I'm just doing the best that I can at that time, with that subject and, in this case, within the time constraints. This was just a 30 minute pose, which is chump change for the way I like to apply paint.Jean Spitzerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13520415864511680025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596223475426533484.post-948978207308484422010-10-12T23:55:32.888-05:002010-10-12T23:55:32.888-05:00I was curious, because you can play in many differ...I was curious, because you can play in many different styles. So I guess my question was, do you decide to paint in a particular style before you see the subject, or does the subject suggest the style.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596223475426533484.post-72150421176569968262010-10-12T22:47:37.113-05:002010-10-12T22:47:37.113-05:00Thanks, all.

I obviously don't get the concept of leaving well enough alone.<br /><br />AH,I was puzzling over how to answer this and my daughter said, "Just say the subject determines the technique." I say, they influence each other, but really both technique and subject are come from the artist: a work is kind of like a handprint, unique to the maker.Jean Spitzerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13520415864511680025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596223475426533484.post-2426712188923658952010-10-12T12:13:12.479-05:002010-10-12T12:13:12.479-05:00Does the subject determine the technique, or the t...Does the subject determine the technique, or the technique define the subject?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596223475426533484.post-48154284896951256002010-10-12T10:13:18.048-05:002010-10-12T10:13:18.048-05:00Ah, I see you’ve changed your second paragraph a b...Ah, I see you’ve changed your second paragraph a bit.
