Found an interesting nugget of information from none other than CD (inactive) member, Alex Negrea!
"And since I want more vibrant colors I go even more saturated with colors. I do not color pick from my painting either except when I am closer to the end and I want to loose a bit the saturation. Colorpicking its great if you want to remove the vibrancy:)"
Makes me want to rethink my process. I do a whole lot of color picking, maybe it's time to minimize that habit.. No wonder the paintings I do tend to be muddy the more I noodle around..

Had an interesting chat with dodeqaa about light few days back.. That conversation made me realize I don't know how to paint night scenes, among other things.. Have to give props to that guy for the push.
Portrait study:
Needs more work, but I'd rather go to another piece and start all over. Learned a lot of things with the study.

If you are reading this, I most likely just gave you a crappy crit! What I'm basically trying to say is, don't give up!
