“Daughter of the Deep” by Josephine Wall, may seem at first as though it is a dark painting, filled with some kind of underwater evil. However, the mermaid in this painting is extremely misunderstood, and gives the initial appearance that is so far from what the artist had planned …

“Overlook Café II” by Sung Kim is part two of the scenic overlook café paintings. In “Overlook Café II”, you get a glimpse of the café from a different angle, and there is an area of tables and chairs for outdoor dining.
First, I like the soothing feel of the …

“The Olive Grove” painted by Vincent Van Gogh is another painting he did of Olive trees which could easily be mistaken for his other painting “Olive Trees”. “The Olive Grove” and “Olive Trees” have a lot of similarities and differences.
I like “The Olive Grove” because it captures my favorite …

It’s a beautiful DIY art & it’s so easy, although I never tried it before. I’ve watch a lot of videos on youtube on how to make it. And it looks so fun, and it would be funner if you do it with your friends ;). What you need …

“Mulberry Tree” painted by Vincent Van Gogh is one of his emotional pieces to me. At first glance you immediately think of winter which is usually a gloomy and sad time of the year, but the more you study the painting you begin to realize how sad it …

Going through the Internet to find artists of today, I found an outstanding painting entitled “HB Tribute” by expressionist oil painter Joshua Serafin, a 25-year-old residence of California Huntington Beach, was chosen as the selected entry in the city’s annual Senate Art Competition.

“The Bedroom At Arles” painted by Vincent Van Gogh is a painting of his room in the place he was staying in Arles. I think the painting captures how modest his living arrangements were.
The thing I like about “The Bedroom At Arles” is how “normal” Van Gogh appeared. Even …

Gouache paints are basically opaque watercolours. That have a binding agent and a higher ratio of pigments to water; white pigment is added to them to make them opaque. Designers and illustrators initially used gouache however many artists are switching to a digital format now a days.

The thing that is inescapable about “The Sower” is how rich the colors are. Before I could even get to the story …

“Sunflowers” painted by Vincent Van Gogh is a painting of a single sunflower. I like this painting; however, to really comprehend what the painting is about, you have to do some research about sunflowers. It can be a daunting tasking especially if you don’t know anything about sunflowers or …

Dali was truly at the forefront of modern art as we know it with his role as a surrealist. I can honestly not find a piece by Dali that I don’t like in some way, shape or form. It’s clear that a lot of thought and time went into …

I think this FindArtInfo is the best website to search information about your art or artist. Guess what? It’s for free. Unbelievable. Sometimes, when we see a good art or painting which has a sign on it, we would like to know about the artist itself. Where do we …

Pablo Picasso’s work has always been amazing and far out of the ordinary from what everyone was used to seeing. The Old Guitarist is no exception to it either but like every one of Picasso’s painting they each hold a unique message to the viewer. Perhaps his message is …

“Church At Auvers” painted by Vincent Van Gogh is a painting of a church in France.
The thing I found interesting about “Church At Auvers” is that it’s the first religious painting I’ve come across thus far by Van Gogh. The painting is surprising because, to me, Van Gogh …

“Skull With Burning Cigarette” painted by Vincent Van Gogh is probably one of his most morbid and enticing paintings thus far for me. The painting is of a human skeleton against a black background with a lit cigarette between its teeth.
I am head-over-heels in love with “Skull With Burning …

“Starry Night” painted by Vincent Van Gogh is probably one of his most recognized pieces. I remember seeing the painting at an early age in my language arts textbook in elementary and middle school as well as my English textbooks in high school.
I like “Starry Night” because of Van …

This has always been on of my favorite Pablo Picasso paintings. It is so interesting and captures your attention with its unique colors and excellent blend of textures. The painting shows a nude woman (back) in a fetal position holding on to her knees. It is simple, yet amazing.

The painting entitled “A Little Mischief” by Karen Latham is the perfect painting to depict a fox cub doing what they do best, looking for a little mischief. The honest beauty of this painting lies within the art of the natural world that the artist creates, as well as …

A painting entitled “Kiss of Life” from Josephine Wall, is a wonderful piece of art that demonstrates the magic and power of love. How it can suddenly strike us at strange places where we may not seem to think we can find it there, and the beautiful and fantastical …

I’ve only read about this site before I went to South Korea. When I arrived in South Korea, I was not able to find it. Maybe because I was not confident in touring the Incheon International Airport. Anyway, fefore I went back to my home country I managed to …

I’ve been to the Van Gogh Museum only twice. Once in the late 1980s and the second time this year. My lifetime goal was to be able to see the Starry Night ever since we learned about it in school. I had that chance when Van Gogh’s famous painting …

The painting entitled “Clown” by Leonid Afremov stirs up something inside of me that brings me back to child like dreams of fantasy and wonder, as well an un-doubtable sadness. The colors are brilliant and swirl to truly create something straight from the imagination.
It is not secret that …

Amongst the many art websites and communities out here, “Deviant Art” is probably the most famous and popular one of all the internet. It is an artist’s special place where they can share all of their artworks - be in textile (costumes) art, oil paiting, artistic nude, digital art, …

“Landscape With Olive Trees” painted by Vincent Van Gogh is a landscape painting with an eerie feel to it. I love Edgar Allen Poe’s stories and the degree of eeriness in Van Gogh’s painting reminds me of that feeling when I read Poe’s stories.

Painstiks are the inventive combination of acrylic paints and oil pastels, and quite possibly the best excuse to revert back to finger painting. Paintstiks are extremely fun to use; they have a self-sealing outer layer that you peel off each time you want to use them, so they’re always …

This museum was closed for a few months, and the grand reopening, widely anticipated, brought a few raves during our visit for some key points.
