The Art of Soap Carving
Amazing art work carved from soap
Hand carved soap flowers originated in the village of Chian Rai, in Northern Thailand. The villagers started carving soaps as a hobby while they were off from working on their farms. Those carved soap flowers were then sold at the night bazaar along with various other handcrafted souvenirs.

My Squidoo Gallery: An overview of my paintings & art lenses
An overview of my art lenses, artistic progress and the contents of my galleries
This lens attempts to pull together my various art lenses, by giving you a thumbnail overview of the contents of each art-based lens (dragons, mermaids, cats, and whatever else I make in future...). I've also added a few other bits and pieces, that I hope will be of interest. Ideally, you'll be able to easily find a painting that interests you and jump back and forth to the other lenses, or simply enjoy browsing this lens. My digital artworks are painted in ArtRage and my traditional drawing...

Art With Heart
These Artists Put the Art in HeArt
Since I began writing Squidoo lenses and making my artwork available on line at Zazzle.com/sherryholderhunt* and at My Imagekind Galleries I have met some of the most generous people. Many are here on Squidoo and I have met others on Zazzle and Imagekind. They have large goals, Big Hearts, and they raise money to help others in need. Some of these wonderful people help other people that have special needs and some draw attention to certain animals that desperately need our help. They pour the...

Sam, The Dot Man
Inspiring Self-Taught Painter of Dots
Sam "The Dot Man" McMillan, from Winston-Salem, NC, started painting when he was 60 years old. Call his work folk art, outsider art, self-taught art, or vernacular art — I call it inspiring. You have probably heard Thomas Kinkade being referred to as The Painter of Light. Sam McMillan, to me, is The Painter of Love. His artwork evokes memories of innocent childhood and gives me a peaceful, joyful feeling when I view it. This is my homage to Sam, The Dot Man. Enjoy!

Scrap-Paper Sketches
My Pencil Drawings and Doodles: Concepts and Distractions
In lectures, when I'm trying to keep my eyes open and need something to focus on, I reach for my pencil and scrap paper. When doing assignments and needing a moment to process, I doodle in the margins. When I'm trapped at a train station with nothing to do, I scribble on my readings for next week. When it's late and I don't want to go to bed just yet I pull out my sketchbook. When an idea strikes me and I can't go paint it, I draw it as a visual note. When I'm reading a graphic novel, or read...
