I love all the paint splatters in the first - and the blueness of it.

Then perhaps it is "best" in the context of that. But they both have qualities that are special. The composition of the second one is very interesting and the value differences are lovely. But using cold colors for the human form is something that is so outside what we are accustomed to, it makes the first one very appealing, and ironically there is something about the lines and all the splotches combined with this unexpected use of color that enhances its humanity. It's strong and flawed and beautiful just like all of us.jujhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05297173587055224228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13375959.post-40493945558530597322007-05-05T04:13:00.000-04:002007-05-05T04:13:00.000-04:00Best in what way?

Although I think that the dark lines are just a bit too heavy in the top one, I agree that it has something special and i think there's a beauty and uniquness to it - like the foot has just been lifted out of waterbiteyourowntailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15723390742551493277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13375959.post-4697298095668696912007-05-04T21:57:00.000-04:002007-05-04T21:57:00.000-04:00I like both feet...the first does look more in the...I like both feet...the first does look more in the Charles Reid style minus his usual color palette and the second is more interesting because it is laid in a setting and you did a nice job with the values.picklesandroses.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07656580922367962385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13375959.post-56237174848643353782007-05-04T20:15:00.000-04:002007-05-04T20:15:00.000-04:00OH YES!!
