Potty Training

izzybellmom @izzybellmom (8) • United States 4 Oct 07

I am looking for a little help on the best way to potty train a 2 year old. She just seems to have no interest in learing. Is there a magic trick that I am missing?

Why am I good only at drawing women.

ketybhagat @ketybhagat (4123) • India 4 Oct 07

I have never learnt drawing. It is an inborn gift. However I find that my best drawings are that of women. They come out really pretty and it pleases me. Whenever I try to draw a man or a child, the effect is not so much. It is my...

annasellers If a person is a woman and draws women better, it could be as simple as being more familiar with the female attributes that make a drawing seem "female". If they are male, they probably make good mental notes of what makes women attractive. If you look at...

Do you prefer long term projects or quick results?

annasellers @annasellers (12) 2 Oct 07

I generally like long processes. When I paint, I like doing layers over a grisaille. When I draw, I usually pick something fairly detailed and time consuming. I can't explain it, but when I finish something that takes a small...

annasellers I didn't think of this in terms of writing, but I bet it is just as hard to stop. In terms of self satisfaction, which is your most satisfying?

annasellers Quite honestly, I will paint anything that will be still for an hour or so. My favorite method of painting is more of a traditional underpainting with layers. I am very fond of classical art methods. At the same time, I like fantastical and humorous themes....

Are you sincere about someone else's drawings?

kabukii @kabukii (88) • Brazil 12 Jul 07

When someone asks what you think about his drawings and it's relly bad, what do you say? You just say it's fine? Or you say that the person need to improve and give him some tips? I think it's really bad when people lie about...

annasellers I usually try to "read" the person asking. That is very hard to do online. I would hate to discourage someone from continuing to try. If they seem to be able to take criticism well, I give an honest opinion. If they seem easily bruised, I usually just point...

New series, Journeyman

desertdarlene @desertdarlene (8910) • United States 25 Sep 07

I liked this show, but I think it has a lot of work to be done on it to make it better. I'm glad, though, that they made the struggle of convincing everyone as to what was happening with him more realistic than most other shows of...
