It is often said that Leonardo drew so well because he knew about things; it is truer to say that he knew about things because he drew so well.
- Kenneth Clark
Painting is stronger than I am. It can make me do whatever it wants.
- Pablo Picasso
 

 

Suggest a Site

If you would like to suggest a site ot topic for Lines and Colors, you can email me at charley@linesandcolors.com

It can be helpful to put either “lines” or “colors” (or “colours”) in the subject line of your email to help it get past the spam filters.

I appreciate your suggestions for sites I might be interested in writing about, but please try to be familiar with some of the sites I have written about, in terms of subject, style, level of professionalism and web site quality, before submitting a link.

As a general rule, I do not write about:
· Modernist, non-representational or “abstract” art
· Grafitti art
· Contests or give-aways
· Calls for entries
· New “portals”, community sites or places for artists to sell or display art
· Kickstarter projects
· News that does not involve a destination site (or sites) with lots of yummy art images for my readers to enjoy

Please bear in mind that a suggestion is just that, a suggestion. I can’t guarantee that a suggested site will become a topic for a post.

Also, please understand that I often can’t get back to you and tell you why I didn’t write an entry about the suggested site (or didn’t write one yet). My schedule is pretty difficult most of the time and I’m lucky if I can write my posts, let alone handle a lot of correspondence.

I also have to point out that I have a long (long) list of sites and suggestions to go through, and it’s getting longer not shorter, so even the suggestions I use may take a while to appear.

Now that I’ve said all of that, I hope I haven’t discouraged you from letting me know about a cool artist or web site you’ve seen, or your own work or site.

Thanks!
