Some dolls may have slight imperfections in the wood, but aren't we all a little less than perfect! Each doll arrives on my worktable as a blank slate. After I draw on the face, paint the hair and body, then I glue the head to the body then wait a day for the paint and glue to dry.

So much material, so much time. This is time well spent, just crafting, making art, having fun, just me, myself, and I. Here it is where I can step away from the world and just relax.
William Hogarth, born in London, England, 1697; active in England; died in London, England, 1764
The Montagu Family and an Unknown Attendant
between 1730 and 1735
William Hogarth helped popularize the small-scale conversation piece in the early 1730s, taking the conventions of full-scale aristocratic group portraiture and making them suitable to patrons from the gentry and middling ranks. The identity of this family has been lost but their home is filled with expensive goods and furnishings such as Chinese porcelain, much of it imported to England through expanding trade networks in Asia and Africa, or made from imported raw materials. The canvas has been cropped slightly on the left, leaving a pair of disembodied hands holding a tea tray. In its original state, the figure serving tea probably represented a young African servant, another sign of this family’s pretensions to refinement and status.
At the far left of this family portrait a small figure with brown hands and dressed in green and red livery holds out a silver tray, on which rests an overturned teacup. Several features of the painting—including its unusual dimensions, compressed composition, and the condition of the canvas—suggest that it was cut down sometime after Hogarth completed it. In its original state, the figure at left was almost certainly wholly visible and probably represented a young African servant.
"Portrait of a Family" is characteristic of Hogarth’s innovative approach to the conversation piece. Rather than arrange his sitters in formal, static poses, Hogarth frequently showed them engaged in an action or event—in this case, the disruption caused by the kitten’s toppling of the yarn basket from the tapestry table. The scene is set within an opulent sitting room filled with expensive goods and furnishings, many of them imported to England through its expanding Asian and Atlantic trade networks or made from imported raw materials, including a silver chandelier and porcelain tea service, and a Chinese vase and lacquer ware cabinet. The now partially cropped servant provides yet another sign of the family’s worldly wealth.
The subject of this vivacious conversation piece is not known, although judging from the elegance of the clothes and the refinement of the drawing-room interior, with its carved marble fireplace and expensive furniture, the group was well connected. The lady at the tea table, the hostess, gently extracts a fine gauze handkerchief from the pocket of the gentleman to her right, while the gentleman on her left lifts the teacup from her saucer. This is intriguing enough, but the affectionate dog that sits in the lap of the gentleman to the far right is obviously pregnant and, in the foreground, a cat pounces on a ball of wool that has rolled out of an overturned workbasket. At the extreme left, the hands of an otherwise invisible black servant offer to the gentleman who converses with the lady at the worktable an overturned teacup on a small silver tray. The meaning of Hogarth's tea party has been lost-and may never have been known by more than the artist, his patron, and a few insiders. It seems doubtful that all the figures here belong to a single family.

Installation of the Long Gallery is now complete! In this space—beloved to many of our visitors—you can wander around all seven of the twenty-foot-square bays and encounter 200 paintings and five sculptures, primarily from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
Originally called the Study Gallery, this space on the south side of the fourth floor was designed to allow students and scholars to engage with artworks that otherwise would have been in storage. It was renamed the Long Gallery in 1998 and is now accessible to all. The works are densely hung, with each wall dedicated to a specific theme.
“The Long Gallery is a special place to encounter art,” says Edward Town, Assistant Curator of Paintings and Sculpture. “In the new hang, we have added partition walls along the south side of the gallery, giving us considerably more space to showcase areas of depth in the collection. This means we can share more themes, create new connections, and increase the potential for teaching and learning in this remarkable space.”

Opened in 1977 through the generosity of Yale graduate and philanthropist Paul Mellon, the Yale Center for British Art holds the largest and most significant collection of British art outside the United Kingdom. The collection spans five centuries and is the foundation for a museum uniquely focused on the histories, legacies, and shifting contexts of British art. Housed in a celebrated modernist building designed by Louis I. Kahn, the museum is situated on the Yale University campus in the city of New Haven. It is free and open to all.
"On the campus of Yale University, two art museums housed in landmark modernist buildings — each designed by Louis I. Kahn — sit directly across the street from one another. One, the Yale University Art Gallery, with an encyclopedic collection of about 300,000 objects, draws close to a quarter million people annually. The other, the Yale Center for British Art, with its specialized collection of more than 100,000 works from the 15th century to the present, brings in less than half that traffic.
The British center is now aiming to even up those visitor numbers.
It reopened in March after a two-year closure for conservation of the skylights and lighting throughout the building — the acclaimed architect’s last realized project, which opened in 1977 and is widely considered an artwork in itself — and with a fresh exhibition philosophy.
A piece by Tracey Emin, who came to fame as one of the so-called Young British Artists in the 1990s alongside peers like Damien Hirst and Sarah Lucas, inaugurates a new program of contemporary works in the lobby. Her glowing sculptural installation, with yellow neon lighting proclaiming in script “I loved you until the morning” on a mirrored wall in the museum’s entrance court, is visible from the street. It serves as an “invitation” at the front door, said Martina Droth, the center’s director, who was appointed in January after working with its collections for 16 years, most recently as chief curator."
www.nytimes.com/2025/04/25/arts/design/yale-british-art-t...
The museum’s collections include more than 2,000 paintings, 250 sculptures, 20,000 drawings and watercolors, 40,000 prints, and 35,000 rare books and manuscripts dating from the fifteenth century to the present. More than 40,000 volumes supporting research in British art and related fields are available in the Reference Library. The collection is rich with historic works by John Constable, Thomas Gainsborough, Joshua Reynolds, George Stubbs, and J. M. W. Turner, as well as works by major artists of the twentieth- and twenty-first centuries, including Hurvin Anderson, Francis Bacon, Vanessa Bell, Sonia Boyce, Cecily Brown, Barbara Hepworth, Anish Kapoor, Henry Moore, Ben Nicholson, Yinka Shonibare, and Barbara Walker.

One of the museum's greatest treasures is the building itself. Opened to the public in 1977, the Yale Center for British Art is the last building designed by the internationally acclaimed American architect Louis I. Kahn. The structure integrates the dual functions of study center and gallery, while providing an environment for works of art that is appropriately elegant and dignified. The building stands across the street from Kahn’s first major commission, the Yale University Art Gallery (1953). Located in downtown New Haven, the YCBA is near many of the city’s best restaurants, theaters, and shops.
The YCBA’s exterior of matte steel and reflective glass confers a monumental presence in downtown New Haven. The geometrical four-floor interior is designed around two interior courtyards and is comprised of a restrained palette of natural materials including travertine marble, white oak, concrete, and Belgian linen. Kahn succeeded in creating intimate galleries where one can view objects in diffused natural light. He wanted to allow in as much daylight as possible, with artificial illumination used only on dark days or in the evening. The building’s design, materials, and skylit rooms combine to provide an environment for the works of art that is simple and dignified.

Add a description…sketches and family photos on the worktable of Denman Island painter Katarina Meglic. Katarina is currently working with themes of family and nurturing.
The reason behind my abject failure at Howl's jacket...suddenly becomes clear.
(The Dalek belongs to my daughter, he is just visiting Mom's Worktable to have his plunger reattached.)
this little fairy started with a dragon fly that sat on my worktable for a year ...with a saddle on it.
