At HSMC, we have a collection of portraits. While researching the history of these portraits, we discovered three of them were painted by renowned artist, Jacob Eichholtz (1776 – 1842). Starting as a sign painter and copper smith, Eichholtz did not begin painting portraits until 1805. After meeting Thomas Sully in Lancaster, PA in 1808, Eichholtz turned his attention to improving his technique. By 1815 he sold his local business to devote the rest of his life to painting. To learn more about Eichholtz’s history, please visit The National Gallery of Art .
Portrait of Samuel Markley, 1812
Since Eichholtz is a well-known Pennsylvanian artist, we wanted to learn more about the subjects of these three portraits. The portraits depict three men from the Markley family: Samuel, John, and Philip Markley (1789-1834). Based on the design, technique, and material used to create the portraits, we believe the portraits were created at different times in Eichholtz’s career. With dark colors painted onto a wooden panel, the portrait of Samuel Markley demonstrates Eichholtz’s early work. Based on the few records we have on this portrait, we believe it was completed around 1812.
Portrait of John Markley
Although we do not know much about Samuel Markley, our research revealed more about John and Philip’s service to Montgomery County. John Markley of Norristown was a Montgomery County sheriff in the late eighteenth century. John was also a prominent member of the Republican Party. Like his father John, Philip Markley pursued a career in politics. From 1819 to 1823, Philip became a State Senator for the seventh district of PA. Our records indicate that Philip’s portrait was completed in 1824, but there is no date given for John’s portrait. Given the improved detail in the portraits, when compared to Samuel’s, it seems likely that John’s portrait was likely finished a few years prior to Philip's.

i am adding some home improvements in order to join in the fun of link parties!
the fireplace before & after...
when we moved in, i was thrilled to have a fireplace. but less than thrilled with the orangey-brown tones of the jagged rocks. my original plan was to build a wood facade over the rock, but i needed to hire someone to do that and they are kind of funny about expecting to be paid. so i decided to paint the rocks in the gray tones i would've picked. everyone thought i was crazy. now they think i'm a genius! i'm proud to say i did this project without the help of any men! (my sister may have painted 10-20 rocks)
don't you love the pea soup green walls!
goodbye brass doors and vents! i painted them with a black high heat spray paint. priming the stones was
h o r r i b l e!
in fact it was so bad that i only did about 2/3rds.
once all the rocks were painted, i painted the mantle an off white. then i sanded around all the edges and over some of the wood grain. next i applied stain over the paint and wiped it off. i ended up using a couple different colors of stain to get the right look.


I got a little crafty with this room, creating wall hangings for above the bed, painting some accents for around the room, and making the throw pillow on the bed.
So here it was before:
And now after:
I took a couple clear glass vases I had and painted them teal blue to match the room. We poured the paint into the vases and then swirled them around and let them drip upside down until they were completely dry.
The previous owners left this owl on the back deck but he was brown and normal looking. I spray painted it white and gave him some teal eyes. He watches me while I sleep! I maybe going a little crazy from all the paint!
We stained them black and added new brushed nickel nobs to the dresser. It's like a brand new set! And to think we lived with them this way for 7 years, when it only took about 50 bucks and a few hours of our weekend to make them look 1000 times better! :)
So there you have it. Next up...putting the finishing touches on our living room!

When building your home, you can actually have paint placed on the outside wall which can prevent water or moisture from seeping through the walls. This can be a very important function especially for homes that are equipped with basements. The problem with basements is that since they are lower than the rest of the house, the water seeping through the walls would end up there. It would be very easy for you to end up with a flooded basement.
It’s not only the basement that could have problems with water going through the walls. That can also be a major problem when there are heavy rains and the water starts going through the wall. It can be a problem with your living room or your bedroom.
Another benefit of waterproof paint is that it makes it a lot easier to clean the walls. That’s because you can start scrubbing it all that you want and there wouldn’t be any problems. Here are some of the factors that you need to consider when buying waterproof paint for your house:
- How big is the surface that you need to paint? If you will be painting a large area, then better to buy as much paint as you can, so you don’t get interrupted when doing the painting. Even if you calculate for the exact amount of paint needed, you would still buy either too much or too little paint. It would be better for you to buy more than what you need.
- While there are many brands offering waterproof paints, it is still safe to go with the most well-known ones. That way, you can have some assurance that the paint that you are buying is the right kind.
- In which room will you be using the paint? In rooms where there will be heavy penetration of water or moisture, you need to pick heavy duty paints that can handle it. If you would be using it inside the house then you can use a slightly weaker type of paint, especially if you have used waterproof paint on the exterior.
- An expensive paint does not really guarantee high quality. You should study the need that you have and then base your decision from that.
These are just some of the qualities that you would need to pick when it comes to choosing the right waterproof paint for your home.


