The combination of the abstract squares and the poppies is really cool.

I like this one. It's a very compelling abstract. It kind of reminds me of one of my favorite painters Stuart Davis when I look at it small but much less like him close up.

Along College St. W. near Bathurst St. - Toronto, Canada

I walk down College Street a lot and I always enjoy this painting. It's outside a bar.

I like that in the photo the man on the street is a similar size to the painted figures.

This part of College Street is an Italian neighborhood that has a lot of new and trendy bars.

I love the tiny elephants inside and those unusual plants that she is watering. What a fun and intricate drawing it is.

La Peste

I enjoy the cover art on a lot of old books. What I most like about this one is all the rats silhouetted in the forground.

I love old style signs like this one.

Winter tale

I love the colors and light in this. Looking at it makes me want to climb to the top of that hill. I also like the way the trees are drawn. It's almost an animation style, at least it reminds me of those old cartoons that have great backgrounds.

Pomegranate and Passionfruit

I especially love the way the little pomegranate seed housings look with their little empty spots for the seeds to go in. I'm very partial to pomegranates in any case, to look at or eat.

oil on canvas: "waiting for night"

oil on canvas: "waiting for night", originally uploaded by tie78reu.

This is an oil painting that looks a lot like acrylic. I wonder why the artist uses oil. Looking at this makes me think about painting my walls purple and the ceiling lavender. This is pretty much what I envisioned my ideal studio to be like when I was growing up.

portrait of a girl with red tulip

An amazing portrait. It reminds me of a book I had when I was little of these colonial American portraits painted by traveling portrait painters. It was a book I really liked, I enjoyed going through it and taking a long time to look at all the pictures and the things that were put in the background.

This artist has a lot more work that I am enjoying looking at, in diferent styles. He has a great art blog, very thoughtful and captivating images.

I love the dolls made by Soren, my LiveJournal friend. This one is my favorite, with the oak leaf wings and acorn hat. So very fall!

Evening in neighbourhood

This painting reminds me of Toronto a little, in the colors and shape of the building.

Jugalbandhi

Jugalbandhi, originally uploaded by venantius.

The is one of those paintings I could look at for a long time. It's interesting to see the diferent way each animal is holding it's instrument. The way the light falls gives it kind of a 3d effect. The medium is gouche, kind of an opaque watercolor. I've always had problems trying to paint with it, so I really admire anyone who call produce that effect.

Dance of the symbols

I like the colors in this one, the bright white and deep green, red and blue. It has that feel of abstract art of the late 1950s.

a farewell to summer

I like this one because it's a beautiful and clever image, and because I'm always happy to see summer end. Fall is my favorite time of the year. I hate hot weather and it's such a relief to see the last of it.

I love this artist's series of 100 Tea Pot still lifes. They are bright and primitive and funny. A lot of them have cactus too, which I am partial to.
