Semicolons and Periods

A visual artist is as sensitive when to change direction of a drawn line as a writer is sensitive when to use a semicolon.

A visual artist is as sensitive when to end a drawn line as a writer is sensitive when to end a sentence.

The above is in response to a writer criticizing me for using too many semicolons as he found them disruptive—a concept new to me.
