Three Girlies
Lon, I'll give it to you from a different angle since Steven makes us all so lazy. You know, we just wait for him to make his posts....he covers about everything there is....then we just post something simple like "Ditto" or "Yeah, what he said."
Apart from the critiques (of which I agree with all) I think you have strong paintings. You are definitely aggressive and brave (more than I) to attempt these paintings. But remember, a photograph is a terrible thing to try and paint from if you haven't learned alot from painting from life. I speak of my experience, not yours. I still paint from life any chance I get. However, recently I have gotten more work to do from photos than ever before. An artist must make certain decisions about lighting and all the things associated with it to make a painting work from a photo.
You have the talent...you have an eye. I think you have strengths in some areas and need stregthening in others. You can't do anything but keep getting better.
