that art for free as a gift, THEN you'd have to be polite and pretend to like it even if it was hideous. But this isn't a gift. You paid for it. The artist is not doing you a favor, it's a business transaction.

You can always soft-pedal the criticism if you want, like, "Oh, I love the ______ but I was hoping for something more like __________". But bottom line is, if you're not happy with the product you paid for, the artist needs to know.

But you don't go back to the restaurant months later to complain about the bad steak and expect a refund. The time to complain has come and gone.

I don't know what it would take to get this to sink in but I think OP realizes that. That's why they're venting about it here instead of going back to the artist to complain at this time.
