"Jonah and the Whale: Rebirth Motif" by John Flannagan at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts.
A copper printing block that I found today, it looks like it has got damp at some point and someone has cleaned it up. Hard to hand burnish as it is 2cm x 10cm, and I tend to either smudge it on thick or tear the thinner paper. Oh for a small hand printing press!
Ganhei os fimos de presente de Natal, eles não são caros e duram muito, são ótimos pra fazer nail art e ficam liiiiindos, adooorei *-*
I have had so little time for doing any art or crafts these last few months. I am going crazy. I see other people's beautiful drawings or paintings they've done and I want to do that. I am always rushed or have no time at all. This piece I did today in about 15 minutes at lunch. I want to try more patterns rather than the ones I know in my head. It takes time to look them up online or in my books. I don't like this one. The paper isn't good quality so the pens bleed a bit. It isn't good, but I wanted to do something. I also want to do colors. So I scribbled out some colored pencil colors too today at lunch.
While out riding my bike I stumbled upon this street & alley with some pretty come street art.

This is my favorite lily from my backyard - I love to sit outside and sketch with the dogs. They are bright white and about as big as my head. They make me happy every year when they bloom.

Denver, Colorado -- Urban Street Art has transformed this abandoned business into an eclectic art gallery. Everything now wears a mark the building, sign, sign post, abandoned tire, and even the curb.

Matisse painted this oil sketch in the summer of 1904, while working alongside fellow artist Paul Signac on the French Riviera, and he completed the final painting (now at the Musée d'Orsay, Paris) the following winter. Both Signac and Matisse were influenced by the elder painter Paul Cézanne, whose discrete strokes of colour emphasised the materiality of the painted surface over naturalistic illusion. But Matisse went further, using a palette of pure, high-pitched colours (blue, green, yellow, and orange) to render the landscape, and outlining the figures in blue. The painting takes its title from a line by the nineteenth-century poet Charles Baudelaire and shares the poems subject of an escape to an imaginary, tranquil refuge.

Project Flickr Week12 - Graffiti
We had to go downtown near the Art center today. I found some graffiti on the side of the building we were entering. Unfortunately there was a car parked next to the building covering the lettering so I just snapped the first part. I noticed the letters ‘ATF’ in several of the shots I took in different parts of town. Also heavy use of shades of blue paint. Must be some connection.
