Visual Arts - September 2006

I am searching for the other five Masters knots done by da Vinci, Durer etc... Leonardo's Concantenation and Albert Durer "sech knoten" are in George Bains Book but I need the other 5. I have seen them on a green fold out card back in the mid 90's but didn't buy it. I am currently doing Leonardo's knot on canvas 28" in diameter and I want to do all 7 in one collection. Thank you for any help that you can provide.

I'm a young artist, and I use copyrighted lyrics in my drawings...can I be sued even if they're not used for a commercial purpose ( I don't sell the drawings or anything...just post them on myspace and sites like this...)?

I have seen some highly detailed sculptures of a person's face and was just wondering how these artists did it? Are their tricks to achieving this level of realism or is the process of sculpturing a face as painstaking as it looks? I know that in painting some artists trace the model, for realism.

How long does it take to become this good?

I want to take up sculpturing.

I want to take nice portraits of my son with my film SLR rebel. I keep hearing people saying that they use natural light. I want to buy a plain black and plain white back drop and take photos of him on there, but I always get really yellow looking photos with bad shadows. I have photoshop elements to use for editing but no amount of editing can fix what I did wrong. Can anyone help suggest how to position my son, backdrop, what speed my camera should be at etc. to get that type of look. I have the kit lens (which I know isnt always the best) and I have a 75-300mm. What would you suggest? ANY and ALL help would be great.

I mean when you look at modern painters, everybody that does the choosing of great painters always opt for the classical type of painter; still life, portraiture, landscapes. But sci-fi/fantasy painters are some of the best anywhere and there are some really fantastic painters. My personal favorites are Frazetta, Whelan and Royo. Anyone have any more?

It is really frustrating how I cannot take any pictures of the fantastic Art I see, not just in the Louvre but any art gallary. What's the problem, why aren't I aloud to do this?

They are both signed with characters and of good quality . They belonged to my Grandmother , she probably purchased them in the 60s . How can I trace the Artist and who would know what they are valued at
