San Pedro was surrounded by all types of music and live stage shows, being raised in Las Vegas. The artist’s father was friends with Siegfried and Roy, which led to Nick having many opportunities to share his works with them throughout his adolescence. Roy was especially encouraging, and his acknowledgment of San Pedro’s talent was all the artist needed to believe that his artwork was truly magical.

    San Pedro’s love for music and performance led to the creation of many works of art that would eventually gain attention from musicians coming to perform in the entertainment capitol of the world.

    Paint Like Picasso: Oil Paintings by Paul Cumes

    Posted by admin on December 6th, 2009 and filed under oil paintings | 25 Comments »

    http://www.paulcumes.com

    April 2007 Painting Video edition #1. Oil painting on canvas. I love this period of Picasso’s work and they are really fun to copy. Picasso himself loved to copy. For example, he copied a Cezanne still life for Gertrude Stein. These Picasso copies are not meant to be exact and take about an hour each to do. While you’re here, check out some of my other art videos and for even more excitement visit my website link above.

    Cy Twombly “Blooming” at GAGOSIAN GALLERY

    Posted by admin on October 16th, 2009 and filed under artists gallery | 25 Comments »

    James Kalm once again goes undercover to bring viewers unauthorized video of Cy Twombly’s latest exhibition of paintings, “Blooming: A Scattering of Blossoms and Other Things”. With this collection of recent paintings Twombly has encouraged his most lyrical expressions. With a poetic sense influenced by the elegant simplicity of haiku, these pieces have a reduced color spectrum and a basic repeated form manifest as bursts of blooming blossoms. Despite having lived in Europe for the last fifty years, Twombly still holds a major place in postwar American painting. These works bare witness to his continuing vigor as a major influence among young artists.
