At the risk of bugging you further I would ask that you look at a members stats before making certain commentary. I\'ve been registered on this forum for many moons now and I assure you that I do understand art, artistry and the implications thereof - no need to lecture me on it.
I mean, that kinda says it all right there, doesn\'t it? News flash: It\'s not all about YOU. The OP did no such \"lecturing\" of the sort. And here you think that it\'s somehow important that others recognize and respect your views on the basis of your post count?
It\'s arrogant, condescending, passive-aggressive, and completely distasteful. You took a perfectly fine thread with really lovely work, and polluted it with your own warped sense of self-importance. And I suspect that much of the reason why is because your ego doesn\'t permit you to feel any sincere acknowledgement that maybe, JUST MAYBE, someone else is more talented, more insightful, and more capable of an artist than you are, and the only way you can reconcile your self-image is to find whatever small excuse to knock them down a notch or two.
Just get over yourself already and leave the rest of us to enjoy the OP\'s work for what it is--a pure expression of portraiture.
