I just received this art submission from J. Reinartz along with this note:
Hello, A while ago I was really into digital art. I’m painting in oil pastels at the moment. I did a series of abstracts in addition to some digital art portraits I find the ability to layer images the […]

September Showcase - Arts and Design

Many Artists usually battle any kind of organizing types of responsibilities.  I know I am like this.  Piles of papers can at times line the edges of my desk and a more than elaborate network of chores and todos can be posted in non-linear fashion within my mind at any one time.  However, I have […]

If you had to try a new art form and had unlimited resources to do it, what would you try?

Here’s what I would try (to do more of anyway).
Sculpting.
Sculpting is messy work. 
There is a reason I shy away from sculpting.  It’s expensive, it’s really time consuming, it takes up a lot of space and well…. it’s messy.
Not that I wouldn’t do more if I had the resources, I think I would.  Or at […]

JD Hillberry: Monochromatic Renderings

J.D. Hillberry submitted some of his renderings to me last week. These are pretty impressive to say the least, but to get a fuller picture of the scope of his work, check out www.jdhillberry.com
J.D. also has quite a few tutorials on his site on How to Draw that I’d highly recommend.
Artist’s Statement:

Artist Submission - Kids count too.

Dexie, a fellow blogger over at www.sheknowsbest.com - Lifestyle Tips for Guys, who featured me last week (as per my wife’s submission) wrote in and was curious if her 9 year old son qualified as an artist?
Sure, one thing I love about children’s artwork is I love to see the progression of artwork from […]

My wife’s art. I

Over the last month, we’ve began a process to go minimalist with our lives and clear out the extra crap from our little existence. Recently we got a storage facility and began carting everything off to there. Yesterday as we were packing up some stuff for this exercise, we ran across some of […]

Featured Artist: Masters Glass Art

One media and form of art that continually amazes me, particularly because of it’s constant and enduring state is glass.
Glass is one of those medias that I’ve never been able to try myself, but I believe is one of the most subtle and enchanting forms of art. It can take the form […]

Take part in the “Artist Hideout Challenge”

I recently hit on the idea to make a digital artwork that was the same width and posting requirements for my blog. One that was rendered specifically for the space but you had to scroll to get the full image. I hadn’t seen anything like this anywhere else. With that in mind, I am opening […]

Are you linking to me (or would like me to link to you)?

Sometimes I know I can get carried away with just writing and get caught up in the art that I can forget some of the cardinal rules of blogging. Namely that of linking.
I also enjoy reading readers blogs. Hey, build the community right? So if you have an art site or […]
