In his novel "The Stepford Wives," Ira Levin included a character, Ike Mazzard, based on Vargas. He would draw portraits of the women before they were "Stepfordized" and then the new, improved version was an "Ike Mazzard girl." |
Favorite Artists
Lee Roberson - he is an artist in the Smoky Mountains. I have quite a few of his works hanging in my house, even a few unframed ones as well. His work speaks to me as I'm a great fan of the Smokies and a lil town called Townsend, TN. It's a great refuge for me and his paintings are typical of the area landscape. I have the one below hanging over my bed.

One of my favorites is the one of the old Cooper River Bridges in Charleston, SC before their demolition. http://www.pressomatic.com/jimbootha...he-Bridges.jpg |

I have a guestion for art lovers here especially the lovers of Impressionist artists. I remember the teacher in art class showing us a painting that I just loved. And I have been looking for it for years on the internet. I believe it was either an Italian or a Spanard that painted it.
It shows a scene with St. Francis of Assis; a very detailed painting of him with animals. One can almost see the individual eyelashes on the subjects that is how detailed it is. I thought it was El Greco or Velaquez but have not see anything like that in their works. Anyone have any idea? |

any of these? http://www.google.com/images?um=1&hl...f&oq=&gs_rfai= From the description you provide it sounds like an Italian Renaissance painting, rather an Impressionist. But that is just a guess. One of my favourites of Francis is Caravaggio's 'St. Francis in Ecstasy' http://www.backtoclassics.com/images...sinecstasy.jpg I <3 Caravaggio! |
More memories of the painting. It was set outdoors with lots of trees. I checked out the link you provided (thank you very much) and it was not there. I HAVE to find it. LOL
