Let's start an ART thread!

Correct. I have to skip page 14.

How sweet of you. That's awesome. I'll check it out now.

Edit: Just watched the street laser show....loved it! Would really enjoy doing something like that myself. Wow!

No problem =)

Yeah the one where the movements of his body dictates which elements of the songs are triggered... I wonder if they could make a video game like that for the Xbox Kinect.

I would think they could and that it would be a best seller. I'd love to do that. (Gave you green for the playlist.)

So, I don't have any photos but a house I had a few years ago, was a lot of fun what I did to it.

The kitchen was decorated with nostalgia...old stuff like crochet things, old kitchen towels, old postcards, old spice tins and even some older appliances.

Back room....meditation room, very zen.

Dining roon.....spanish style, I even had a big, old wooden table. I had plans to make a stuffed human (or paper mache) with a sombero on his head, sitting slouched in a chair, like taking a nap.

Living room was French provencial.

Guest bedroom was futuristic...mechanical looking.

My bedroom...zen.

Bathroom....decorated and painted with fantasy sea creatures.

Then, the city shut off the gas, in the middle of winter, because of a leak they found and it was going to be weeks before it would be on again. So, no heat and no hot water. I had to move. ;o(

I love all her videos.

Have loved Norman Rockwell since I was a little kid. Have the best day everyone!

Vihart is fun.

I've developed into an art collector, after decades of being either an artist or curator, and have become enamoured with 17th -18th century tiles. They encompass painting, sculpture and texture to delight my senses.

How about a link?


Here's a photo of the Bolivian salt desert after a rain.

LOL!

I love Rockwell too. I've done some sketches that are reminiscent of his work.

Brings me back. One of the 4 D&D artists that originally worked for the dice and paper game back in the day, and my personal favorite of the 4, Larry Elmore. His females were fantastic.

The other 3 were

Clyde Caldwell

Tried to find one for you, but mine are much older than the ones online. I'll have to set up a couple of photos later.

All apologies.

"We are all in the Gutter. But some of us are looking up at the Stars."

Awesome I am s glad someone else liked it. I found this a couple of months ago and no one I know would have geeked out like I did with it.

Are these yours? They are very interesting. First work, worker bees. Second one, the bottom of the painting really caught my interest, heh!

Oh, would love to see photos of them. So you have quite a collection? (and thanks for trying to find a link)

Kewl! I posted the beginning is near one just the other day...somewhere, LOL! Love the change for a paradigm, lol! Thanks for making similie's, Sonic!!!

You're fast at this, eh?

It is the work of a friend. These are oil paintings. The first piece I believe is titled "The Hive".

The little girl painting is very large and in the painting there is some much that can't be seen in the photo.

I'll post more paintings later when I return from running errands.

Is it by choice that you don't have an avatar or is there something that you would've liked but don't know how to crop from an image, maybe I could try.

I enlarged both but didn't catch anything. What's the title of the second?

Awwww, you're so sweet.

I used 4D glasses as an avatar until a couple of days ago. I just wanted to go without for a while....maybe until I feel inspired. I'll make it into a smilie so you can see it, lol!

I am not sure what the title of the little girl painting is. I have seen this piece in person and even then I missed some things until about the third time. The most significant thing is the pods on the ground. In them are little children experiencing war, child abuse, hunger and such. Some are falling off the edge of the earth.

Here are some more. There are quite a few paintings by this artist I just have to find more images. I'll keep looking if you want to see more.

Holy cow, this is the exact reason I got back on this thread.

The holographic nature of our universe is so amazing. I'm sitting here thinking "Hmm how do I go about customizing my avatar, I bet Sonic could tell me." Low and behold, it appears the question is already in the process of being answered.

How do I do it Sonic?

Ok, well if it's a whole picture that you want, just resize it and make sure none of the sides is bigger than 150 pixels. If it's only a part of a picture that you want, in IrfanView, just draw a rectangle around that part with your mouse and select "Crop selection" in the "Edit" menu. Resize that to 150 or less.

I did that with a jpeg image and it's 57.6k, but it errors out saying it's an incorrecty file

Thank you for the kind offer. I have a feeling seeing these in person is better than on the internet so don't go to the trouble. I've enlarged all of them and can't see much more.

The second link was interesting though. I enjoyed those clouds.
