One of my favorit artists...

... would definitely have to be Joseph Lorusso! I was lucky enough to take a workshop with Joe two years ago and he is not only a great artist but also the nicest and most modest guy you can imagine!
I love (or would that be l-u-r-v-e ?) his paintings, the color pallet and the slightly illustrative quality. But what really catches me every time is how his paintings are telling a story. You look at the old man drinking his coffee or the young couple in a restaurant and just wonder who they are, what their story is...

Not unlike with Karin's paintings....

ANOTHER FAVORITE by Linda Popple

Dawn Hartigan suggested in her last post that we look at some of our favorite artists.  Good grief!!  For me there are sooo many that I could name and listing them all at once would be difficult and I would surely leave someone out.  So, I will start with one artist that I think you will find interesting.  Her name is    Kathryn Tyrrell and her blog is Making a Mark.  She writes about art, artists, blogging, just everything that has to do with art.  From this blog you can scroll down the side and click on her other blogs.  She is an amazing artist, too.  You will learn so much from her and enjoy every minute of it!
