Folks you should do build reviews - so many do not show there WIP (Work in Progress)

Agree with Banjer. Apart from WIP threads on this and other web sites I have done articles for modelling magazines, and I found I was doing more photography than painting. Also, having to think about what I was doing so that I could relate it coherently to the reader really interrupted the creative process, to the extent of taking all of the enjoyment out of it.
Off topic, I’ve just had cataract surgery and found that I have lost my near vision. That can be corrected with glasses to some extent, but I don’t think I will be able to see well enough to do close work in future. Never say never of course, but it looks like my figure painting days are over.

Cheers all. Sorry to have hijacked the thread. It’s early days yet, and of course I will explore all of the options once my eyes have healed. At the moment I’m just coming to terms with having sacrificed my near vision.

As for WIP , I know it's not for everyone but I do find the process of writing the blog enjoyable and I enjoy the opportunity to share with like-minded people who actually understand the work that goes into these things. I have no illusions about ever attaining the painting quality of most of the members on this site, but the positive comments I have received over the years have given me the confidence to keep going.
Damn. That's bad news Peter.Agree with Banjer. Apart from WIP threads on this and other web sites I have done articles for modelling magazines, and I found I was doing more photography than painting.
