Blithe's Favourite Art - Gallery Index

There was always art of some sort occurring around me as I grew up, from the graffiti wall in the bathroom to mum and her oil paints. I suppose an enjoyment of art was inevitable, though it is a party I have arrived at late. Now, in my twenties I have started to paint. I chose water colours for one simple reason, that none of the other geniuses in my family use them, giving me the freedom to learn on my own. I love it. Maybe one day I'll have the guts to put some of my own stuff up here too.

Since opening my original site, using some of my favorite pictures, many people have approached me wanting to know who the artists are and more about their work. This section is to do just that, and to hopefully discover a whole lot of new artists that I will enjoy also. So check out the galleries and browse through some stunning work by people a whole lot more talented than I'll ever be. Some are amateur artists you may not of heard of whose work I stumbled upon during trips around Elfwood, others are old masters and artists making a living from their work. Where possible I've linked to their official sites.

Note: As far as I have been able I've credited the artists, however there are huge numbers of pictures that I have been unable to track down. If anyone has information about any picture or artist here that is not receiving the credit they so richly deserve please email me and I'll rectify that.

Disclaimer: The artists retain copyright for their own work and no permission is grated for these pictures to be reproduced. In displaying these pictures I mean no breach of copyright or offence to the artists. I will remove any object deemed to be in violation upon request or give full and proper credit.

One last thing: I've had to use a server with pop-up ads for this part of the site, for this I apologize if it spoils the pages ahead but with so much content I had to take whatever free webspace was available. So here's a trick. If you disable scripting in your browser's options (in MS Internet Explorer it's in the security > custom menu...not too sure about Netscape and other browsers but I'm sure if you look around you'll find it) this will totally banish pop-ups from these pages. I hope you'll enjoy your stay and come back often as I'll be adding things all the time.

Blithe.