VELASQUEZ’S SYSTEM OF REFLEXIVE PRESENTATIONS
Velasquez’s System of Reflexive Presentations
Diego Velazquez is famously known for his reflexive paintings. Many of his paintings depicted the protagonist of each particular picture as the main object. Some of his greatest reflexive paintings include the Las Meninas, which is a depiction of the Spanish palace and Las Hilanderas or The Spinners. His paintings were baroque and portrait. Velazquez’s paintings were mythological compositions that portrayed complex and sometimes hidden meanings. His paintings, particularly Las Meninas were said to look out into the audience in the same way the audience looked into them. His reflexive paintings portrayed the paradox between the natural and the artistic. His reflexive paintings contained symbols of the materials he used in his paintings. Velazquez’s reflexive paintings influenced the king to grant him stay at the palace where he further developed and established his reflexive style. The stay at the royal Spanish palace in turn had a considerable influence on his painting style. His reflexive style is also said to have inspired the works of other renowned painters such as Picasso.
Velazquez was born in Seville in1599 and learnt his painting from Francisco Pacheco one of the best painters in Seville during his time. His father was a Portuguese lawyer. Velazquez married when he was 19 years old and moved to Paris. His mastery of artistic painting would later surpass that of Pacheco. Pacheco earned a place at the royal court when he painted the portrait of King Philip IV. He was 24 years old when he painted this portrait. The king was impressed with his artistry that he made a painter at the royal court. The king trusted his painting so much that he only allowed Velazquez to make portraits of him. While at the court, Velazquez was granted access to the collection of famous royal paintings. During his time at the royal palace learnt the styles of famous Italian painters such as Titian. Velazquez also visited Italy while he was at the royal courthouse. During his visits, he copied the styles of great Italian painters. His contact with the Paintings of Jusepe de Ribera and Carravagio informed his painting style in which he harmonized the use black and gray colors. From Italy Velazquez carried the paintings of artists such as Titian and Tintoretto to be displayed in the king’s royal gallery. The royal household’s trust in him grew considerably, and he rose in rank. He was accorded with the responsibility to make paintings of members of the royal household. While in the courthouse, Velazquez was promoted and made officer in charge of the courthouse. Velazquez held this position until his demise on August 6 1660. In addition to other paintings, he also made paintings of the courthouse. Among his famous paintings, include the paintings on King Philip IV of Spain and Las Meninas. Other paintings included The Spinners, Pope Innocent X, the Infanta Maria Theresa and Christ at Emmaus. The palace presented a change in this style of painting. His reflective style is usually compared to that of Italian artist Titian whose works Velazquez encountered at the royal Spanish palace. Velazquez favored a more natural style in his paintings. Velazquez painting style later influenced many great painters. Some of his proteges include Bartolome Murillo, Pablo Picasso, Camille Corot, and Edouard Manet among others. Pablo Picasso and Francis Bacon have acknowledged Velazquez’s artistry by reworking some of his famous paintings.
Velazquez stay at the king’s courthouse can be credited to have influenced his self-fashioning. From his first painting of Philip IV the Spanish king, Velazquez developed a different painting technique from those he had already done. The first portraits that he painted in the royal courthouse followed the traditional techniques used for royal portraits. However, his later paintings took a different unique style. The paintings not only tried to depict the natural self of his subjects but also conveyed a reflection on their inner personalities. This new style was a creation of his great intellectual ability to depict the psychological factors of his subjects on canvas. This new technique enabled the audience to get a more detailed description of the subject from a deeper analysis of the painting. One example of such artistic masterpiece is the portrait of Philip IV that was reworked by Velazquez. In this photo, he manages to reveal minute detail that enables the audience to understand the intrigues of the painting process. Velazquez therefore attains a mastery of another niche, which he could only have mastered while in the royal courthouse. Some critics say that this artistic revelation is inspired by the works of the Italian artist Titian. Velazquez was exposed to Titian’s unique style at the royal gallery and he is said to have taken profound interest in the artist’s style of painting.
Velazquez’s role as the curator at the king’s royal courthouse greatly influenced his style. The conduct at the courthouse required that the paintings be done in a rigid manner with no depictions of emotions or personality. However, his painting of Innocent X shows that out of the limits of the royal courthouse he had the freedom to portray the inner self. The courthouse provided a great environment for carrying out his reflexive painting. His uninhibited access to the royal gallery also enabled him to study the works of other contemporary artists before his time. The royal courthouse was a source of immense knowledge to him and presented the perfect setting to practice his new style. The stay at the king’s court slightly changed his style of painting. A comparison of his earlier paintings such as The Immaculate Conception and Christ in the House of Martha and Mary and his later paintings in the Royal house reveal a slight change in painting techniques. In the Immaculate Conception, Velazquez focuses on the supernatural and tries to express his understanding of the Holy Book. In Christ in the House of Martha and Mary, Velazquez still expresses his spiritual beliefs in the painting although he applies a blend of the modern and the ancient in this picture. This latter painting contains a slight semblance to his paintings at the royal courthouse but lacks in the reflexivity that is characteristic of his paintings. Las Meninas on the other hand is a perfect example of the style he adopted while at the courthouse. In his new reflective style as can be seen in Las Meninas, Velazquez style concentrates on representing natural events. In fact, most of the figures in this painting can be identified. According to Natalia Rivera, only one of the characters in Las Meninas has not been identified. In this acquired style, Velazquez demonstrates irony, ambiguity and literary symbolism in paintings that seem natural and concise to the natural eye. This kind of ambiguity and literary symbolism can be traced through Velazquez’s later works at the court. It is important to note that this ambiguity and literary symbolism are only evident in the works he painted after living in the royal courthouse. In his previous works such as Christ at the house of Martha and Mary and The Immaculate Conception, this ambiguity and symbolism is lacking.
