I'm just glad I picked up the brush again! Whether people like my artistic approach or not is no matter, because I am on a personal quest. I remember switching majors from fine art to illustration and was called a "sellout" by fellow fine art majors. My point was to learn the techniques in art school and create my fine art for myself and no others. I also declared not to take my art seriously until I had some life experience under my belt. Now, years later, I create art at work to earn a living and my "fine art" is all mine and not influenced by "the market" or trends in taste. And, of course, my favorite subject is tiki! If someone likes a piece then great! If they don't, great too!
