i have a couple of places that are my go to spots for online art gazing. art inconnu is certainly a favourite, being specifically geared toward little known & under appreciated art. i tend to sigh a lot when viewing the pieces that the curator shares… my future house is going to need a lot of wall space, that’s for sure.
many of these are from art innconu’s flickr stream

i have sorely neglected my proposed daily painting posts, but perhaps i can make up for it by showing you some beautiful portraits by swiss artist ferdinand hodler (1853 – 1918)
took a little stroll through town & discovered this beauty at the dorp street gallery. it wasn’t up on the wall yet and the gallery assistant couldn’t tell me how much it was going for… but i love it. painted by waalko dingemans, 1954.
