Mark, don't beat yourself up on this. Remember my mantra, "jeez, it's only paint!" I think you need to decide weather you want your work to be hard edge and dramatic, or softer and more naturalistic. The best way to do this is to try your next one as a WIP, using all the tips that people give you. Look up "edges", read the tips and technique section all the way through. When I started on this forum, I read every single post, 9:00am to 12:00pm was my study time. Then painted all afternoon and posted some pretty embarrasing stuff for critique. I'm still not comfortable with my "style" so to speak, but I'm miles ahead of where I would have been without all the work. Relax and enjoy the ride.

Jean
