Couldn'...@ Jeff, that baseball analogy is great. Couldn't have said it better. THere was a lot of talk at Illuxcon about being on the escalator of art and everyone is on it together but we are on a different part of it, some higher and some lower, but all moving together. <br /><br />@Fred, Thanks! They were great to work on :) Can't wait to see how they turned out in the book.

I mean, we always (I assume we do at least) give it 100%. Even so, sometimes it doesn't turn out as well as we wanted.<br /><br />Think of it in terms of baseball. Not every time at bat will be a grand slam home run. Some times you bloop it in to center field...some times you even strike out. It doesn't mean you're half-assing it.<br /><br />We also get better over time (as long as we keep doing it). I have a stack of stuff that I want to revisit and revamp. My skills are better now than when I originally worked it, so I want to spruce it up (rarely happens due to being busy as hell...but a couple pics I've been able to re-do with a current skill-set to good results.<br /><br />Your work is really good. Perfect? Shit, no such thing. Look at Todd Lockwood's gallery. Look at the early work versus current stuff. I can guran-fuckin-tee you he has some pics he looks back at and cringes over. I look at his early B&W stuff and know I can do the same if not better. I look at his current color stuff and cry a little inside as I couldn't touch it with a studded stick.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02269727660667017348noreply@blogger.com
