michali Posted December 7, 2009 Share #2 Posted December 7, 2009 Nice series Stuart. I really like the first one for perspective, composition, lighting and its shadow. It looks as if it is gliding through the museum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

offshore Posted December 7, 2009 Share #5 Posted December 7, 2009 Very nice images. Do you know who made it and what it is made of? Here's a real one outside The Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History. It was taken on film and not with a Leica so the highlights are blown out.

stuny Posted December 14, 2009 Author Share #14 Posted December 14, 2009 Rob - His fingers are quite stumpy, and not very dexterous. Each time I handed him an ice cream cone he dropped it before getting it anywhere near his mouth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
allamande Posted December 14, 2009 Share #15 Posted December 14, 2009 There is a piece today in the Arts section about this retrospective. I remember seeing his work in LA some years back. Hope you have more images. Ece Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rob_x2004 Posted December 15, 2009 Share #19 Posted December 15, 2009 Parantly by the starving artist:rolleyes:. Getting in touch with his realist side or something. All too deep for me. Bet that's what the whale would rather said than be stranded in the dark old days too. Maybe he was more dextrous than you thought and he was trying his luck on the hard.

roguewave Posted December 15, 2009 Share #20 Posted December 15, 2009 Stu, nice series that gives a true to life sense of this. I must confess that the MOMA cutorial staff have gone bats. To know that just 1 year ago, Monet's water lilies graced this space & since it's it's removal to a different exhibition space, there's been nothing of real interest. I'm lost as to how the trustees endorse this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
