Sometimes, all you need is a little bit of solace...(or maybe a lot 😊). A vision that could move a heart of stone: Frank Dicksee's "The Mother". #art #traditionalart #painting #oilpainting #beautifulwoman #beautifulgirl #dress #fashion #motherhood #mother #feminine

What must it have been like, to head westward on those trails through that seemingly endless land, only to find it ends...in a place as beautiful as this. No wonder so many of them decided to call Oregon home... Captured by yours truly last July, "Sentinel of the Sea". #art

The best nights are made of this... Georg Pauli's capture of a vibe, "Evening Reading". #art #traditionalart #painting #oilpainting #beautifulwoman #beautifulgirl

I'm not even sure what's going on here, but I do know one thing: I'd rather be here than...wherever you call the less pampering environment I'm in today. ☺️ "A Foregone Conclusion" by Lawrence Alma-Tadema. #art #traditionalart #painting #oilpainting #beautifulwoman

A machine that will take us to the stars...and perhaps beyond. From yours truly, "Ignition, full thrust". #art #digitialart #digitalpainting #painting #spaceart #spaceflight #spacecraft #scifi #scifiart #starship #sciencefiction #sciencefictionart

I feel like I've gone to the Mediterranean, yet I've yet to be in an atmosphere like this. I would feel cheated, but the energy in this painting is so beautiful I just don't care...I just sigh and think "maybe...some day..." "A Dance by the Sea" by Charles-Amable Lenoir. #art

A few still follow the old ways... My capture of what one might fear is a dying culture, at least for those of us bereft of millions. Crescent City, August 2025: "For All We Know, We're All That's Left". #art #photography #sea #ocean #surf #surfing #surfer #PacificOcean

A phrase that's never described me, but Lawrence Alma-Tadema makes it look so nice...but then again, doesn't he always? "Fortune's Favourite". #art #traditionalart #painting #oilpainting #beautifulwoman #beautifulgirl

Is it the *best* picture I've taken? I wouldn't say that, necessarily, but it's one of the captures I'm most proud of getting, because it just has a certain fine quality to it. From just inland of Seaside, Oregon, "Sunrise in the Rainforest". #art #photography #Cascadia #forest

I know Christmas has conquered everything up until November 1, but spare a thought for the bounty of the harvest, for in America at least it's not even Thanksgiving yet! So many lovely vibes fit in this time of year, such as the one embodied by Alfons Mucha's painting here,

November thunderheads are the best... Captured on the road in Wyoming, "Chasing the Storm". #art #photography #thunderstorm #clouds #cloudscape #sky #skyscape #landscape #sublimelandscape #Wyoming #AmericanWest #highway #roadway #road #travel #driving

Perhaps neither saint nor god is what we really need to be gazing at us through stained glass, but rather an image like this: one that cuts through the dark psychic force that is modernity and whispers "you can be a fun person too...". From Alfons Mucha: "Dance". #art
