As amateurs we often wonder why a certain painting is critically acclaimed and we try to make sense of it. Suddnely, someday you come across a particular artwork that changes your perception about art. I am an artist myself. My perception and views were shattered when I was stunned by the work of Man Ray, Vincent Van Gogh, Salvador Dali, and Andy Warhol. These are my favorites.

Man Ray packed a cylindrical glass tower with marbles. He packed the lid and named it 'New York'. Dali painted the memories of his dreams, the melting clocks. Share your experience of your moment of realisation, your shift of perception in terms of art.

Tell us who you appreciate and what you like in particular about that artist.

I have a portfolio to fill out in my art class, but the teacher told me that web-designing is not an art and would not let me do it unless I can convince her otherwise. Does anyone have any suggestions to help me convince this teacher and prove to her that web-design really is an art form? Thanks for your help!

so, this was the first day back at school. i get in my art class and the teacher hands out this paper asking "what statement do you want to make with your art". she said that she wants us to go along with some type of theme.. it sucks because i dont like themes, i like each of my artwork pieces having their own statement.. not relating to each other. but, you know, ive got to listen to what she says.. so i was wondering.. what theme should i pick?

p.s. i really enjoy surreal artwork. salvador dali is my favourite artist and biggest influence.

I remember when I was in grade 6, we had to recreate our own versions of pictures using similar medium. One of them, which I never got around to recreating myself, I believe was "The great wave of Kanagawa" by Katsushika Hokusai. What medium would he have used for his original picture?

I need some 8'' to 10'' diameter clear pipe. It can be PVC, Tenite, etc. As long as it is over 1' in length it can be scrap or new. I am looking for it to be $5 to $10 a foot. Or free if it is scrap. (I can find brand new 8'' diameter, clear PVC for $35 a foot but would like it to be cheaper.) I am located in SW Ohio so somewhere areound there would be great!

Thanks!
