Well! We all agree again! "If it looks good it is good!"

Painting is deception. I just think the more respectful we are to the subject in all its parts the better the deception works.

We've all seen painters that paint from their imagination. It shows everytime. It lacks form and depth and correct color and good light, every time. The other end of that is to paint precisely what you see form nature. Now, we all fudge for artistic reasons and those reasons increase through the years as we learn more.

When we best fool people the work seem as if you can see miles into the canvas.
