Art on Sunday

| 0 Comments

Yesterday I was feeling rather scientific, today's links are more art-based:
Portland Museum of Arts is displaying a study of Mona Lisa, which dated before 1510, suggesting that it was either a study created by DaVinci as a prepatory work, or possibly a copy painted by one of his students shortly after the creation of the original Mona Lisa.
Japan has recreated the voice of Mona Lisa based on research from an accoustic crime lab.
Real Snake on a Plane. Life imitating art, but no Samuel L. Jackson on this flight.
The Ghibli Museum has some wonderful globes painted by Miyazaki on display.
Interview with Gez Fry, who explains how he learned to to do Japanese Style Animation-Illustrations, and break into a very competitive market as a freelance artist.
