Featured Blog: 'Painting Fanatics Locked in an Attic'

Wednesday September 24, 2008
Subtitled "Ramon and Christie's crazy adventures in painting, drawing and everything in between". What caught my eye initially was the URL - "highonturpentine" - it reminded me of my art school days, when I'm fairly certain I always smelled of mineral turps and printing ink. The 'Painting Fanatics Locked in an Attic' blog turned out to be well worth the click - in fact I don't think I've ever seen such a lot of really good painting and drawing on one blog. Aspiring art student Christie, and Animation student Ramon draw and paint prolifically, and there's some fantastic work on the blog - really solid drawings, three dimensional and confident. It's a proper artist's blog - more images than text! There's some ink sketches that are just bliss. I've bookmarked it to read at my leisure, when I can go back to the beginning and follow their progress.
