QUACKCAST 433 - everyone is a beginner

Today we chat about a furore on Twitter focussing on a artist who made a tutorial about the differences between the line work of beginners and advanced artists. Many people identified their art style with the work described as “beginner” and took extreme offence at that characterisation. It's the contention of Tantz that “beginner” is not a dirty word. We're all beginners at something. We can all stand to learn things.
I don't necessarily agree that sketchy lines in art are the sign of a beginner, so much as they might indicate the artist needs warming up for the day or their subject is very unfamiliar to them… but putting that aside, the ability to accept advice, learn, and teach are very important.

This week Gunwallace has given us the theme to STEEPLEWIND. Groove on down to a track that’s smoother than satin sheets and twice as cool . Set the lights down low, pour a glass of red wine, and relax… This tune leads you gently by the hand into warmth and fantasy.
