Wonderful, colorful, little work by a painter that I like. I am use to his wild stuff so this was a nice diversion.
Wassily Kandinsky House in Murnau, 1908 |
I love the despair of this little Greek statue. We know that being a woman is hard! Even back then...honey I have a headache!

I almost didn't post this one because it was so blurry. But I kind of like the movement and shimmer. This is a block print by Drurer.

Exquisite.
Figure of a young man from a funerary relief Greek, Attic, c. 330 B.C. |
For all of our technology, our cell phones, computers, fax machines...We have lost the ability to make 'art'--at least on this level. The ability to crack a single block of marble to release a being inside.

Think of everything she has seen so far.
Figure of a woman Roman, 2nd century |
This was exciting to see.
Piet Mondrian |
Jackson Pollack. Closeup on a large work.
Portrait and a Dream 1953 Jackson Pollack |
Jackson Pollack probably wore his big black boots and a cigarette hanging out of his mouth when he painted this one. I think his process was more interesting than the final result.
Cathedral1947 Jackson Pollack |
I did a little Jackson Pollack on Jackson Pollack--the digital version.

Love these.
Georgia O'Keefe |
My 'macro' of Georgia's work.

I was surprised. I thought these were stems that she painted. They are actually tree trucks in snow.

You´re so right, Kim. Some weeks ago I had the chance to see some sculptures of Tilman Riemenschneider, one of the most famous wood sculptor (?) in den middle age in germany. It´s nearly incredibly to see such a statue, that a man actually can create something like this... I had the same thoughts like you had with the marble statue...
