Thanks everone, I'll try to find the files tomorrow, I know he was workng on them but in his opinion they're not quite done...his own worst critic.
He's been working 60+ hours the last couple months and taking photography classes. - At least he's happy with his photos!
Kris, that is weird, usually oil is opaque so you can fix mistakes and changes - except black..black does funny things through a camera lens.
oh yeah, and tell him for me that just because he's so incredibly talented doesn't give him the right to be an art snob. 
LOL! I call him a snob all the time. He's not really...but I still tease him.
Balancing 'wacky women' may not entice him since 80% of his crew and his entire management team are women - and they are 'wacky'!
