Granny's been dead a year, so the artist o' the day is a Swede like her. Karl Larsson may be a bit Rockwell for some...pretty sure he never painted an amputee or an exploding person...but he's my favorite today anyways.

Photobucket. It's user friendly, so much so that a relative fool such as myself can make it work. Or irfan view, if you feel like downloading a program. Photobucket's the way to go from a pc bang - just save the image to desktop and go from there. You can delete it after you have uploaded, or leave a piece of culture behind. They actually have a 'forum size' in their editing choices.
Today it's Bruegel for his Land of Cockaigne. Perhaps it's the 6.9 talking...

Merci Beaucoup, Kimchi. I'll get to work on that soon and make this thing more readable.

Chuck Close is pretty fantastic, in my humble opinion. But, strangely enough, I'm also a huge fan of Jim Dine.

Regardless of the aims, comics are still an intensely time consuming art-form to create. Requiring a significantly higher level of attention to craft, creativity, and detail than, say, turning on the B&W mode on your digital camera, tilting it five degrees, and pointing it at a Korean.

Isn't learning fun?


Learning is fun, maybe Ill educate you.

1. I never claim to be artistic. personally I cant stand art photography. The only thing I want to lay claim to is that with my camera I record what is around me.

2. I tilt rarely, VERY rarely. I could think of perhaps a handful of tilted shots Ive taken.

3. I never turn on the b/w mode in my camera. I shoot in RAW and RGB. A digital sensor is shite when it comes to b/w. Only a manual conversion from RGB can yield something that approaches film quality. Proper b/w conversion techniques take a lot of practice to do well and the workflow form an RGB RAW file to a BW final product is more time consuming than a Garfield burp sequence.

Gentlemen, for obvious reasons arguments on this post must be restricted to 20 words or less.

And today it's Paik, Nam-June. This is on permanent display at the National Museum of Contemporary Art
in Seoul.

More is better.

Doesn't really come through in a pic, tho.
