Art That Doesn’t Suck - July 27, 2007
This week’s featured art is THE WAVE by gregory gallo
It’s sleek, it’s modern, it’s moody - it’s THE WAVE. This is one of my favorite pieces of the ones I’ve come across lately.
The use of color is fantastic and I love the use of highlights to bring out the individual lines. The mat and frame are perfect, though they can be customized upon ordering. When I remodel my office next year, this is a piece that I will seriously consider adding to the walls.
Prices for THE WAVE begin at $53.49, subject to change.

This week’s featured art is Cat Hair To Go by Barbara Burns
Abstract art is always fun. If I hadn’t listed the name of the piece, what would you have thought that orange swirl was? That’s the best part about pieces like this - so much of it is left to the imagination. This is the kind of image that gets hung on your wall and people who drop by for a visit try to figure it out.
I like the landscape orientation a lot. Too often art is square, portrait, or just a little longer than it is tall. I appreciate finding true landscape dimensions (discounting the panoramas that many photographers produce).
I like the choice of framing and matting, though they can be changed by the consumer at the time of purchase. Click through to learn more about this piece - Barbara has a nice recounting of its creation - and to perhaps purchase a print for yourself.
Prices for Cat Hair To Go begin at $25.47, subject to change.

This week’s featured art is 12 Apostles Mandala Fine Art Print by Diane Ross
I’ve long been fascinated by mandalas and kaleidescopes. I especially like images like this, built from real photographs. Pieces like this have a sense of realism that purely manufactured art doesn’t have. The choice of framing and matting is great, though like any art at ImageKind, they can be customized by the buyer. Feel free to click the image to learn more about it or to maybe purchase a print for yourself.

This week’s featured art is Dark Shell by Kate Childers
I’ve always enjoyed art like this. Bold lines, excellent color, and almost mathematical in its precision. I really like the use of shading and glow - many pieces like this stick to flat colors, but the use of gradients really makes it special and gives it a lot of depth. The choice of framing and matting matches really well, though like any art at ImageKind, they can be customized by the buyer. Click the image to learn more about it or to perhaps purchase a print for yourself.
Prices for Dark Shell begin at $20.38, subject to change.

This week’s featured art is Metamorphosis III by Melissa Nucera
This is a fantastic piece, created in one of my favorite artistic styles. I really enjoy modern, abstract art like this. The tone is earthy and real to me, and the background texture is very well produced. It puts me in mind of some of the work of Hugh Syme, which I hope is taken as the compliment it’s intended as. Great, great stuff. The choice of framing and matting matches perfectly, though like any art at Imagekind, they can be customized by the buyer. Feel free to click the image to learn more about it or to perhaps purchase a print for yourself.
Prices for Metamorphosis III begin at $23.77, subject to change.
