Apparently the only way to get myself to finish a piece of art is to not give myself time to think about it.  With that in mind, I submit my 20 minute Paint speedart of my fursona.  I know there are so many things i could have done better, but I finished it.

That's pretty cool!  I never get what the heck "speed paint" means because it seems all artists who paint really intricate detailed things that take forever and post them call them "speed paintings".  But at 20 minutes I think you're using the definition properly. [;) *should try it sometime*

I think "speedpainting" is more defined by the artist themselves. For example: an artists that generally takes a long time on artwork might call something that only takes an hour or two a speedpainting. To them, it's fast.
