I think Mr. Martinez meant to direct his comment to Rebecca, the artist, mistaking Rochelle for the artist.
Tom, your critique is in line with mine. We are of the old school, where line technique was more the focus. Perhaps the old school is for the old students. Critiques are only as good as the value placed on them.
In some way, the modernists were right, who complained if you copy a photo, you just have a copy of a photo, not art. In my view, it is the line that makes the art. Otherwise, your work is just like everybody else's who copies for photorealism.
