Unknown,

Every artist is never satisfied and is oftentimes, his or her own worst critic.  Subject matter is the theme that (in my opinion, at least), places the Pre-Raphaelites above most other artists. 

Consider it - there have been many talented painters throughout the years, and, of course, those in the Renaissance were equally talented, for the most part.  And yet, they were limited by religious constraints, in other words, not allowed to paint the pagans, even if they wanted to. 

You have the tools. Perhaps it would be better to develop an over-riding theme to your art. Images for the characters in your stories, perhaps, or from stories the classical past.

Cheers,

Dawn
