hi Cyndy,

nice to hear from you after ages!
I too have missed your perceptive comments and wondered if you have left DA or me!!
 I have always been weak on technical aspects like perspective, colour balance, light-and-shadow...I took up painting quite late and when realised there were two ways to go about - learn the nuts-and-bolts [theory as they call it] and THEN paint or simply go for painting for the issues you think are worth painting. Out of inertia I chose the second option. Not making virtue of my limitations, I admit them - but I always feel good when someone can see beyond them and at the subject matter, like you.
Mostly conventional 'artists' get stuck at technicalites. In the past I was quite discouraged from this venture by their incessant - this is wrong, that is wrong, this is not a painting...Now I am thick-skinned enough I believe!When you keep 'expert' approval and money out of it, sky is the limit.
