Judy Larson Artwork

Art Date Monday, April 10th, 2006

Fantastic!

Judy Larson always knew she was going to be an artist. She was surrounded by them as a child, and was particularly inspired by her father, a professional illustrator.

Judy received a Bachelor of Science degree in Commercial Art from Pacific Union College in Northern California, then spent the next 17 years as a commercial artist, illustrator and art director.

In 1988, influenced by her love of nature and animals, Judy devoted her time to wildlife art. Her primary focus in each of her paintings is the animal, with the horse as a recurring subject.

Her unique approach to her work is through the use of scratch board–a technique that can render magnificent detail but one requiring infinite patience.

Magic Metal

Art Date Tuesday, April 4th, 2006

Amazing art by Ursula Vernon.

Well, anyway. I’m the artist, I’m 27, and apparently unlike most other artists, I have not been drawing since my stubby fetal fingers could close around a prenatal pencil. I did the usual drawing as a kid, but my mother was an artist, and thus it held no romance for me, so I attempted to rebel and become a scientist. At seventeen, I sat down to Learn to Draw, since it didn’t occur to me that drawing might not be a skill you could just learn because you wanted to, or might require talent or something, and fortunately, I seemed to be right, because I’ve been drawing ever since.

Acclaimed Swiss surrealist H. R. Giger

Art Date Monday, March 20th, 2006

His paintings are ingenious. Fantastic artist!

H. R. Giger is recognized as one of the world’s foremost artists of Fantastic Realism. Born in 1940 to a chemist’s family in Chur, Switzerland, he moved in 1962 to Zurich, where he studied architecture and industrial design at the School of Applied Arts. By 1964 he was producing his first artworks, mostly ink drawings and oil paintings, resulting in his first solo exhibition in 1966, followed by the publication and world-wide distribution of his first poster edition in 1969. Shortly after, he discovered the airbrush and, along with it, his own unique freehand painting style, leading to the creation of many of his most well known works, the surrealistic Biomechanical dreamscapes, which formed the cornerstone of his fame. To date, 20 books have been published about Giger’s art.

But he also made some wonderful, more realistic work during the time he lived and traveled in Italy.

Castrovalva for example, where one already can see Escher’s fascination for high and low, close by and far away. The lithograph Atrani, a small town on the Amalfi Coast was made in 1931, but comes back for example, in his masterpiece Metamorphosis I and II
