Description I was a little apprehensive about painting this one since most of my talent lies in much darker paintings, but I think it turned out pretty good. :3

Want to hear an artist's horror story? There was this very annoying woman taking this class, and I pitied her because she was so incredibly annoying, that I think she was mentally ill. She talked the whole time (loudly) and kept asking for help, but then when she got it, she didn't like the help she was given, she wanted something different, or she wanted the colors to be exactly like the colors in the example painting, but the thing is, no painting is going to look exactly alike, even when you are all painting the same image.

But the worst part was when she turned around to look at my painting. She gushed and said how it was so good, and she liked the flowers on the bank below the barn. Then she proceeded to show me exactly which flowers she was talking about, and jabbed her meaty little sausage of a finger right into the paint. Now, I am not a violent person by rule, I'm pretty laid back and very patient, but I swear, my arm almost swept back to backhand the daylights out of her. I was so angry because I had moved on and cleaned my brushes and was working on another section of the picture, so I had to redo the whole bank because I didn't have those exact same colors anymore. :I

You don't touch an artist's work. You just don't.

Beautiful use of colour.  It has the "want to keep looking at it" factor!

This is a really great addition to your gallery.....maybe suggest to your grandfather (instructor right?) to do a psych test before sessions start

All told this is a very nice piece! And those are some pretty shnazzy flowers. I am also sorry to hear that the woman poked your painting. I don't blame you for being defensive about it. It is common law amongst artists that we do not physically touch each other's work.

I'm in love with your paintings~
I would totally watch over your shoulder the entire time as you painted something.
Or from a window, or keyhole...
Or maybe even
// bricked

Seriously though, you should definitely make a video process of your paintings!



Such restraint...  
 I don't think I could have held back like that...


I'm not sure how it looks compared to the way you originally had it done,
but the end result I see is still very beautiful~

Thank you~!
Ahhahaha I shall have to watch out for stalkers now

I never thought about it before (it takes a while, so I would have to put the video on fast forward, heh)

Aww, thanks~  (though I kinda hope she doesn't take another class ;3; )

PactMaker In reply to CobaltCupcakes [2014-05-06 03:03:17 +0000 UTC]

You're most certainly welcome!

And yes. Give it much thought,
because a process video would be awesome~

Someone like her doesn't need to be taking another class.
I'll keep my fingers crossed for you...
