Inspiring Art

Usually, art that is detailed and has a strange inner glow appeals to me. So, for instance, Girl with a Pearl Earring, or Edgar Degas really inspire me. It's very haunting...

Anyway, I found this artist Amy Sol recently, and even though it's definitely very different from what I generally admire, I must say I LOVE IT!

It's very fairy tale like. And, anyone who knows me well knows that I love fairy tales, and the mood it gives off. It doesn't matter if they're Persian, Chinese, Swedish... I love all fairy tales... and it's hard to find one that I haven't read already.

But check it out!

"Garden of the Dormant Giants"

"Blossoms Harvest"

"Dream of a Distant Cousin"

"Embers of Old Spring"

"Cloverine Slumber"

"Come Out of the Sea"
To You From My View
"To You From My View"
Helo Sea Pony
"Hello Sea Pony"

"town mouse, country mouse"

I can't get enough of this stuff! This may be my inspiration to get back into art again. My boyfriend every once in a while heckles me about it... since I have completely left that aspect of my life... However, this art is great to copy! Yes, yes, I just don't have the creativity at all... but I love copying art so I can have a very cheap (also not as good) version.
See... I am very cheap... Just the other night I had a DREAM about being cheap. I was with an old good friend and I was saying over and over, "Andy, NO, NO, it's too expensive." My boyfriend told me this when I woke up. He was awake because he is a hard worker and I have to sleep when it gets dark on weekdays.
Actually, being cheap is one of the reasons why I quit. Do you know how expensive canvases cost? geez!
It looks like Amy Sol uses wood as template... very smart and it works well too!

I rarely leave a response, however i did some searching
and wound up here "Inspiring Art". And I do have 2 questions for you
if it's allright. Could it be only me or does it look as if like a few of the remarks look like they are written by brain dead individuals? :-P And, if you are writing on other sites, I'd like to follow anything fresh you
have to post. Could you make a list of all of your social sites like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?