Another of Velazquez’s painting that signifies his unique reflexive style is The Spinners, which is known as Las Hilanderas or The Fable of Arachne. The Spinners was not painted for the king but for a private individual. In this painting, Velazquez captures the mythological challenge between the Greek goddess Athena and a woman Arachne. Visually, it is difficult to comprehend how a physically small portrait like the Spinners would contain too much information. In this portrait, Velazquez depicts five women working on their spins. All these women are at work. One of them can be seen reaching f or wool in the floor, another is spinning the machine, and a third holds the wool for the spinner. The fourth woman rolls the wool into a ball. Another woman can be seen leaving behind the curtain with a round of finished wool. According to Alpers, this painting resembled the works of Titian. She says that Velazquez is more interested in a group of working women and illustrates many details of the room in which the women are gathered. Farther into the painting, one cannot fail to notice the challenge between Minerva (Athena) and Arachne and somewhere beside them, one can make out Europa and the bull. “Europa and the Bull” was painted by Titian. Watching the contest are three women.
One striking characteristic of Velazquez’s new style is the depiction of one woman who looks out as though acknowledging the fact that she knows she is being painted. This style can also be seen in Las Meninas where the little Infanta, and the king and queen in the mirror look out into the audience fixing their attention on something. In this painting, Velazquez portrays a lot of movement. The wheel of the spinner is rotating and the women’s limbs are all moving. In this painting unlike his other paintings, it is difficult to figure out the inner expressions of the characters. The spinners contains some sort of mystery within it, within the painting, he portrays women spinning yarn and adds finished tapestry. He deliberately ignores the weaving process. In normal Spanish society, the weaving was done by men so tapestries would not be found where the spinning was being done. Using this impression Velazquez tries to compare Arachne’s status withy that of her opponent (Athena). In reality, Velazquez tries to elevate the status of the artist and his art. In the painting, Athena and the woven tapestry represent the artist and the art respectively. This style possesses a striking semblance to many of his post-courthouse portraits. This style is however not present in the previous portraits discussed above. This style distinction therefore separates the two eras. Velazquez’s job as the curator was thus a major influence on his painting style.
Many artists have taken after Velazquez’s style. One outstanding artist among them is Picasso. Picasso did major re works on the paintings of other great painters. His paintings never diverged from the styles established by major artists. He had a remarkable prowess in the art of reworking the paintings of other painters. In fact, Picasso not only repainted pieces of art but also reinvented them in a new and unique way. It is important to note that even Velazquez did reworks of major paintings at the royal gallery. These paintings included that of Philip IV and like Picasso, his rework revealed more details to the audience than could have been identified in the original work. Picasso made variations to some of Velazquez’s works some of which were almost three hundred years old. Picasso was an established and renowned artist and he therefore wanted to redo Velazquez’s work in a unique style in order to create a distinction between his work and the original works. Picasso went on to repaint Las Meninas, which was released on August 17 1957.
This new painting of Velazquez’s “Maids of Honor” was horizontally oriented unlike the original. The painting is also done in a gray palette giving it some kind of darkness. This was the characteristic Picasso way of painting. These were the only differences that Picasso had introduced in the painting. As Elenkrantz says the paintings, “Lineage is clearly with Velazquez”. The rework of Las Meninas contains some similarities to the original work. First, it retains the majesty through which Velazquez depicted Infanta and her maids. He also depicts Infanta with a similar white dress like the one in the original portrait. The king and queen in the mirror are also intact in this rework. However, the king and queen’s expression in this version of the Las Meninas are portrayed in a comical way. The maids in this painting only exist in the form of dark silhouettes and some items have shifted position. In this painting, Picasso alters the painter on the left side in such a way that he exists only as an imaginative figure. The painter is depicted as a blurry image. Picasso also alters the visibility of the queen’s chamberlain, Jose Nieto. He also brings him slightly above Infanta this brings the audience attention to Nieto because he becomes the most conspicuous object in the painting. Picasso, in characteristic Velazquez fashion draws the audience into critical thinking he inspires the audience to brainstorm on the position he gives Nieto. By painting the Las Meninas in his own unique style, Picasso avoids a confrontation with the original picture and brings a distinction that is richer in flavor and detail just like Velazquez did to the portrait of Philip IV.
One example of modern art is the David Thomas portrait, Amid our Narrative. This painting is Enamel on photograph on dibond portrait. It was painted in November 2006. It is a portrayal of four characters, two on either side of the painting. The two sides are separated by a table. The four characters are separated by a rectangular shape of ambiguous black space in the middle. Both sides of the portrait contain some similarities. On either side of the table is a woman seated concentrating on the dark bar of space. On each side, also there is a figure standing. The two figures are probably men going by the kind of clothing they are wearing. Thomas introduces another black space at the bottom of the right side of the portrait. The characters in Thomas’s portrait look as if they have their attention on the same thing. The two dark colored spaces seem to be hiding something from the audience’s view.
This is a reflexive representation of a house with four people. Thomas’ however puts two doors on either side of the portrait. The audience cannot distinguish whether the portrait represents one house or two houses. The dark spaces created by Thomas are supposed to attract the imagination of the audience. The dark spaces represent some act of spectatorship by the characters. Their concentration is captured by an ambiguous space that is hidden from the audience. The presence of two doors and an empty space in between may be taken to show some disconnect between the two sets of people. Some emptiness separates the two couples. The couple on the right side of the painting looks older while the other set looks younger. Perhaps Thomas might be trying to show disconnect or the generational gap that exists among people of different ages. This is a kind of reflexive art represented by modern artists. Thomas follows the reflexive example of Velazquez in his portrait by incorporating ambiguity in the midst of a natural setting.

