Thanks Matt for posting the fine illustrations by Christopher Hampson in your book. I wasn't familiar with the book - sounds really interesting.

And thanks to neebs for more links...

neebee- I think you've really found a niche with your pet portraits, they're awesome.


My sister Betsy had some art showing in a few galleries in Phoenix recently.
All work I'd seen before but extra special to see since her passing.




Gosh dang I miss her so much but her legacy and influence is still so strong- of course with family and friends, but with the Phoenix art community.

hey there say, ... another 'arnold' ... which was the name on some painting of hers, that i am looking for... (windmill) ...

well, JUST found this:
this arnold (not the one i was looking for, though) has his own interesting themes, too:

http://www.fribergfineart.com/arnoldFriberg.html

(wow, very interesting life)...



dear canadians, here, tami, etc,
has anyone seen any of his work??

Arnold Friberg learned to paint horses when he began painting the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in the late 1930's for the Northwest Paper Company Calendars. To date, he has done almost 300 Mountie paintings, which has earned him a special place among his subjects. He is the only American who has ever been made an honorary member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. In 1978 as a result of his work with the Mounties, he was commissioned to do an almost life-size portrait of H.R.H. Prince Charles with his great horse "Centennial", the great-grandson of Man-O-War. This was done at a studio in the Buckingham Palace.


TWO quotes from him:


"Art to me is a service, to bring enrichment to people's lives. That's why I want my art to be perfectly understood. One of the things I work for is clarity. That doesn't mean hard-edged forms, but clarity of the picture: what time of day, what kind of lighting, where it is."



“All you leave the world is what you’ve done. No one will ever know the conditions, the comments, the pressures. Only the work remains.”


wow, i never saw a collection of canadian mounties, before...
if you click on the yahoo image link above, he did many other things, many religious stuff, and american west/indian rural stuff, too...


THESE are really neat, and you can feel the 'ambiance' and feel the moment with their involvement with each other, very special...

Hey, thanks for the comments.

The mindset from climbing can be a good basis for making it as a professional artist.
You have to believe in your process, not be afraid to start and the have confidence and the willingness to put in the dedicated hard work to to see it through.
And most importantly, knowing when to stop.

Definitely not for the faint of heart!

Nice mwtal-work, SGropp!

Been re-purposing flooring, wainscoating cap and other wood scraps to make frames for some of my pictures. Had to teach myself matting along the way - here's some of the results of the last month:
