I think the point of debating tight vs loose is missing the boat entirely. Far too many are seduced by the finish when the underlying structure is what makes a painting good is immensely more critical. I see far to many aspiring painters trying to copy the surface effects of artists they want to emulate with no understanding as to why those particular paintings work.
To me, it is like trying to pick out an umbrella according to the color of the fabric.
I believe that good painting will always outsell trendiness, in the long run. We should therefore be true to ourselves and not try to second guess the fashion of the moment.