Lucknow: Google came out with a doodle to celebrate the 200th birthday of French artist Rosa Bonheur on Wednesday, March 16, after Rosa’s successful career inspired future generations of women in the arts. The graphic features an animated sculpture of Rosa Bonheur depicting a flock of sheep on canvas.
Bonheur grew gradually with her father’s encouragement and guidance. A landscape and portrait painter, Bonheur became one of the most important female painters of the 19th century. Her stunningly realistic paintings of horses, lions and other animals garnered her internal acclaim during her lifetime.
Rosa Bonheur, original name Marie-Rosalie Bonheur was born on March 16, 1822 in Bordeaux, France. Her early artistic education was facilitated by her father, a minor landscape painter. Although Bonhur’s aspirations for a career in art were unconventional for women of the time, she closely followed the development of artistic traditions by spending years of careful study and drawing sketches before immortalizing them on canvas, bio with today’s Doodle he said.
— Google Doodles EN (@Doodle123_EN) March 15, 2022
Bonheur’s reputation as an animal painter and sculptor grew into the 1840s, with many of her works exhibited at the prestigious Paris Salon from 1841 to 1853. She achieved early success in 1849 with her art ‘Ploughing in the Nivernais.’ Her most famous work of art is ‘The Horse Fair.’ Bonheur was awarded the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honor. This was the first time the award was bestowed on a female artist.
In 1853, Bonheur garnered international acclaim with her painting “The Horse Fair,” which depicted the horse market held in Paris. As her most well-known work, this painting remains on exhibit in New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art.
To honor this celebrated painting, the French Empress Eugénie awarded Bonheur the Legion of Honor—one of the nation’s most prestigious awards, in 1865.

