you think it's possible to be "too critical" of art?
i think criticism of art is meaningless
art IS meaningless. it only has meaning when we apply meaning.

I guess "freshies" means snow in CO? Because around here "freshies" have a totally different meaning....

Subtle wrote:The shading is a little funky, but I think it pretty clearly shows that the left legs are closest to the viewer, which is how it should be obviously. I guess if you think about it and look at it a lot your eyes can start deceiving you.

As for the Israel/Palestine print, I think proportionally they are exactly how they should be. I can see how the fingers sticking out the curtains may be aesthetically unpleasing to someone though.
Please keep art critiques out of the release discussion please. :wink: :)
