Expansion of "art" and "artist" groups on I Antique Online



This group is for students of, or artists that create in basically what would be considered the "outsider" genre. Art brut, visionary art, vernacular art, recovery art etc all fall under the heading "outsider" in academia these days.

To all members of I antique on Line - this is a great place, but what even makes it greater is being able to "see" you --- and by seeing you, this does not mean your actually self but an identity or pseudo image if you will, that could be anything you want to be (within reason). I have many different Avatars - or images - but here I like using a photo of my brick and mortar store. I also like using my puppies - one such photo is of my Yorkie Zoie with her five puppies beneath her, and one pup in particular named Mackie who at the same time I snapped the picture, rolled on his back. This is definitely a Kodak moment. However; you do not have to be camera proficient and can even choose clip art or anything free from the Internet.

We want you to have an enjoyable time here, and to stay a while. which means we would like to "see you" !!!!

Great Crevase Edgar Mueller.  Hard work: Together with up to five assistants,  
  Mueller painted all day long from sunrise to sunset.  
  
The picture appeared on the East Pier in   Dun Laoghaire ,  Ireland ,  
 As part of the town's Festival of World Cultures.

 
He spent five days, working 12 hours a day, to create the 250 square metre  
  Image of the crevasse, which, viewed from the correct angle, appears to be 3D.  
  He then persuaded passers- by to complete the illusion by pretending the  
  Gaping hole was real.  
  
'I wanted to play with positives and negatives to encourage people to think twice  
  About everything
 they see,' he said.  'It was a very scary scene, but when people  
  Saw it they had great fun playing on it and pretending to fall into the earth.  
  'I like to think that later, when they returned home, they might reflect more on  
 What a frightening scenario it was and say, "Wow, that was actually pretty scary."

  
Mueller, who has previously painted a giant waterfall in Canada, said he was  
  
Inspired by the British "Pavement Picasso"™ Julian Beaver, whose dramatic but  
  
More gentle 3D street images have been featured in the Daily Mail.