This is how the the room started:
Painting the trim:
It's amazing what a couple gallons of paint and some time can get you.
We still need to do a little bit of touch up before it's officially finished, andwe still need to put down some quarter-round by the baseboard to cover some unevenness of the wood planks in the floor. After that, we're done with this room!

Instructor: Ann McMillan
Soft Pastels are a dreamy medium, and lovely for people just getting started learning to paint. Ann will bring 80 stick kits and get you started on a new addiction. Pastels are a gorgeous way to learn color harmony and immediacy in painting. Pastels are instantly rewarding for new painters! But wait, you ask, “Aren’t pastels a drawing material?” They can be, but not the way I use and teach them. For me, pastels are pre-mixed brush loads of vibrant paint. Most beginning painting students struggle with mixing clean colors. Soft Pastels bypass that struggle and get you right into the process.
Instructor: Ann McMillan: Ann’s artistic career has been an adventure in many styles of painting. She began with science and botanical illustration, followed by an exploration of portraiture and figure painting, and then pursued plein air landscape painting. Ann’s teaching focuses on skill-building in drawing and painting. Ann teaches at the Palo Alto Art Center.

In 2021 we embarked on The Journey, a walk through the entire Bible in one year. It was a time of rich learning and deep connection with the Lord.
During The Journey, we had an artist paint a section of a mural every week, using image and color to communicate what the Lord is teaching us throughout the Scriptures.
Knowing that the mural was impactful, we wanted to provide different items to remember the season of The Journey.

Italy, in-progress. This painting hangs unfinished, but I'll enjoy it on the wall until I'm ready to complete it.
Rather than hiding this in my studio unfinished, I hung it on the wall until it is time to start on it again. I started this piece after returning from northern Italy and Rome. Each section is inspired by photos I took in there: art, mosaics, wood beams, ceiling paintings, etc.
I originally wanted to make two painted wood panels as cabinet doors, and there were larger sections on the bottom of each panel. I ended up taking off the bottom portions, attaching the panels to a larger one, and framing it.
Scroll below for in process photos and see some of the layers.

