New and Improved?

Journal Entry: Tue Oct 20, 2009, 4:46 PM


I've put almost everything that I've submitted into storage.
In the past I was pretty anxious just to get things uploaded and online without any real thought about the quality of what I have been submitting.
I'm going though all of my old images and doing some editing and cropping and eliminating. Well needed housekeeping.
I'm not sure what happens to the deviations that people have picked as favorites. In time those deviations will be resubmitted and hopefully improved.
My eyes have been opened to the power and necessity of cropping. What has been seen can never be unseen. I need to start over with my entire gallery.
Well enough babbling, these deviations aren't going to submit themselves. PEACE to you all.:peace:

Of course the pleasure is mine. I think I'll enjoy watching your style develop very much.

The new streamlined gallery is impressive for it's liveliness and colour, I admire the looseness of style. So vibrant. Looking forward to the next pieces.

And congrats on self-editing! I regularly remove work that has started to bother me to make way for new things :D

I'm grateful for the watch, but these aren't oils. These are all done with children's tempera paint.
I use these for three main reasons, they dry very quickly, they are inexpensive and are completely 100% opaque.
I plan to move to oils when I more consistently get the results I want from my painting sessions.
Thanks again for your comment. :peace:
