Living the Dream

Counterintuitively, David Gluck was a painter before taking up tattooing little more than a decade ago. While skin is a completely different substrate and ink a far cry from oil paint, the skills must be transferrable to some degree because there is a wait-time of nine months to get an appointment with him.

Blended Beauty

It’s not often we get the chance to see paintings in a conversation with one another that springs from an actual conversation between artists. A new show at Vanessa Rothe Fine Art Gallery does just that.

Night and Day

Mood is only as limited as one’s ability to articulate the nuances of emotion. In reference to a painting, it signifies the general atmosphere, state of mind or the instinctual reaction the art evokes within the viewer.

Thresholds

While etymologists continue to debate the derivation of the word threshold, its meaning continues to be a transitional space from one physical, emotional, intellectual place to another.

Beautiful FACES

The portrait artist John Singer Sargent (1856-1925) wrote, “I do not judge, I only chronicle.” Yet, he wasn’t above being provocative, painting a portrait of Isabella Stew art Gardiner that her husband wouldn’t allow to be shown publicly while he was alive, and painting a portrait of a Parisian socialite for the 1884 Salon that set Parisians on their ear.

Beautiful Variety
