How about a heavenly stream of light streaming under the "Orianas" name? Any other ideas on how to make it stronger?

I like the feedback Charles. Spot on. I need one of those drawing things for feet. She was wearing sandals in the original and they had to go.

I did notice the right foot seems to have been over cropped out. Looks abit to thin, un-natural. Not trying to be a critic. Just giving my opinion, Hope this helps. Peace out~ Charles

Hey ya Terry, Took a gander at Orianas, Looks good, Kinda plain. Seems the theme should mabe be abit more spicy considering the Allure part. Clean though.

Shameless self-promotion advisory: Please take a look at the Orianas graphic I produced. It took some serious work to create this one. I'd like your votes but would love your feedback even more.

apparently someone "flagged it for review". Artists have a very different definition of nudes as opposed to nudity.

no. they wrote me and explained that it was a nude. taltopia and I have a very serious interpretation problem

Hi Artist. I checked out the image that was pulled. It's beautiful. May I cast a vote for the one that got away?

Yea, she got lucky, haven't been in touch with her I like the quote, may look her up. BTW the TOC probably has to keep advertisers happy, with the re-appropriated "Birth of Venus" allowed it makes me wonder.

Oh, Kim, tell your friend "fair winds and following seas" for me. Hawaii, huh? tough duty!

if you all desire to go to this contest and vote for my replacement "tummy tuck #3" that's also up to you. My further participation in this site depends on their answer.

...among other "less complimentary" phrases. And as a "known" medical illustrator, I fully intended to enter similar images in other contests where appropriate. Now, if you all feel like contacting them, fine...

Taltopia informed me that they withdrew it because it had violated the TOC. I wrote back (haven't heard yet) that they must have missed the medical illustratory aspects including the cancerous masses depicted.

I have some distasteful news to report. I entered a graphic I created for Breast Cancer awareness (go to my profile, it's still there) in the popularity contest.

Commission work is great, especially in fine art. I am being selfish and painting for myself right now, until I find work. My apologies, I seem to take things too personal.

But that's me. you all are different and have very different dreams and desires.

not to mention the year off from commissions while I painted "what I wanted to paint"... luckily for me, I was able to donate every single one of them to charities and raised a hell of a lot of money for worthy causes,

I did a one man show once several year back... cost me 10 grand in frames, publicity, space in a gallery and of course that opening (catered)... sold one for $500. Will NEVER do that again.

did so and "slept well at the end of the day" I'm content to try to please others, making sure that I'm pleased before I hand it to them

If doing onto others (commissions only) visa vi Rockwell, Parrish, AB Frost and my favorite Michaelangelo

I have always been (other than in the Navy) and always will be a commission only artist. The customer tells me what they want and I do my best to meet their criteria.

Today alone, I had over 35 emails through my web site and several here, asking me for contacts or referrals.

Kim, in no possible way, was I talking about you specifically. I speaking generically of a bunch of my art students who think that once they show their talent, that all things are possible.

I also sell my portraits here and there. I was wondering do any of us actually just do ONLY what we want.? Not what someone else exspects, or ask for. But do what we choose? for a living... does that make sence?
