Hmm... I really haven' seen good advice yet, at least not a whole post of it. I wouldn't lock myself in my room, it's childish. Shutting everyone out of your life because you're pissed at the world or one person isn't going to fix it. And just becaus your dad knows you're pissed isn't going to make him change his mind. Unless of course you're one of those daughters that has their dad wrapped around their finger. Most problems aren't fixed by avoiding them, they just creep up later because it wasn't handled.
Confronting him directly at present moment isn't the best solution either. Going into an arguement hot headed does no good. You need to make sure you approach him when both of you are level headed. You also need to make sure that you can control your own emotions, and let any negative comments roll off of your back, or it's going to turn into a screaming match where you each just take stabs at each other trying to verbally injure one another. If you can't go into a conversation of such nature without losing your composure, I'd suggest letting your father know that you couldn't give a rat's ass what he thinks about your work and not ask his opinion anymore because his opinion is shit in your eyes.
Unless he's an expert on art and critiqueing it, you shouldn't put so much faith in his opinion anyway. Realise that some parents just won't be happy with what their children do. If this is the case, there will be no pleasing him, even if you're ruler of the world. He'd still give nothing but negative comments on what you should have done differently to get where you did.
The ultimate way to handle the situation in my opinion would be to take a walk or whatever it takes to calm you down, then plan out a conversation with your father while you aren't all riled up. If you can do that, confront your dad and see if you can get him to speak to you about the subject with out throwing around insults. Basically challenge him to have a grown up and professional conversation. If he's not willing, or capable of doing so after you get started, let him know. Tell him you'll speak with him when he isn't going to be an ass about it, and to come get you when he's ready to have that conversation. Leave it at that, don't pursue it with him any further. If he insists, let him know he's too agitated to have a normal conversation with. Let him know you do want to finish the conversation, just when he isn't so heated about it. You have to stay calm yourself through the whole thing, or you're not going to get any where. You also have to be prepared for the fact that your dad just might not like what you're doing, and he's never going to give you good input. If that is the case, accept that. No law says you have to involve your father in your art if he can't support you at it.
You may never get to the bottom of your father's opinion, or why he feels that way, but if you can stay calm, and so can he, you should be able to reach a common ground, even if that common ground is that he doesn't approve of what you're doing. Understand nothin you do will change that if it happens to be. You will just have to move on with out your fathers input.
I wish you the best of luck in dealing with this situation, Angel. I've got an ass hole of a dad too, so I feel your pain and anguish. I learned that he's unimpressed, with whatever his children do. I talk to him as much as is necessary to get on in life, but unless it's an opinion of his that I feel he's knowledgeable in, I don't bother asking his input and look else where for advice. Of course this is much easier not living at home. Hope I've helped a bit at least.
