BB9 Houseguest: Natalie Cunial

What I've seen of her artwork is atrocious, actually. I was all ready to root for her as a fellow artist until I saw her mermaid. Her work is very clumsy and amateurish -- showing all of the possible pitfalls someone who thinks he/she is "painting" can fall into. Here is what good artwork looks like:

She simply has unbounded self-esteem (on the outside; if it were real, she wouldn't dog men's steps and constantly be shouting out some version of "look at me!" in an effort to win approval).
I will say "Good for her," in relation to her taking some art classes in an effort to learn. She has a long way to go -- and if she keeps up with classes, she might actually get somewhere, as she has the drive and she does have a vision; it will take a lot of study, effort, and refinement, and she might turn into at least an acceptable painter. I will also take a look at her work (even if I have to register for her newsletters to do so; I used an alternate email and name, and even then I wasn't sure I wanted any contact whatsoever), though from what I've seen, I pretty much know what to expect.
My feeling in general is that she is an embarrassment to everything she claims to be a part of -- right now, Art and Christianity, though her claims expand serendipitously.
Last night I read a few bios for the first time and found out that Adam has studied art -- Fashion Design and Marketing -- at both Parsons (THE design school) and overseas in Italy. He didn't just study it, he has a Master's Degree. He must be ROTFLOL inside at Natalie's claims to being a qualified artist who "went to college."
His artwork is something I would want to see!
Haven't posted here before: I have been posting on the general ongoing commentary board.

re: the Monocromatic Anna Nicole picture: I'd give it a C in a college-level design class, maybe a D, if she had had instruction from me. She doesn't have the most basic step of mixing tints and shades down. The worst thing that can be done with red-violet is adding straight white (or black or grey) to it; it is the basic example of how not to lighten a color to a tint without a mediating addition (trade secrets). Red Violet plus white = Pepto Bismol Pink, the prime example almost everyone uses in teaching color theory (and practice). The picture is almost there -- it's just missing the basics. An o.k. start, though, I'll give it that. If she can manage to learn from the classes she takes, she might make progress.

:lol3: :lol3: For being a contestant on BB she is pretty good. They really don't pick the most talented people for their cast! :lol3:

Well I get an F in stick figures so of course I know nothing about these things - though im not a fan of mermaids. They actually freak me out, kinda :lol3:

Wow... you ladies had me really curious. I went to the link to see Natalie's artwork... then I realized I had to basically become a fan in order to continue on to see her stuff... & I didn't want to lead her on... so I opted out of that option !! No fan of Natalie here!!
