 UnknownFrank Parson Parson is a Tucson artist (my hometown) who loves trains. I had the fortune of meeting this very gracsious artist one day after getting a coffee at Starbucks and then browsing the gallery next door. I was wandering about when I saw the trains on the back wall. I walked over and remarked to the lady tending the gallery that they were beautiful and t... (See the whole comment)

 Self-PortraitJack Vettriano Self-Portrait of the artist, the smoker. Grand. This is one of the best self-portraits I've ever encountered. Its simply egotistical. The composition is simple, except for the artist himself. He is brightly lit, the center of it all. His clothes, handsome, slightly wrinkled, unselfconscious. He is not afraid to hold the viewers gaze -- facin... (See the whole comment)

 Convex and ConcaveM. C. Escher From website: "Three little houses stand near one another, each under a crossvaulted roof. We have an exterior view of the left-hand house, and interior view of the right-hand one and an either exterior or interior view of the one in the middle, according to choice. There are several similar inversions illustrated in this print; let us describe... (See the whole comment)

 Hazards and Benefits of BenevolenceJoseph Maurone I originally started this painting as a depiction of the crab bucket mentality, but it changed with the aftermath of Katrina. I think the hurricane challenged me morally in my response. Part of me says the victims should have known and left, and prepared in advance. Part of me says the stranded suffer as a result on their reliance on government ... (See the whole comment)

 Romantic Realism is alive and well in Burlingame, Ca.Quent Cordair The wonderful people at Quent Cordair Fine Art have been hard at work on their expansion to the gallery. They've acquired the space next door to the present location and they've joined the two together. The very last of the construction, painting, floors, and electrical should be finished within the next couple of days. Soon they will have twice as... (See the whole comment)

 JordanBosch Fawstin This is a portrait of Michael Jordan that I achieved through oil based colored pencils along with a touch of black ink and white paint. It's for sale to anyone who can give me an offer I can't refuse.

 Stoned FaceA. Robert Malcom Even in the seriousness of Art, there is humor, wherein, thru subtle and not so subtle usage, there shows the sense of malevolency in its proper format, almost as if the same used in political illustratings. Note the bored look, the drool off the tongue, the patient stoneness of the outer, with the intimacy of the inner. It is the first in a seri... (See the whole comment)

 View MasterA. Robert Malcom The culmination of a series of murals which lead to the space theme/title. It is one of the most dynamic of space/human paintings made that I have ever seen, and fully shows the thrill of 'being out there', a space artist, on his platform, rendering the scene before him using digital means - sort of the artist's alter-ego self portrait.

 When Pigs FlyBosch Fawstin This is a teaser for my next graphic novel titled The Infidel. The Infidel is about a counter jihadist cartoonist whose work gets on the radar of the enemy. It deals with how ideology can trump all other values in certain individuals, no matter their prior predisposition in life. It revolves around two estranged American born brothers from a Mus...

 Self-Made ManBobbie Carlyle Isn't this the sculpture for nearly everyone here? As a human, this inspires me; as a person, it visually encapsulates my personality; as a woman, it is my aspiration to be worthy of that.

 First HeatBryan Larsen This painting obviously goes beyond "reference" to "a chapter out of" Atlas Shrugged. Maybe I'm wary of references because they're typically so worn out and pretentious. Well, Larsen unapologetically lifts a scene from Atlas, and *WOW*! I think it takes guts these days to venture beyond banal, bucholic landscapes to an industrial interior and be ab...

 Nymphs and SatyrWilliam Bouguereau One of my top five. A magnificent work by one of the greatest painters of all time. Bouguereau's mastery in rendering the human figure is second to none. Delightful contrasts abound as frolicsome nymphs drag a satyr down to the water: Effortless grace trumping futile resistance; luminous opposite dark complexion; feminine curves versu...

 NighthawksEdward Hopper There's just something about this man's paintings that just resonates with me. Many times I am alone, but not lonely. I could be in a group for a while and realize that I haven't spoken to anyone at all - that I'm observing them, not with them. Sometimes I'm 'awakened' from this reverie-like state with the question, "Why are you sad"? To which I'll... (See the whole comment)
