Critiques...Is Now TIPS & TRICKS

OUR ONLINE SERVICES HAVE CHANGED!

RATHER THAN PROVIDE CRITIQUES we are now going to simply utilize the many questions that have come throughout the years to place TIPS & TRICKS ONLINE. Some times the concerns will be about materials for painters; other times the information will be about issues that arrire in a growing and changing creative process. Will will try to distance from 'opinions' and merely present our perspective...How you use it will depend on where and what you are looking to do.

1. A Critique of Your Work? No, but eventually, as more and more info goes online the closer you will get to learning one of the best TRICKS a painter has - How to honestly critique their own work...At least to a level that you can feel comfortable with reviewing it with someone who has more knowledge than yourself. The TIPS you get all help you to grow into the process and it is generally good for artists to 'see' where they are needing a little tweek!

But artists can be overly critical of their work so we will probably put some work up that will not be begging for nurturing! And like that most may find they are in better position than they thought.

A good dose of some historical thoughts and perspectives will get tossed into the mix and occasionally some TRICKS from the masters...But as there cannot be all 'masters' we will all take the info and help ourselves get a little better at what we love to do!

WILL THERE BE AN ORDER ARRANGED INTO THE POSTING OF INFO? More than likely No! LOL More than likely it will be a dash of this and a spoone of that and people will take what they need since it will all be Free!

Give us some time; give me some time is more like it! I would rather be painting and I remember things in the studio, only to forget them in front of the monitor... If you have not looked at pigmentsplus.com you may want to check the demo-videos and the 'What is Paint?' page. Think of it as a starting point or some basics and it will give you something to think about while I deliver on more 're-calls'!

And check out the photos at the tdpArts Gallery online to see some of the landscape surrounding Palenville NY since we use lots of these photos to explain a perspective to creative activity! More than 150 photos are up at this time. Some intimite motifs and even some of the classic motifs of the Hudson River School painters. The gallery is also the 'HAT'!...If you know what I mean by hat!(?)...Remember those photos when you need a greeting card or a gift! tdpArts Gallery online
