A Picasso or a Garfunkel
Back in New York in April, I was talking with artist Jorge Costa (Link removed) about his painting, and art in general. Jorge is the significant other of one of the UCONN grad students and we both had some time to kill while our ladies were presenting at the SIOP conference.
Jen and I are looking to find local (as in eastern PA) painters to buy some art off of for decorating the house and I wanted to see Jorge’s work and gleam any info I could off of him about where to look for The Good Stuff™. However, Jorge’s work is bit a more traditional than I was looking for and his subjects tend to reflect what Jen and I are surrounded with here in Atglen. Jorge, of course, knew this already and gave me the URL as a courtesy.
So if you know artists (or are one) who paint witty post-modern stuff, or city and coastal scenes, or slightly off-beat pieces, please let us know.
Till then, I urge you to check out Jorge’s site (link removed). Next time I see him, I’ll pass along any comments.
I am tempted to try my hand at the whole painting thing, but thats a disaster waiting to happen.
