It started as a little game on facebook. My friend had placed a picture of an artist on her page and by liking it you were then given an artist to look up and post their work on your page. The idea was to fill up facebook with art instead of selfies and food pictures. I decided to join in and to my delight as I found myself looking for artists to assign those friends of mine that joined in, I found such amazing artists and such beautiful art. I found this artist, Vicente Romero Redondo. They are lovely paintings aren't they? They make you want to step right in to his work. So step right in my friends and I think you too will discover what Twyla Tharp said best.....

German postcard by Ross Verlag, no. 5272/1, 1930-1931. Photo: Lotte Jacobi. German actress Valerie Boothby (1906-1982) was a popular star of the Weimar cinema in the late 1920s and early 1930s. Valerie Boothby entered the film business in 1925 during the heydays of the German silent cinema. Her film debut was Der krasse Fuchs (1925, Conrad Wiene). In the next years she made many other silent films and her popularity increased. Among her films were Die Frau mit dem Weltrekord (1927, Erich Waschneck), Das letzte Souper (1928, Mario Bonnard), Angst - Die schwache Stunde einer Frau (1928, Hans Steinhoff) in which she co-starred with Gustav Fröhlich, Der Monte Christo von Prag (1929, Hans Otto), Frauen am Abgrund (1929, Georg Jacoby) and Mädchen am Kreuz (1929, Jacob & Luise Fleck). During the early sound period Valerie – or Valery - Boothby made her last films, including In einer kleinen Konditorei (1930, Robert Wohlmuth), Er oder ich (1930, Harry Piel) and Der Herr Finanzdirektor (1931, Fritz Friedmann-Frederich).

An elegantly placed indoor statue adds style and brings art into lifelike dimension for your interiors whether it is a gallery wall, formal hallway or table. Scaled, classic indoor statues that replicate Michelangelo's David or even the bust of William Shakespeare arrests the eye and captures the heart. Some will have smooth finishes, others have rough unfinished edges and chisel work like a Rodin piece. And they can be formed from a variety of materials, including marble, bronze, clay, concrete and fiberglass.

Busts can become the perfect ornamentation to adorn the tops of so many surfaces such as pedestals, columns tabletops, niches, or grand pianos. The list is endless.
