Visual Arts - January 2007

I was recently at a restraunt where they had a picture much like this one of the workers eating their lunch on top of the steel beam while building something in rockefeller center

http://www.smugmug.com/photos/3797291-S.jpg

However, instead of the workers sitting on the beam it was classic movie stars on the beam (Humphrey Bogart, James Dean, Marilyn Monroe, Clark Gable, King Kong, and some others I can't think of). I'm trying to find this picture. Does anyone know of where I can find it or who the artist is?

I have been using the Pilot G-Tech 0.3 fine pen ever since high school. I like it very much because of how it enhances my hand writing.

But lately I've been having problems with my refills. Now my pen suddenly starts running thin and sometimes doesn't ink at all. This is the second time it's happened and it would be such a waste considering that there's still a lot of ink and I'd just throw it away again.

Does anyone (who is familiar with this pen) know what causes this and what I can do to make the ink flow again? Plus I would also like to know the company website so that if I don't get any info here I can also get it there.

Thanks to all answers in advance. Ü

PS. I know this sounds silly but I'm a writer and I get edgy when something like this happens.

This program must be free. It must allow me to edit, crop and add a background to my photos. A plus if it allows me to airbrush or fix flaws on my photos. Thank you!

After the death of a family member, I fould a painting deep inside of a closet. It is of Countess Spencer by Sir Joshua Reynolds. It has an original signature which I have been told by an art dealer, looks authenic. It looks like pencil and is signed Sir Joshua Reynolds. It looks to be a litheograph but is hard to tell because it is very old. I have been told by someone who restores paintings that it is well over 100 years old. Please let me know what you think. Thank you.

Okay, beautiful painting, beautiful woman (I like that she's got some meat on her), lovely painting effects and whatnot (heh, like I'd know), but WHO GIVES A WIDGET WHAT SHE'S SMILING ABOUT? Honestly, I don't understand the fascination. She's just a cheeky lady smiling for a portrait. I don't believe that scholars have actually asked for grants to research who she is and why she's friggen smiling...

Greetings !
I don't know if you have seen some of those "fantastic or fantasy worlds"... but the point is that I want to do one of these paintings. The problem is that I don't know how to draw a galaxy. I mean; I have seen that some artists do it with the computer or other kind of techinques. I'd like to know a simple one, maybe with acrilic or oil. Can somebody help me with this issue ? Could you give me a Tip or "instructions" so my painting looks real ?
Thanks and Good Luck !

I am in the process of illustrating a comic book that features a lot of bicycles. I've found that one of the more difficult things to draw by hand is a circle (the bike wheel) that is skewed in perspective.

Any tips on drawing circles / ellipses at various angles, and skewed in different ways because of perspective?
