Hi John, The Tigers were a big improvement. My only criticism is that the backgrounds need as much thought as the main focus of the painting. It looks like you spent a lot of time on the tigers and put the background in as an afterthought. Colors on the grass look a little too green or the sky is too blue etc. For an example of time, I would do a fully rendered photo real tiger in about 8 hours on a 20" x 30" board. It’s right that you shouldn’t do the easy stuff. When I first started out I would paint the hardest subjects I could find. As for never being happy with what you paint, that’s right too. As long as you are never happy with it then I will never be happy also. I think whether I like a painting or not is irrelevant. Were all here to learn and pick fault. Even though you are a beginner you’ve been painting long enough to be good, which you can see in your best work so if you post something not as good as your other stuff and say you are happy with it then that would wind me up but I don’t think I have been harsh. If I had posted that Lion and someone said they liked it I would have thought they were blind. When I paint a pinup my wife will say "Oh that’s amazing" but if there is even the tiniest mistake then I look at her and say " you what, can’t you see it". I am my worst critic and that’s the best way to be. Take everything else with a pinch of salt.

Hey John, No beating up needed on this one. I like the painting a lot. As Paul points out, the background could use some more attention and I know that’s sometimes hard. I always struggle with the background for some reason. Keep up that good work, Ed (a.k.a.
