Victorian Paintings & a Tea Party
The Victorian Series
I paint in series, anything from realism to impressionism. I painted a series of artwork that I titled "The Victorian Series".

This lens will also offer details for providing a tea party with wonderful treats as well as a poem I wrote.. I am also a poet and sculptor. . The IMAGE is of my painting...

Graphic Art Designs
WhiteOak Art Designs
My husband introduced me to graphic art a few years ago. At first in my mind, there was no way this could be real art. But I soon found out different!! When you are working with graphic art programs such as Bryce, you are working with a blank screen and add things to it. While you are creating the picture the screen in front of you is all wire framed. As you add an object, you create the color, texture, shape and size. For example, my Triple Moon symbol. I start with five spheres and change...

Sister Wendy Taught Me All I Know About Art
Who's Sister Wendy?
Sister Wendy is the lovable nun and art critic, who became one of the most unlikely celebrities of the 1990s. Her instructional programs on BBC featured her critiques of famous paintings.

FINE art or FOLK art?
Is fine art overrated?
FINE art or FOLK art? Fine art and folk art are so hard to define, that even wikipedia gives up on it. Still, fine art is for rich people, upper class, educated. It's sponsored by a few people in high places, including the government. It's supposed to be different, make you think, keep you challenged.
