Daniel,

I agree that a high price doesn't necessarily make a person an ultimate authority. However, the two artists that I mentioned are highly regarded in the portrait field by many, if not most artists, which is why I used them as an example.

I also agree with you that a simple pat on the back doesn't help someone to improve. And, when I do web sites for artists, I'm honest with them about portraits that I feel aren't the best to include on their site. And, if I'm asked, I'll tell the artist why.

However, I did feel there were many more positive things going for Abdi's portrait than were being acknowledged.
