I did pastel portraits from life in a very crowded public setting for two summers -- and believe me, there was a LOT of driftwood.
Driftwood was actually too kind a term for some of the folks who stopped by. Depending on your setup (I was facing away from the crowd so people could see the work) a few people would behave as if you were not really there or that you were part of the furniture.
I don't remember any of the specific comments (it was a very long time ago) but I learned quickly to ignore it. The comments from the driftwood in the crowd were more than outweighed by the positive things said by the great majority of people who stopped by.
