I saw your work on Purity addicts site, so I barged on in.

"Ma" is very strong. Very strong.

Yeah sometimes the way you feel something isnt easy to put into words. Or the way i see a painting being in my head never turns out how i want it to.
Well you dont have to talk about it to make a living at art. Theres a ton of artists who dont give a single thing away and are doing very well. Dont let that discourage you.

Yeh i want to see what else you can do with that knife.

Yeah, a teacher at my school shows with Alex, a great find. But yeah I go to an art college in Chicago (Illinois).

I understand what you're saying, it's like that for everybody. We're all creative and want to just do our own thing but honestly I'm 10x the artist I was when i started. And to have peers around to guide you and teachers, you grow so much. They kind of break you down in the beginning and make you lose the bad habits and teach the basics, then you start to get creative again.
It's also good becuz you are forced to talk about your work, which is important if you're promoting yourself or trying to get into galleries. But if its not what you wanna do for a living then it's not necessary.

Yeah do some more work like that, because I have'nt seen much that looks like it. You could have something there...

Youre welcome. Are you in school for the arts or anything?

When I saw Jenny Saville it made more sense. If youre into her check out Alex Kanevsky, he's from California. He has some process posted on one of the first few sites when you type him in Google.

Haha funny thing, a friend of mine and I were talking online and I showed him your piece 'Ma' and I think we went on about it for a good 5 minutes. The fact that it's palette knife....man. Were both pretty envious.
:iconstmercenary:
very very very nice stuff, i cant wait to see more.
:iconpurityaddict:
Wow I cant believe your stuff hasnt been viewed more. You should fill out your info and stuff. I want to see more!

(Just noticed only added 7 hours ago) You SHOULD be getting some serious views with that work, otherwise the people on here just dont know good work.

Seeing the 'shoulder' in small view it really holds together nicely.

Sorry for swarming your page. I just really like the work.
