I think cartoons are more fun and more expressive than life sketches, especially for people who are just starting.<BR/><BR/>I've always admired artists who inject a good kinetic feel into their art more than artists who have great detail work or realism. Detail work and realism can be used as crutches, if you aren't careful.<BR/><BR/>I know I've used them that way in the past. :)Craig Perkohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13173752470581218239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11758224.post-1147996279184870592006-05-18T16:51:00.000-07:002006-05-18T16:51:00.000-07:00Err, thanks.
