Painting and Photography

Blue Jay Bathing by Charley Harper, famous American Modernist
from Cincinnati (born and raised in West Virginia.)
Charley Harper once remarked, "...herein lies the lure of painting; in a world of chaos, the picture is one small rectangle in which the artist can create an ordered universe."  

I think this is also one of the lures of photography, and why I enjoy my brother's photos so much. Humboldt in Digital
Stellars Jay by Dave, famous Humboldt in Digital photographer
In art and photography one's attention is drawn to something that might otherwise have remained unseen.
