What makes a client crappy? These days, you'd think any client would be welcome, especially for artists who have seen their markets dry up quicker than most "needed" commodities.  For a "starving artist", any client is a good client. Right? Well, no. There are some clients that are just bad people, and they want to inflict their sorrow/curse on everyone they deal with. This is especially hard for an artist to take. Artists tend to be more emotional, more committed to their work, and much less to think that it's "Only Business, Nothing Personal" when it comes to anything related to their creations.
