Okay, trying to make this load certain jpg files based on a variable, but I can’t make it loop through?

[AS]  
artistName = “Grace Jones”;

for(i=1; i\<4; i++){  
filename = artistName+"/"+i+".jpg";  
trace(filename);  
loadMovie(""+artistName+"/2.jpg", _root.images); //this works  
loadMovie(""+filename+"", images.holder_+i); //this does not  
trace(artistName+"/2.jpg");  
}  
[/AS]

any ideas?
