I need to know when it was painted so I can complete an art project
"The answer is in footnote 28 – Tai Shan Schierenberg, Self- Portrait as a Man of Clay, (oil on canvas, 153 cm x 121 cm,
2008). at the end of text at http://uwspace.uwaterloo.ca/bitstream/10012/4394/1/Urbanski_Miranda.pdf
Are there any artists, anywhere, who use appropriation in their portraits?
Someone who is contemporary please? So someone in recent years. If possible who also uses really obscure facial expressions as well. Bonus point?…

I am doing a french project where it has to be visual and I decided to do a painting. Does anyone know a nice picture (when I mean nice I also mean easy) that I could paint that is done by a french painter? Please tell me the name of the portrait, the painter and if possible a website/link that I could click to veiw it.
Thanks in advance
ohh yeah I would appreciate it if it was an outside scene because I do those the best or flowers or water etc.
How about Monet? He’s definitely tied to the French art history and has done quite a bit of nature and flower painting. Take your pcik here:

There seems to be no set industry term for a one stop difference between main and fill. Some call it 2:1. some call it 3:1. Dean Collins called it 1:3. What term do you use and why?
I gave DJ M a thumbs down because it wasn’t an answer to the question, but an opinion.
Please see, I am asking about a ONE stop difference.
This is a question of semantics, but I have a reason for wanting an answer.
Ratio refers to the number of stops between the highlight side and the shadow side.
So on a sunny day, F16 @ 125. If you turn the model so you have a ratio from the small light source (the sun), one side of the face is highlit, one is in shadow. If you expose at f16@125th, the ratio in the image will be 3:1 – the shadow side is 2 stops below the highlit side.
A 2:1 could be achived be using a flash with a output of GN32 and syncing it off camera from 4 meters to the shadow side of the model – GN32/f16= 2meters – we want 1 stop under for a 2:1 so the flash is placed 4meters to the shadow side.
So one stop highlite to shadow face ratio shot is a 2:1 – , if its more stops different then its 3:1, 4:1 et cetera.
Ops just re read the question…….sorry
I was taught to say 3:1 not 1:3, why dont really know, most I have worked with in this area have called it 3:1 also……
I don’t think that one is part of a current coupon.
Actually in the Parenting Magazine there is a coupon for the $3.99 a sheet with a free sitting fee! I just used it this weekend! But a normal 10×13 is $9.99 plus the sitting fee $9.99! Good Luck hope your pictures turn out good!!!!
I’ve Googled and Yahoo’d and hit up site after site. I’d like to find a high quality artist who would be willing to do portraits for our game in exchange for advertising on our site.
Have you tried http://www.artwanted.com ? Amongst the crap there are some fantastic artist that do exactly what you are asking for for a living. Check em out. Is there anyway of seeing your work or getting in contact with you?
A high quality artist puts alot of time and work into their pieces you should consider offering something more than advertisment if you want an experienced artist. If they are high quality more than likely they already have the advertising area taken care of.
also try http://www.deviantart.com if you haven’t already.
James Kalm takes a brisk walk through a collection of recent portrait paintings by Francesco Clemente. Having embraced his position as the court portraitist to New York’s social elite, Clemente brings a sense of irony and a dash of satire to his elegantly naive depictions of the rich and famous.

Philippe Faraut, French / American portrait sculptor
Philippe Faraut is a figurative artist specializing in life- size portrait sculptures and monumental stone sculptures.
His media of choise are water- based clay and marble.
As an award winning stone sculptor specializing in representational art, Philippe feels that the renewed interest and willingness of artists to return to the study of the human form has the potential to bring back to our society an appreciation for traditional beauty.
Philip Faraut received his degree in woodcarving and the construction of French fine furniture from Germain Sommellier in Annency, France, his boyhood home.
An avid traveller, Phillipe’s destinations have allowed him the opportunity to study the cultures of many countries in Europe, Asia, Africa and the Caribbean, thus influencing his work in portraiture sculpting.
Afther establishing residence in the Chesapeake Bay area of Virginia, he developed an interest in modeling the head in clay.
Soon thereafter, he relocated his studio to New York State and began teaching sculpting classes.
Philippe has created numerous original works ranging from six- inch porcelain figurines to monuments in both stone and bronze.
He has exhibited his sculptures in various galleries and national competitions including several of the national sculpture society’s annual exhibitions shown in New York city.
In addition, he has studied forensic reconstruction with internationally recognized expert Betty Pat Gatliff.
For over fifteen years Philippe has traveled trhoughout the United States and Canada, teaching sculptors and aspiring sculptors how to render portraits in clay at private studios and institutions such as the Longvieuw museum of fine art in Texas.
Together with his wife Charisse, the couple has made Philippe’s techniques available to students in the form of a three- part video series, in addition to step- by- step instructional sculpting books.
