Compromise and correction ...

Its strange how the word compromise has the word "promise" in it, here the promise is too myself. In retrospect of my piece I realise how much faster I would of had it done if I was not so bent on perfection. But in defence of my perfectionism is it not in an artist soul to have a message in his art, even in a still life piece he should be saying "I feel these are beautiful in my mind" and hence go about a process in realising his vision.

Well My visions does not match my skill, which should be correct because I have not been at this that long. Here is where the post modern world wrecks a new artists, it has all been done; and if inspired by something that has been done you are always somehow in its shadow.

I feel my work in still life and oil is far from done, and something that I can see myself doing at least weekly. By the time I am 60, I should of gained some true insight :)
