Oooh, my chance to show off as a culture vulture!! Here is an artist I bet no one else has heard of:

Mark I'Anson

He's a Scottish artist, who does portraits of great Scottish footballers.

PS BL, I thought you would have gone for Grandma Moses

 

[Blonde Logic]

Couldnt pass on my George Rodrique - he is a special artist to me.

 

[Debbi8489]

Oh dear, this is where I have to confess...I have no idea who he is! I will have to google him to find out. I'm not really a culture vulture. i just make excellent use of the free facilities in Edinburgh *scuttles away in embarrassment*

 

[Blonde Logic]

He is from Louisianna. WHy I love him so much, is he paints "Blue DOg." Now Blue Dog is the ghost of his beloved fog, "Blue Dog" who died - and he appears in ALL sorts of paintings. Presidential portraits, random scenerey, abstracts, all sorts. But the story of blue dog - there is a book, and its beautiful.

 

[Blonde Logic]

This is Blue Dog. One of many many examples.

another..

I love him just beacuse of the story behind it.

 

[Debbi8489]

Aw! That is so sweet. I definately havent heard of him. I would remember Blue Dog.

I'm thinking that you are a very bad influence BL. I am currently surfing for a Jack Vettriano painting to buy! Maybe that could be my treat for getting to target??
