Every time you follow, like, or comment, it helps more people discover our art. Like this original painting by Janet Dyer, called, “House in Snow”.
Social media can feel chaotic, but it’s still one of the most powerful tools we have to share real art with real people.
Thanks for being part of our stories!

Yesterday was Halloween, today is All Saints Day, and tomorrow is All Souls Day - the Day of the Dead. In honour of all three, here is Franz Sedlacek's 1933 painting 'Ghosts in the Tree', which I came across last autumn, in Vienna. It could as well be a commentary on the politics of our day, as of his.

The only known portraits of enslaved Mississippians:
'We don’t know if either of these people had the choice to sit for the portrait. We don’t know if they had the choice of what they were wearing when they were painted. They certainly weren’t allowed to own their own portrait.'
