What are some good websites where artists post pix of their work and give each other feedback?

I have realllllly slow dialup, so it takes forever to do my own research just clicking around. Anway, I’m learning to oilpaint, and I live in an isolated rural area, and there are no painting classes or groups anywhere. So I am wondering if there are some good online artists groups, where people can give each other feedback and encouragement and help solve problems? Thanks!!! Has to be something that will work with dialup, so nothing where people post super high resolution.

Wetcanvas is a free international site of about 165,000 registered artists. You can join with just an email address (no spam). The site has forums for all kinds of art. The oil painting forum is very friendly, and full of both beginners and professionals. They discuss all kinds of painting problems, play games about oil painting, and post their works for help or comment. A good place to make friends. I can get Wetcanvas on my old dialup connection.

You can also post your artworks for free on places like Flickr at www.flickr.com. If you join art groups on that site and post your pieces in the groups, people will comment and help you with suggestions. Many artists put paintings in progress (unfinished), so others can see how they work.

Good luck with your creating!
