I'm sure if you try something that excites you we will all love it, too. In the meantime... keep on painting what you love!Kelley Carey MacDonaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14667693715096070393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136908675776802633.post-76358874284537032902008-07-24T17:51:00.000-06:002008-07-24T17:51:00.000-06:00Qiang, we are NEVER BORED looking at your beautifu...Qiang, we are NEVER BORED looking at your beautiful work.

The question to ask is "are YOU tired with your paintings?" I check your blog daily and have never failed to be amazed by your work, including your "new" approach. I find when I am happy with my art, it shows, and leads to changes in my "style" without a deliberate effort change.Carol Schiff Daily Paintinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03992811279109092289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136908675776802633.post-13126032861173028932008-07-22T23:58:00.000-06:002008-07-22T23:58:00.000-06:00Never bored!

I enjoy each direction I grow into, and I would never want to make work that only pleases other people. <BR/>Your paintings has always been superb, but your last one, for me, is something even greater. With your solid technique and background, you can take on any other styles and make them awesome, and your own. I'd say go have fun.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00227584965281381330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136908675776802633.post-54465620512010896642008-07-22T15:05:00.000-06:002008-07-22T15:05:00.000-06:00Qiang, what you are talking about is a trap too ma...Qiang, what you are talking about is a trap too many artists fall into. The trap is they change their work to please their patrons and viewers. The artists who continue to grow are those who stay true to themselves, who continue growing upward rather than outward. You are absolutely right to stick to your typical style. If it feels right and comfortable to you, then you will grow WITHIN it and there will be on limit to your growth. Your feeling in a slump right now is a natural process we all experience. Hang in there, keep painting in a way that feels RIGHT for you and the rest will come.Dianne Mizehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06290943648650327077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136908675776802633.post-51070535907794646062008-07-22T14:42:00.000-06:002008-07-22T14:42:00.000-06:00Qiang, I love your paintings and check you blog da...Qiang, I love your paintings and check you blog daily. If you are personally getting bored one area you might considering tinkering with is your edges.
