I'm really drawn to those sites that are either visual or invoke visual responses.<BR/><BR/>A photojournalist from southern Appalachia: http://blueridgeblog.blogs.com<BR/><BR/>Daily georgous pics from: http://www.cornwall.cam.co.uk<BR/><BR/>The Blog of Henry David Thoreau, ...man, that guy could write:<BR/>http://blogthoreau.blogspot.com<BR/><BR/>You probably already know this person, but I really like to read it for the details of living in an exotic place as much as I like it when she posts pics:<BR/>Postcards from Cairo<BR/>http://jennybowker.blogspot.com<BR/><BR/>Lastly, there is a watercolorist and visual journal keeper that I enjoy: The Creative Journey<BR/>http://www.karensblog.com <BR/><BR/>Linda in AAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8477480.post-1152260669391474512006-07-07T18:24:00.000+10:002006-07-07T18:24:00.000+10:00Omega visits similar visual artists blogs as me al...Omega visits similar visual artists blogs as me although I have dropped off reading Keri Smith recently.<BR/><BR/>I have been trying to find good Australian visual arts bloggers, but have had trouble locating many :-( One I have in my blog roll is Linden Langdon is a Tasmanian Printmaker<BR/>http://www.blog.lindenlangdon.com/ From Linden's blog you can link through to some other blogs which may be interesting, nothing there I'm reading regularly though.<BR/><BR/>I like Sarsaparilla which focuses more on literature and popular culture:<BR/>http://sarsaparillablog.net/<BR/><BR/>Anna Conti is also very good and has a good blog roll I use every day: http://web.mac.com/bigcrow/iWeb<BR/><BR/>Cheerio<BR/>ClaireClairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03293118986621010393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8477480.post-1152259747973025412006-07-07T18:09:00.000+10:002006-07-07T18:09:00.000+10:00Visual art does tend to dominate the blogs I look ...Visual art does tend to dominate the blogs I look at regularly, but two literary ones I visit are:<BR/><BR/>Wordplay Poetry Blog<BR/>http://artvilla.com/wordplay/<BR/><BR/>and Jeanette Winterson's column<BR/>http://www.jeanettewinterson.com/column.asp<BR/><BR/>Illustrator Keri Smith has a thought-provoking blog, and at present has a lovely little film made by her and her husband for visitors to see:<BR/>http://www.kerismith.com/blog/<BR/><BR/>Lisa Hunter's Intrepid Art Collector Blog has a wide range of interesting posts on the art world.<BR/>http://howtobuyart.blogspot.com/<BR/><BR/>There are lots of other artists' blogs I visit - too many really, but the one which generally cheers me the most is by Tracy Helgeson who talks about making, promoting, and selling her paintings as well as giving concert reports, and updates on her children, garden and chickens:<BR/>http://worksbytracy.blogspot.com/Olga Norrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10554469124546960971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8477480.post-1152259552954667212006-07-07T18:05:00.000+10:002006-07-07T18:05:00.000+10:00Hi FelicityThank you so much for sharing these- I ...Hi Felicity<BR/><BR/>Thank you so much for sharing these- I love them all but esepcially love your Swedish find!<BR/><BR/>I do check Illustration Friday from time to time- but I just wondered what people themselves really felt inspired by.<BR/><BR/>I am just agog by the blogosphere!<BR/>DijanneDijanne Cevaalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08773178881841236519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8477480.post-1152257342037086242006-07-07T17:29:00.000+10:002006-07-07T17:29:00.000+10:00Firstly, it's really interesting to see your sketc...Firstly, it's really interesting to see your sketchbooks and to read your comment about finding it hard to use colour. If you can analyse that and find a solution, I'd love to know. I can use colour quite freely in my quilts but not in my drawings - some barrier there.<BR/><BR/>Five blogs that inspire? Had to think as that is different from just liking to look. Here are mine (all illustrators).<BR/><BR/>The newest discovery. A pen artist from Sweden whose mastery, detail, quirkiness and composition I admire.<BR/> http://mattiasa.blogspot.com/<BR/><BR/>Simplicity and fabulous colours - <BR/>http://blogdelanine.blogspot.com/<BR/><BR/>Illustrations that make me wonder how I can tranlate into quilting techniques -<BR/>http://blogdelanine.blogspot.com/<BR/><BR/>Strength of line and great compositions - <BR/>http://www.processrecess.com/<BR/><BR/>Fabulous use of colour - <BR/>http://www.laurelines.typepad.com/<BR/><BR/>I hope you get a few answers to this Dijanne! Oh, BTW there is a wealth of great illustrated blogs on Illustration Friday but it takes an age to plough through!<BR/>http://www.illustrationfriday.com/Felicity Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11145205761346733464noreply@blogger.com
