I scrolled back about 8 pages searching in this forum for the same topic and couldnt find any, so I gave up. Sorry. |

Huge art fan here.
I love Remedios Varo, Dali, Monet and Gaudi right off the top of my mind. LOVED my time in Barcelona w/ Gaudi's architectural works. The Familia Sagrada, well- breathtaking! He lived onsite in a tent for decades. Stepped off the sidewalk, drunk one night, and ate a bus. The end. Sagrada never completed, but so amazing still. As is the model that depicts what it would have been, had he finished. I've always done surrealism. Appreciate it, and a GREAT water colour, the most. I abhor painting in oil and acrylic. India ink sketches and water colours, that's the end of the street you'll find my work. Love sculpture too. |

Hi Dancere!
Sounds like good times. I've been to the Dali museum here in St. Petersburg about 4 times now. Amazing place. I also went to the one in Paris, and stumbled into a traveling Dali exhibit while in Bruges. One of my most memorable museum experiences has to be The Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam. Absolutely breath taking to stand two feet away from the original paintings, and see the textured brush strokes. |

EVERY medium....ink... pencil...charcoal... acrylic, oil, water colour, play dough, clay, felt, wood, metal....fabric, papier mache... and on and on and on... I am playing with the concept of completely recycled product, with zero carbon miles, organic materials, and cast off fabrics... some amazing creations arriving from seashells driftwood, palm sticks, palm fronds, local vine, and feathers. |

They do it because they are passionate about it, and don't care about the money. Some of the best work I've seen has been from broke and hungry artists. |

Absolutely breath taking to stand two feet away from the original paintings, and see the textured brush strokes. Hey Freek We have so much in common! Well, except for that lil horror film penchant ya got goin' there. Ya frikkin' freek... I too visited the Van Gogh museum in Amsterdam, many times. Ah, now that is art! So often, standing inches from any of the great works, I just get absolutely overcome w/ the beauty of the painting - to the point of grabbing for my heart and shedding tears. It is hard to even breathe well. I'm such an art heart! We must go to Barcelona! Gaudi did an entire park there, Parc De Gueill(sp?), I believe it was called. Just picnic and play there all day. Like the Hopis, he felt corners and straight lines were not of nature. The town is packed w/, now, historic bldgs. that he designed, so colourful, unique and surreal! Did you ever hear that French centenarian lady's description of Van Gogh? Her father owned the pub he most frequented. She said he was rude, crude, mean, and stank like nothing she'd ever had the displeasure of smelling. Great art, flawed and troubled individual. What artist(human!) isn't, I ask??? |

i have always noticed that the value of art goes up when the artist dies or is dead.i'm rerfering to paintings and sculptures or anything resembling the two.
