technology frustrates me

But then again, most things do.

I hate Dreamweaver 8 even more than Dreamweaver in general. So since I'm a gimp, I'm going to show you these this way:
Paintings I've been working on...not including the massive canvas that I will only show when it's done.

portrait assignment (classmate).
we were supposed to use patches of color, very little blending.
not my best work, but a good exercise by far. i tend to lean too much on the fan brush.
prof. likes it, so it's a-ok with me.

detail 1
detail 2
detail 3

And the other assignment was to paint 15 small paintings of the same thing. I chose my LJ icons. Because a) that's nerdy and b) I like taking digital images back into wet pigment. they were supposed to be quick exercises. I am by no means, quick so they're somewhere in-between.
25 of these will be used for a scholarship show.

EXXXXCELLENT. I can no longer tell if that painting is effective/good or not.
Thank you.

I get to that point sometimes. Fear not. If something is crap I will tell you so keep posting.
I am the beginning and end of all worthy opinions.

Will it go something like this?
