The problem is how to make the Mother of God beautiful without prompting lewd thoughts. Madonnas alternately depicted as insipid or lumpen - a triumph of content over form- an image for those lacking aesthetic discernment.

I want to make a mold of my own design, the problem is how do I do it? I have tried using modeling clay to make the shape of the item so I could make a mold from the clay after I bake it. The problem is the clays form is only as good as I can make it, so it looks rather sloppy. What should I use and/or how should I be doing it to make something I can use to make a custom mold from?

I am interested in getting a really good digital slr camera, i'm willing to look at various brands and prices. My main two focuses, which i realize are two extremes, are sports (hockey) and portraits. I would also prefer one with a good optical zoom, not digital, if you have any suggestions. Thanks!

Hey Everybody, I have questions about real t.v cartooning. I've always wanted to be an author/cartoonist/screen-writter. Is that to much, or would they be fine to take together>

I'll use Avatar: the last air bender, as a good quality cartoon.
I am only saying on how people make cartoons, no voices, no sounds, nothing.

1. Do you have to draw re-draw backgrounds every time a character moves?

2. Let's say, there's a a couple trees in the background, some of the leaves on the trees move, so does that mean the background has to be re-drawn as well?

3. I once saw a bambi thingy that showed that they had bambi and they moved the character (bambi) out on the screen. How is that done, (If it is still done know).

4. How many people does it take to make a good quailty cartoon. What do you think is the lowest amount of people to make a good qaulity show?

5. Is it possible to make a good quality show by yourself, like how much time to make 30 minute eps.

Hi, I'd like to upload and print photos to Target, Walmart, Walgreens, or somewhere but I want wallets in 2.5 x 3.5, NOT 2 x 3 as this is all I can find. My daughter's professional photos come in the larger wallet size but I can't find anywhere to print the photos I take. The protography place won't print mine. Any ideas?

For example, is 13 too young to start submitting your photo's? If so, can it be done with a parent's consent?

I am doing an independent study on grisaille paintings from the renaissance and baroque eras. I am interested in the influence of this particular technique on art. Why was it used the way it was, especially since it was used to simulate sculpture, and who was the main artists who used it successfully. I am also looking for a comprehensive list of works using this technique.

You ever paint something that, after finished, you're not happy with? The work is perhaps good, but still ...? Still, you're not happy?

What if you don't like the final results but don't want to paint over it?

This painting worked on many levels. I wanted to convey a certain
turbulence, a certain emotional ebb and flow. I got this through the liquidified effects of the sky, the wall and the grass. The stone doorway came out right. The problem is the expression on her face. The problem is she looks too smug, too arrogant, too cold perhaps? I was thinking frail when I started this and ended up with just the opposite. Which is why I've never showed it to anyone before.

What do you guys think? You think she's cold or perhaps indifferent?
