Art, Coffee, Tea and Blogs

After coming across this first link from the Google Cultural Institute, I thought I'd take a look at some interesting art this time.

The ultra definition in these works is incredible. Working with museums around the world, Google has used its Art Camera system to capture the finest details of artworks from their collection.

Imagination Is Never Still. The Marks We Make Are Verbs

Art, Coffee, Tea and Blogs

So my doctor said I should cut down on coffee...I think I'll cut down on doctors.

So here it is May. The weather has warmed (if you live somewhere other than Fl. where its been warm for quite awhile), your fingers don't ache as much from the cold and you're ready to move forward with all of those emails to galleries, contests and other artists. BUT, remember that doing for yourself is important too. So here are a few links to wander through when the rest of the world can wait!

This 800 page color book was created long before Pantone. It’s hard not to compare the hundreds of pages of color to its contemporary equivalent, the Pantone Color Guide, which wouldn’t be published for the first time until 1963.
