Matisse Nude with Dachshund 2 Posters from Zazzle.com
Matisse Nude with Dachshund 2 Posters Fig Street Studio
That pesky Dachshund is showing up in a lot of my silly art. here he is paying homage to a Matisse Nude. The original is unique as it is a painting of things on a table but I made it real life size and not a small statue of a nude sitting on a table with a vase. I also have this composition with a Blue Catfish in a bowl, both silly things done to pay homage to a favorite artist, H. Matisse.

Buy American Art, Not Cheap Foreign Prints
While Christmas shopping this year, I went into several places that sell art, frames, prints, and art supplies. I spoke to several people there who were buying some art. They said the prices were good and they could use the art to decorate their home. I asked if they considered buying from an artist and they all said the prices would be too high?? I gave them a short lecture about buying American art from Americans and informed them that my art, made, painted, done all in America by a local guy, me went from $10 and up with framed prints at $50 and up. I also have canvas prints from $150 and up. They were surprised. I think the big stores just brain wash people into thinking the art they sell is cheap when most local artists have very reasonable prices. I urge each of you reading this to buy local. Buy American art, buy here in the USA and avoid those cheap prints done in China. See my art at the below links and help a local artist in America.

"The last thing practical, no-nonsense 36-year-old New Orleans schoolteacher Nettie Dunbar expects when she gives fourth-grader Anthony detention is having the business end of a gun jammed into her face. But that’s just one surprise that awaits Nettie when she discovers he’d been living on his own in the small shotgun unaware that his mama was lying dead in the shed out back." At Amazon.com
"In Big Muddy River of Stars, her second full-length collection of poems, Alison Pelegrin continues her celebration of the quirks and characters of south Louisiana, tempered now by the devastations of hurricane Katrina and its aftermath. These sassy poems come on like a carnival parade, with boisterous shout-outs to sleepy rivers and Big Shot soda, crawfish and trailer trash and those "git-r-dones" who rebuild homes ravaged by hurricane and high water. " At Amazon.com
