Great work on that Grapes. You are so right about how tricky it is when the lights changing all day. You have to pick a direction of the light and stick to it. I like the idea of a faint forth windmill. So many wonderful places to see in the world! I love seeing descriptions and pictures of...

Awwww, they’re gonna love it. What a beautiful portrait.

What sounds like an awesome day out TK. Those are very unique tapestries!

😂 Ain’t that the truth!

Here is a link for a quick search for blending coloured pencil. I’m not sure if all methods are good for the paper or the materials for longevity, but it is interesting seeing the list. Also, there’s some videos underneath it too. That might be worthwhile to check out...

Jade, great work! You are learning fast.🙂 Holy moly, you are zooming along. Yes, it’s nice to get the blended effects of pencil with solvent, but like you, I cannot handle that stuff either. I think there’s another way, but I have to look into it.

Strong pieces Enyaw! Great work with colour and light and there’s clarity and energy/ life in these pieces, in your brushstrokes that I really like.👍🏻🙂

I bet. I agree with you. How fascinating to speak with that gentleman! Have you ever watched the movie Monuments Men? True story. I really enjoyed it. From the movie trailer overview: During World War II, the Nazis steal countless pieces of art and hide them away. Some over-the-hill art...

They found it and other works too! The family members who had it are under house arrest and are going to be up in front of the court under charges. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/sep/04/nazi-looted-old-master-painting-giuseppe-ghislandi-recovered-argentina-property-listing-ntwnfb

This channel on YouTube is called Joshua Charow. He is a documentary filmmaker and photographer. His videos which are regular or in short clips feature lifelong artists in their homes/studios in New York City. A scene that has almost disappeared. How they lived and how they created with an...

Oh, those are lovely! Regarding Jef Bourgeau, I definitely think it he is mixed media. I just don’t know why he doesn’t say so when he’s advertising his work and prints.

I haven’t seen those abstracts. That’s quite a description. Lol I’ll post a picture of where that link goes here so people see it. I prefer his other work. So he definitely sounds like an artist that explores different ways of making art. Which is fine. This is what his description is. And I...

Which ones. They were photos on the Instagram page of the first artist I featured. He would promote other artists he was showing with at certain galleries at the time.

Lovely Brian.

I do have a wide ranging taste or at least appreciation for different styles of art. I may not put it all up in my house, however! Lol I really wanted to add art here that wasn’t just the more traditional work that people tend to like. Especially for the members here who produce and enjoy...
