Cave walls and stones being the favoured surface and paint used with hands representing basic forms from nature became the very first example of ‘illustration’ in India. Cave Paintings of Bhimbetka.

The afternoon of our third day with India brought us to the construction of our Wanderbooks. It was very quiet indeed as everyone pieced together the fruits of their labors over the course of the workshop. Here are the books displayed out on the grass. They are basically works in progress, because there are so many nooks and folds where little treasures and maybe new little books can be tucked away. Close-ups. Each and every one of these books was so special and unique, and I think every person walked away from India's workshop very happy and with a profound sense of accomplishment. These three days were truly one of the best workshops I have ever taken and I hope that India, in her wanderings, passes this way again.

“Life is too short to get a real job”, says Elia Colombo, also known as Gebe, and we are nothing but grateful for his unusual motto, as it got this Italian artist to where he is now. Gebe combines his passion for graphic design and philosophy to create thought-provoking artwork. The freelance designer, illustrator, and self-named ‘free spirit’ turns his views and observations into colorful conceptual illustrations that hold a mirror to modern society, pointing out its flaws with a fair share of humor and irony.

Catharine Lorillard Wolfe, 1876. Cabanel was a rather inconsistent portrait artist, stylistically and as to the actual quality of his work. Comparing the images here, one can easily see how his finished work differed greatly from painting to painting. Some have a gauzy, atmospheric quality while others have a very solid feeling, a strong sense of the figure in space. Some seem fully formed, descriptive of character, while others are doll-like or rather wooden; placed side by side, his work doesn't even always appear to be by the same hand. Many of his paintings are quite beautiful - expert, charming - but I feel that his lack of individuality and consistency keep him from the first rank of portrait artists. (Detail of above.)
