[QUOTE=Chris Saper]
Here is what will surely send me to the nether reaches of portrait hell: I don't really get the concept of creative juices. I work from the left side of my brain every bit as much as from the right side. I believe there is a logical approach to most of the decisions that need to be made throughout a painting's process.
I think to be a successful portrait artist one has to use a large portion of the left side of the brain. It is amusing when my colleagues in the world of accounting are shocked to learn I am studying portrature, or when my fellow art students learn I am an accountant by day! Thanks so much for the positive advice, it helps me believe I can begin painting portraits from life. The final walk through on our townhouse is next week, so I will have my studio somewhat set up by Christmas
