Today’s featured art is Rustic Windmill by Jenice McQuarrie

A windmill sits in the Arizona desert in this digital artwork.

I can imagine it pumping water for some plucky rancher’s herd of cows. How hard to scrape out a living in a dry climate where water is scarce.

Today’s featured art is What Could Be by Auggie Falzarano

A futuristic abstract scene with planets (or moons) floating above the horizon of a watery world capture the imagination with thoughts of possible other worlds.

Anyone with an interest in science fiction has probably dreamed of places like this, with bright sharp colors plus interesting shapes and patterns. Who knows what may be somewhere, somewhen?

Wouldn’t this be a great print for your wall bringing thoughts of other worlds?

Today’s featured art is Linda Lee Bouchard Tugboat by Vincent O’Hare

Interesting art with bright colors depicting the Linda Lee Bouchard tugboat in New York Harbor off the coast of Manhattan, done in a fauvist style.

The bold colors and distortion are characteristic of fauvism, which was a short lived movement in the early 20th century.

What matters to me, is not how long a artistic movement lasted but the results of art done in that style. And… I like the results as shown in this artwork.

Today’s featured art is Impatient Caterpillar by John Schwegel

What a fun illustration of a green caterpillar who just can’t wait to fly. He’s gotten up into the sky with a bunch of floating orange balloons. He smiles while floating in the bright blue sky. What a great piece of art this would be in a kid’s room. I can easily imagine a framed print hanging on the wall.
