This morning, my wife and I went to go see the movie “Pan’s Labyrinth”.
To say it was frightening is one thing, but to say that it was sheer inhumane might be closer to the mark. Granted, it was a war-time era. Bad things did happen. Good people died, and people were […]
Okay, this is what I get for playing with marbleizing techniques with latex enamels. A long dry time. Checked it this evening… still wet. Oh, I am referring to the new painting I did the other day. You know, I am going to forget one of my paintings drying someday. I’ll just leave it somewhere […]
I am usually a very patient person. But not right now. I finished a new painting this evening and it will probably take till tomorrow evening to dry completely.

Tammy Powley over at Jewelry & Beading is gracious enough to host our showcase this month entitled “All Things New” where each of our b5 art and craft bloggers explore that theme.

Natalie recently submitted her work entitled “Mohrr Gazelles-Sahar Oasis”
I think what initially captures my eye in this is the detail of the landscape surrounding the gazelles. It’s not glamorized as a tropical paradise or anything. It comes across very real and authenticly wild. I think that is an element that is hard […]
Digital painting of photographs has really taken a leap in the last few years thanks to artists like Scott Engel.
Scott says this about this particular piece. “Fly By Night”
I was out photographing in Simmons Woods Park, in Pewaukee, Wisconsin around Halloween last year, when I was inspired by the near-dusk flight of some geese. Having […]

I’ve been thinking about buying some welding equipment here lately and trying to do some larger welded metal art pieces. So right now I am looking at metal sculpture artists. Do you by chance know of any good Artists that fit the bill? Or tips on welding in art?
I don’t want to […]
