An Explanation of Sorts
In case you were wondering, the reason that I post art and quotes by the artists is to throw a little culture into my blog. I have received many words of encouragement on this almost-daily subject matter. I enjoy the actions in the searching for images and information on the artwork. It’s like a miniature research project for me. For the viewer it is a rotating art gallery.
I try to post not only work by well-known artists, but by more obscure people as well. If I choose a popular person as the subject, I try to post an artwork that they are not as well known for. In my art history class last semester we had to memorize slides for all the great masters, but for works that were uncharacteristic for them. You can appreciate an artwork more, in my opinion, if it is a real stretch for the artist. It shows their range.
With that said, enjoy!
I think what you do is tops!! 🙂
Keep it up.
