Hay Ledge

Hay Ledge by Andrew Wyeth

Andrew Wyeth, one of my idols, one of the greatest painters to have ever lived, passed away last week. I am really bummed out about this. There is something about his work that I can’t fully describe, something that I feel would be misrepresented if I tried to put it into words myself. I think even throwing out an adjective could color an opinion of his paintings, in a way that would be a huge disservice to him and to his body of work, which is nothing short of brilliant. I have seen Christina’s World in person, three times, and it is amazing. His use of tempera, which I consider to be one of the most difficult of painting media, was incredible, the strange and bleak atmosphere of each scene created by the insanely layered and detailed brushwork. I know my work may not reflect this, but I get a lot of inspiration, very directly, from Andrew Wyeth.

“Slight Breeze” looks incredible

At first glance, these looked like photos. However, after a closer look, they look like really good photos.

Dear Erik,

I seem to have found a small, 7”x9”
copy of Andrew Wyeth’s “Slight
Breeze”. Would you be so kind as
to tell me your source for the internet
posting? A book? A print? If this
is a copy, part of me can’t imagine
bothering when the training and control
is already there (although it is traditional
in European museums).

Thanks for any input.
Sincerely,
Pat Dugan

Dear Erik,

Seem to have a miniature copy of
“Slight Breeze”. Found it at a poster
place on the net. It’s been a pleasure
reviewing Wyeth’s work.

Keep making.

Thanks again.
Pat

I suffer from curly, frizzy, wild hair.. I have tried every product imaginable and this is the best product

out there.. It takes about a minute to heat and run it through each handful of hair once and your hair is perfect.. it will stay smooth and frizz free not to mention straight as a board until u wash your

hair next(even if u wait 3 days).. Please buy this product if u don’t believe me.

When I received this, the pump was broken which was unfortunate. However, I love this product for my extremely curly

hair. Don’t use too much or your hair looks greasy.

Bosch cooktop Apr 28

I love this product my very good friend who

is a hairstylist recommended this to me and I have loved it. It’s a great product. I have always had naturally curly hair and frizzy when I have dried to round brush it straight. With 1-2 pumps my hair is

silky smooth! The smell also is very nice! I always hated stinky hair products and this one I do not mind at all smelling. It has been a wonderful product for me so far. I’ve had it now for about 2 weeks

now.

I recenlty had a keratin hair treatment which smoothed and relaxed my hair to a fairly straight style. On days when I want a bit more body and bounce, I add this to my style products

and love the outcome. A great way to change my style with little or no fuss.

After having used a $20

straightener just to see if I’d actually use one if I had it, I finally stopped wanting to fry my hair, and decided to upgrade. I picked this one out because of the long titanium plates, and because I’d

heard an alarming amount of bad things about the Chi flat irons. I have been so happy with this straightener. My hair is super straight, smooth, and shiny. I’ve gotten so many compliments on my hair since

using it. It’s glides right through my thick, stubborn, wavy hair. One stroke usually gets it perfect, some extremely stubborn parts take two. It’s so easy and fast to use. I’ve got so much hair (a

hairdresser once called me “Mufasa”, if that’s any indication), and I’m done in about 15 minutes.

Designer dog collars Apr 29

This product is perfect for my curly hair. It leaves it looking beautiful w/o being

crunchy. I live in a very humid place and I’ve finally got my go-to product. It’s taken me years to find something this good!

Best fiberglass hoods Apr 29

I have to say this stuff dries and holds the curls in place for great curl

definition. I dont like that my curls were rather dry though. I’d say you must must must use the oil or some sort of moisturizer w/this product if you have thick (curly hair: type 3C) hair like mine.
