Yuqi Wanged!

These young ones are going to clean our clock!

The very creme de la creme are going to the top with this kind of training. Lest you think that this is the purview of the Academic Realists, need I remind you that Degas and Klimt went through this kind of training. They had the confidence and wings to be able raise their work to extraordinary and imaginative heights.

I am sorry I did not have this training and how much time I have spent reinventing the wheel.

Anybody who is a figurative artist, who doesn't want to work this hard and learn their 'craft' from photographs, should consider pottery instead.
