# Where are you taking this?

# My plan is for
total photo realism in the manner of this lady www.faysartstudio.com/ and I am following her video tutorials on painter. The tutorials are excellent but it's not like a photoshop tutorial were you do this, do that to make the same as something else. It's just detailed descriptions of technique and I'm far from mastering some of them.

# man you just know that once you've mastered that someone just like one of us is going to accuse you of filtering or something :)

# I don't care or mind.
because I know filters inside out and I know there is nothing will do that for you.
Besides considering that she charges a minimum of $8000 for a small portrait you think I'll care what b3ta thinks if I feel I get skilled enough to take commissions?

# 30"X40" full length pose
is $30k. She is considered one of the most accomplished digital artists in the world and is one of Corel's 'masters'. She can of course do it just the same with paint and canvas.

# i think once you reach that stage of ability medium can't be that important
i'm sure someone like that could do a portrait with sand and pritt-stick :) there's something not quite right with her eyes though, there's something missing

# ah i see
hopefully yours will be less creepy than hers!

I dunno bout that whole thing, Photorealistic is imprssive, but i still like a bit of human interpritation, you know, either the personality of the subjkect coming though..or that of the artist, or that of the situation between the two?

Im shite at art, but its what i like to see..

what are your thoughts on that?

# I'm ok with it up to a point
I just feel it's one of many styles and they all have a place.
I personally love abstract and wild colours ( even for portraits ) but it's just another skill I'm trying to learn. I figure that if you are at a point where you can paint something that people have to look at a few times to realise it's not a photo then everything else should come so much easier.
