For example, Rodin's "Belle Heaulmière" or Duffy Sherdan's "Stan Kryszczak".<br /><br />Even a cat's butt can be great addition if composed well, with some imagination.Calladushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17620879847877868166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5736821.post-75837374791013479392010-03-05T20:41:05.622-08:002010-03-05T20:41:05.622-08:00Wow.

Everyone and everything has an aspect of beauty, and I pride myself on generally being able to find it.<br /><br />When I paint a cougar, I'm not going to paint its ass. When I paint a friend, I'm not going to paint her warts and moles.<br /><br />Wow.MrsBonnieMoorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11018873300923112577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5736821.post-83322374879854069862009-12-29T11:03:47.654-08:002009-12-29T11:03:47.654-08:00Start with artrenewal.org.

The elites were increasingly scandalized when the middle class had greater access to art. The Pop Art movement exploited this wedge consciously, particularly Keith Haring's innovation of creating stores which sold nothing but his materials. And now we have Thomas Kinkade factory outlets in shopping malls everywhere, further antagonizing the elitist voice within art.<BR/><BR/>The Winterhalter debate, of course, is about elites struggling with each other. But there is always a voice in the art world stretching back to the Academic era which says "Mine! Mine! You can't have this!" Those who follow the market are somehow seen as treacherous.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04854543617806427302noreply@blogger.com
