I LOVE the work of Mark Ryden, for technique and for subject matter

musicman · 07-12-2011, 03:19 AM

I love Trish Romance work. The winter scenes, the time frames of 1800/ early 1900. The old houses, huge fire places, horse and carriages. A much more simpler time.

Recently I was shoping at the goodwill store bear by,I didnt really need anything but I often go just to brouse the place,As I was checking out the store I passed a large mirror with somethng behind it,I kept walking but I had he nagging feeling I should go back and see what was behing the morror..so I did.What I found was a hand painted water color of a native american woman rideing a paint horse draging a travios.It was a winter pic cause she was wraped in a colorful blanket with desert mountains in the back ground,it was well mounted and framed..I have no Idea who JC Madden is but the work is really good.

AS I posted earler I bought a watercolor that was signed by jCMadden,well ive been doing some checking up on this picture,seems like jCMadden has works that have been soled in several art auctions..if the signature is really hers my $7.95 watercolor will be worth a fair amount of $$.Her history is amazeing she was born of slaves and ended up a millionair liveing in NYC,her family had a buisness of hair products for black men and women,she was born in Louisiana and passed in 1919 at age 58.I am still doing some reserch and have been in contact by email with the last auction house that sold a watercolor of hers that is very simular to the one I have.I dont know if it will pan out cause im not that lucky, but one can dream.Since she passed in 1919 there is no telling how old this picture is.

I have a deep love of various Japanese artists and prints of landscapes. Most of them from about the 1700's but a few contemporary ones. I also love Tibetian, javanese, balinese and Indian (more so southern India) art.

western paintings can be cool and I have a few favourites but they just don't move me as much.

my favorite non-western artworks are the paintings of the indigenous ppl of Australia

Blowing glass is an intricate process and I once saw an exhibit of his at the Bellagio in Las Vegas (couldn't find the photos I took of it, but found this one online). Dave Chihuly is a fabulous artist! I love the rich depth of colors he uses when he creates glass works of art.
