Cool Artists of the Week


Paul S. Brown
Classical Realism
This man loves great wine and cigars
as well as many other finer things in life
Notice his color choices - evidence of the "three finger salute!"
He paints his still lifes with incredible painterly detail - but-
Notice how loose his strokes become in the landscapes
Absolutely stunning work
(He grinds his own oil paint!)

Angela Fraleigh

mixes representational images with abstractions

she understands light - and knows how to use color

I hope you all had a restful Thanksgiving
I am presently working on a huge portrait in oil of my son, Brooks
(as well as an addition to the Surface Tension series)
Can't wait to share it with you - maybe in a few days
Wonderful model!

Atlases map and mirror our journeys of discovery and often make visible more than just physical terrain; driven by our needs and desires, they embolden us to venture into the unknown. From our coordinates in Southeast Asia, the arc of our shared histories encompasses East and South Asia. These regions bear the imprints of one another's diverse cultures, even as boundaries are also constantly reimagined. Fraught and unstable, these borders are characterized by fluid mo
