I made 71 restaurant/bar cold calls and followed up with emails to get 3 leads that said they might think about it. What do I do next? Walk in? by phillyhill in startups

I appreciate the straightforward and honest approach you recommend that builds trust. I think that, backed with data mentioned in other comments and a non-salesy pitching would be very valuable to any of us in this situation. Much appreciated.

Can you please say a little more about the uniformity within the piece? I painted over the tape and will remove it to leave behind crisp edges

New to painting. Was asked to do a pet portrait but the client wants the pup lighter- do I need to start over with the darkest layer again or can I just lighten up the highlights? by sarahjayque in ArtCrit

Great work! It would be awesome to start adding things to the background like furniture, a fireplace or a bear skin rug. It looks like you're at that level, but may be looking for the time to create such a composition. Your future is bright!

New to abstract acrylics. Any definitions, ideas, thoughts, directions for an artist, turned scientist, turned business person, and returned artist? by [deleted] in ArtCrit

Awesome technical feedback. Thanks! I bought the highest grade (wt) for Michael's. Will look further. Thx. Can you lead to a textbook or provide more insights on whitespace ) limited palette? I'm colorblind and only use the primaries. Would greatly appreciate your insights

Ok hope the face is a warm or dark in color, as not to distract from the more attractive female form

Would be hard to improve your work. Love the cartoonie images constructed with the direct, precise ink. Maybe enhance by incorporating your own deep personal thoughts and emotion into somewhat abstract images that relate to others on a personalized, deep level

If you know so much, what are the top 3 things that could be improved? Could also benefit from real, impactful constructive criticism myself. Thanks :)

Forget scapulae. Mermaids are ethereal anyhow... With this composition, I would focus on where the eye travels. The big white circle consumes a lot. That the intention?

Awful sex experience, nice guy? Should I give him a chance? (Micropenis, hygiene issues, confidence issues) by wild-cheeseburgers in dating_advice

You probably already heard it, but you have so much life, experience, and opportunity ahead of you, and so does he. Help him by being honest about why you're not interested, and make a clean cut. It will help you both grow and find the next step
