artists

It's a wrap.

This thread could go whereever psychology or neuroscience goes. Science and Medicine? Or perhaps this belongs in Art. Or History. Never mind. I have been an ardent adorer of Jan Vermeer and the beauty and perfection of his paintings since 1993, I guess around this time of the year, when I saw...

Saw this artist on America's Got Talent. Just incredible. Worth the time to watch or at least google her name and watch on your own terms. You will not regret it. clGC1K7882E

Reports this morning indicate that after selling for a record 1.4 million dollars, a painting by underground artist Banksy “self-destructed” when a shredder concealed in the frame shredded the work in front of shocked auction patrons...

I'm not sure if comic books/graphic novels count as "Literature" or "Other Entertainment" so I'm going to cross-post this. The famous comic book artist Steve Dillon, the best known for his work on Preacher, Punisher, and 2000AD's Judge Dredd, but also the creator of Abslom Daak, died on...

And why? (I've specifically limited this to painters so it will be apples-to-apples comparisons.) I was just watching some of the hysteria over on the thread in SInCE about Thomas Kincaid. Wow, people take their art pretty seriously here. I've never been one to get overly excited about art...

I searched for a similar title but can't find one. For many years my favorites have been the Impressionists, particularly Monet, Renoir and Manet. I have seen many of J M W Turner's paintings in London's National Gallery and found his paintings to be atmospheric and moving, and it's easy to...

so i'm somewhat new to all this, but i'm just wondering, are people in the arts kind of mutually exclusive to skepticism? or is it just that it draws more people who are in the sciences (and all you MAGICIANS heh) and those areas and those people tend to stay away from art? i mean i know there...

Seriously, I've seen the work! And many of you have already donated items to the JREF scholarship auction.... But don't be shy! It's time to share your work with a fellow forum member! PM me and I'll get your work up in no time! Every little bit helps, and also, it's a great way to get some...

If a horoscope artist wishes to claim they can specify "detailed and unique attributes" about a persons personality and behavior that can be attested to by a spouse (in some clear and measurable scientific way) - purley on data provided on birthdate, birth time and birth locality of a given...

Hi all I'm curious, do you all believe all mediums are just con artists or what? I am part beliver and part sceptic and the sceptic side of me can't believe they're all just con artists. Are there any genuine mediums out there or is it all one big con? Regards Paul

I've posted this in P, CE & SI because some of the issues I wish to talk about touch upon censorship, although there are other issues involved as well. Keep your filthy mod-mits off my thread, mods. :mad: <---- scary face of mod-warding I would like to present two of America's best-known...

I was wondering if anyone here had an opinion one way or the other on the theory that painters in the 15th century used lenses and mirrors to assist them with drawing and painting some of their works. It supposedly worked similar to a camera obscura, but in this case a lense or mirror is used...
