Wolf Print from original Painting by Carole A. Thompson

The wolf Cerridwen is a female and was born in April, 1994. She comes from an unusual line of breeding in that she is friendlier than most wolves. She was painted by Carol Thompson, a very talented local (Arizona) artist who specializes in wolves and Native Americans. The original photo that she painted from is a picture of Cerridwen with her paws on the top of her den box peeking over the top

You know you want to do it

Now you have challenged me. Well, art refers not only to pictures, we know that. Everything can be art and the artistic value is always in the eye of the beholder.

 

Often attached to works of art are small stories, memories and achievements that one associates with it. Memories are awakened and alive. I have brought me from Bali this picture, it was a street painter in Denpasar, the capital of Bali, his pictures showed and sold. The batik painter is called Agung Petulu. We talked for a long time about his classic Balinese way of painting. It is a picture from the Gods and Mythens saga. A monkey prince is asking for the hand of a princess. The longer you look at this picture, the more loving details you see.

This painting is called " the human machine " . Each circle shows a part of the earth. All people on all earth parts are seeking  for the same goals and function according to the same principles. In  addition it should clarify the dependence of the people (through the interlocking) on different earth parts.. It is painted with metal oil colors and oil. Artist .. myself !

This picture hangs on the staircase to the attic. I have brought it with me from Hong Kong. I was there on business very much on the road. It shows the skyline of Tsim Tsa Tsui and is an oil painting. I framed it in a glas frame. I bought it from the street painter " Emil ". This showed his paintings in a waterfront area of Hong Kong.

Memories that last a lifetime, like data on a hard disk. You only have to remember and the images of the past are alive again.

 

Same with my visits at Hong-Kong´s Victoria Peak by day and at night. Even the journey to Victoria Peak was an experience with the tram

Your painting reminded me of of a shot I took several years ago.  I was working in rural SW China and would stay over in Hong Kong for a few days on my way home - dazzling city, especially in contrast with the remote areas of China.

Here’s a piece of silk embroidery that I bought when I got stranded in a small village in the mountainous area of the Guizhou Province - home of the Miao native minority.

Got this painting on silk at a tourist-trap in the Forbidden City

A piece of 1930s colored-pencil ledger art at our getaway place.

Another piece from our weekend place.  Very cool 3D Montana map metal sculpture - completely done with different welding rod and flux for coloration.

A couple of vintage Jo Mora posters.  The “Cowboy” one is an advertising piece from the 70s and may look familiar to any Byrds fan.  The “Indian” one is from the 1930s I think.
