Alex Golovin, very glad that sells well!

Yes, I like painting is not interested. But in the forum, actively involved, so keep up the conversation and express their position, this is precisely what you requested, opening theme.
I can not put it clearly, but I think that it is not in the humor, pathos, or, or self-irony, or even in some mental ... matter as painting, drawing, light and color. This is annoying and, like similar to Caravaggio or Rubens, but for some reason are not happy JUST ... because it is not the same technical quality of the painting. That's it.
By the way, is far from obvious that the artists of the Renaissance would not want to write as flowery as Gauguin, Matisse, or, they simply did not have the technical capabilities. Cinnabar was from here was the abundance of red ocher were. A magenta pink, krapplaka, ultramarine, bright green and blue - was not. Yes, and a brighter red, cadmium, appeared in the late 19th century.
The downside of forced malohromnosti artist had to draw perfectly.
If you currently work in this style, then yes, you must comply with quality.

L-ana, the public lost interest in academicism in the mid-19th century, Impressionism - a response to public demand.
