WELL!l I come back and I find this has been moved to beginners! I obviously DONT fit in here... this was meant to be impressionistic, which is why it was drawn quickly, and if Im being penalised for drawing quickly ( anyone heard of Rolf Harris?) then it seems pointless to use this site- yes I agree that taking ones time often does equate to better work- but I had an exhibition of painting in September 2004 at Burslem School of art in Staffordshire . England ( where Clarice Cliffe learned to paint pottery) and some of those A1 sized paintings were done in 10 minutes. I was experimenting in the same way here... sorry to be too ARTY! I promise not to bother you again. anyone who wants to get in touch my email is MALLABANDBROWN@aol.com .... sorry to be in a snit about this, but I moderate a website too- and I think I should stand up for myself (just occassionally)
