TIME WARP!

Sweet

I would like to say thank you to the STAFF for taking the time to even look at my glossy boring stuff.... Im glad that you liked it.... and I appreciate it.

It really doesn't matter that some folks dont like my stuff.  I do however find it awfully rude to stop into a thread like this and cut folks down and make them feel like crap for something they did.

Quote - I said that they were glossily pretty, but to me they look more like Merchandise Showcase pics, than any thought provoking art. Where's the underlying message that all art should convey.

I dont need an underlying message all the time, sometimes we just like to do plain old art, or portraits. I am not here to start a fight, but why would you make a comment like that??  Have some courtesy and respect for other people would ya.

Again, thank you to the Staff!!

'ALL' ? An unreasonable comment and incorrect. I do not produce glossily pretty pictures, but maybe some people do, as an aside to the meaning within thier work,

As for lacking originality: take a snapshot of a critic's face and that single snapshot does not fully describe him/her. Take a series of images and a meaning or story may emerge, the longer the series and the closer to meaning we can get
