I am fond of this Dominican painter who hails out of Philly these days. His name is Rigo Peralta.
I like the rich saturated colors and the way he weaves a sort of Diego Rivera industrialization style with an ancient mysticism motif.

The canary didn't die because this mine is dangerous, it died because it's lazy and wasn't raised with a proper work ethic.

i like these , strong and stimulating, strikes me like good graffiti.
i once spent a year of nights and weekends sneeking around industrial melbourne capturing all the street art in crazy dangerous places - should get it up somewhere for other people one day.. sigh.. so much todo.

Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently what kills you.

, contemporary Canadian.
"Daughter of the Moon"
This illustrates a Plains Indian legend. A young woman turned away all suitors so that she could stay in her parents tepee and care for them. She looked after them into their old age. First her mother and then her father eventually died. He was taken to be the spirit of the moon. The daughter looked at her situation. She had discouraged relations with other members of the tribe for so long that now she found herself alone. She begged the spirits to take her up to the sky too. They obliged and she was made the Evening Star and now is forever close to the moon.
"Nat-ah-ki"
The Coldmaker sends the chilly winds of snow down from the Rocky Mountains sweeping across the plains. Colors become muted and blankets are pulled tight to ward off the cold.

Never criticize anyone until you've walked several kilometres in their shoes.
Because
1. You're now several kilometres away; and
2. You've got their shoes.

My daughter - who is studying art - has drawn my attention to a painter I had so far ignored, Egon Schiele (June 12, 1890 – October 31, 1918), from Austria:

Thank you, Azrael. Few people realize that there are quite a few very interesting Portuguese painters (Vieira da Silva, Paula Rego, Almada Negreiros, Mário Botas, etc.). Here goes some of Mário Botas work:
