There are tons of genres for painting, sculpture, and illustration. Painting: 1) Impressionism; 2) Cubist; 3) Color field; 4) Social realism; 5) Realism; 6) Abstract; 7) Non-objective; 8) Op art; 9) Pop art; 10) Pre-Renaissance Christian; 11) Asian art (broad category that includes unique attributes of dynasties and countries; and more.

As a artist should I strive to emulate the founders of these genres or strive to move forward?

Rob, did Frank actually say the above, or is that your sentiment?


No, absolutely not! The quotation ends at  the ... after the word gone.

Worse, I posted the incomplete post by accident by hitting post instead of preview and went on to write more on the topic. The next thing I saw was your post, which took me by surprise, as you can imagine! I then went back and cancelled it, only to discover that no, it had not been cancelled at all, the final, longer one had vanished! I think I shall have to abandon the iPad for writing and keep it for reading!

Cock-ups like that take the enthusiasm away, as of now. The hell with rewriting the post!

No, it's not over: the original, prematurely sent one has indeed gone, but so has the finished one, and all that survives is the thing in you reply.

If you wish I will remove my post with your rough draft.

I too use an iPad but have a physical, bluetooth keyboard which makes things easier.

How about explaining -- in detail -- what you mean by "move forward," Keith?

Thanks, Omer, please do!

I find the problem is with dexterity: my fingers are just too clumsy to work well in tight spaces like that.

Hi Keith. It's been a while and I'm still waiting for your definition of "move forward."
