Ah, to be young and feisty again.

Attention posters: This thread is titled "The Midwests Best" not, "Young kids just learning how to paint, self-promoting". There's threads for ALL skilll levels, but clearly there's things being posted recently that DO NOT fit the theme of this thread. Think before you post in here.

Wings, Teeth, Beliefs and Grief (I can't save everyone)

Clemenzia, I see a lot of potential in both, but the top one speaks to me more as a whole. I like the left side a lot on the bottom one.

Bump the new kids coming up. Fuck the negativity. That's the real toy shit.

I agree with Vulcan. Keep developing it on a smaller scale.

Nice Decyferon! Especially for a first attempt!

See, to me...the last one looks like it just "happened on its own". (No diss to you) A lot of abstract hits me like that. Like some color gets spilled out and people let it dry and call it a day. I need some brushstrokes and lines ...or at least some interesting composition, like the ones I complimented above.

Liking the last two.

Yeah, I wouldn't mind seeing the rest either.

Commission wall by Lost

Actually, Anoy wrote Helper for awhile ...so phbbbbbbt!!!

Good stuff Stagnant! First one is my fave too. I'd like to see that on a wall REAL big.

Enough to live a decent life. I'm not ballin, but I'm not fallin.

Rila and Juse are my 2009 heroes.

Using his best announcer voice: "OH! And it looks like he went for the 2 posts down, still on this page, full pic BUMP! Amazing! He even threw in a hiphop-esque "aight" for style! The crowd is loving both him...and the HOER piece!"

Ragweed Requiem Big Business

Akron, Ohio smells funny. Good old tire factory funk.

No wonder you hate Ohio Injury. Nobody likes Youngstown. That area is NOT a good representation of the rest of the state. If I could sell Youngstown to Pennsylvania, I would.

P.S. If you don't like it here...please leave. It's that "Ohio sucks" mentality that holds it down. If all the people here that hated it, shipped out, us that love it here can keep it moving along. Cleveland's got a BOOMING art scene and is hella' graffiti tolerant. Columbus is one giant party city. Cincinnati...I don't know too much about, but they had a t.v. show about them in the 70's so they rule too.

I'm born and raised here and I love it here. It's dirty and rusty and easy to get over on. Just the way I like it.

Ohio is the heart of it all!