A note from the artist.
I’ve drawn a lot of inspiration from working in London and this exhibition represents a collection of my paintings based on my working life. Commuting and working in an office, going to see clients, travelling on the tube – all these aspects of my life have provided me with great subject matter for paintings. I rely on my visual memory when I paint so all of my work is really a loose representation of what I see. The other dimension to my painting is that I often try and find a humorous theme or narrative to the image. The title is a very important element in conveying this and I enjoy trying to work out the wording to maximise the overall effect of the painting.
I am self-taught and have developed my painting style over the last twenty-five years or so. I always work in acrylic and try and paint every day if I can. In terms of the actual painting – colour harmonisation is probably the key thing I strive for in every work. When I first started painting seriously I would keep a sheet and my paints behind the settee and as soon as the kids had gone to bed, get all my gear out and paint lying on the living room floor. With the onset of middle age and a dodgy back, I have moved off the floor and now use an easel.
I have exhibited in a number of galleries over the years. My paintings have been used for greeting cards, a postcard at the Royal Academy, an album cover, concert poster, a cover for a law book, a shop window display for a major high street retailer in the West End and Convent Garden and also for designs on a number of products of a major high street retailer.

Botanical illustration tips on painting white flowers
Painting White flowers: A problem needing a solution
I was painting a snowdrop the other day, and wrestling, as always, with the best way to paint the petals of white flowers. There are as many different approaches to this troublesome aspect of botanical illustration as there are scientific illustrators; so I thought it’d be worth considering.
Place a leaf behind the white flower
A handy trick in the first instance, especially if the flower you’re painting is startling white, is to use the leaves as a background. This can set the white off really dramatically, and means you can leave the white more or less untouched. You do have to be a little careful not to make the composition look too awkward by twisting the leaves around, but it can be really useful.
Add a pale background
Another trick also involves using backgrounds, but in this case a background wash. All the images below are from my sketchbook studies rather than from finished paintings. I tend to favour a background mix of Windsor blue, a purple, and a touch of brown. Apply it to the edge of the petals, then add water to bleed it outwards. You can use whatever colour background wash you’d like for this approach, just be sure to keep it gentle and to fade it outwards.
Colour on the white petals
Sometimes, though, you can’t evade the issue, and have to paint the white petals against a white background. A very light pencil can give a clear, neutral enclosing line to give the petals their shape. When using colour, the trick is to keep it light when you apply it. Do trials first to see what colour most closely matches the white in the shadows of the petals. It may be a greenish hue as with this oxeye daisy.
Perhaps it’ll be an ochre, as on the stem and stamens of this autumn crocus.
Some white petals help by being tinged with a colour, as with these daisies.
Painting whites: Looking at other botanical illustrators
It’s also interesting to see how other illustrators have tackled the same issues; look for background washes, use of foliage, pencil lines for petal edges, and very light use of pinks, greens and blues in the paintings of Chris Hart Davies, Helga Powell and Jo Glover.

DIY Hand Painted Wood Sign
Earlier this week I told you about my trip to Hawaii. I’m still dreaming about it. Since I couldn’t bring the beautiful beaches back with me I thought I should do something to bring a little bit of ALOHA into my house in the form of this hand painted wood sign.
I started sprucing up my powder room a few days ago when I realized I’ve had the same decor in there since my first house almost eight years ago (#didijustadmitthat #suredid). I’m planning on a colorful beachy style so I’m starting it off with this aloha sign.
The sign. It is just three wood planks glued together and secured using another small plank and some finishing nails.
The color combo. These colors are just samples that I had in my garage from previous projects. I wanted a colorful and beachy look and I love the coral, yellow, mint combination.
The process. The process of making the sign was really simple. Pretty much just paint brush strokes of the different colors all over the board. I started with coral. Note: If I did it again I would start with the lightest color and move on to the darkest to prevent wasting any paint.
*Make sure to allow for drying time between colors*
Take the second color and randomly brush on the paint to fill in some of the blank space.
With the third color fill in the rest of the blank space. At this point you can also paint over any space where you feel like one color is too over powering. You want to really concentrate on the middle section as that is where your lettering will be.
Using transfer paper I placed the vinyl lettering on the painted board. I used my Silhouette Cameo to create the vinyl lettering. The font is KG Eyes Wide Open.
Then I painted one coat of white paint over the entire board. After the paint dried I peeled off the vinyl lettering to reveal the perfect multicolored sign.
It’s just so cheerful and is a gazillion times better than that old powder room decor. I can’t wait for the rest of the space to come together. But seriously, can I just have a multicolored hand painted wood sign for every space in my house now? This was way too fun!
Happy Friday friends!
I love the colors you chose for this sign, Chelsea!
Love the sign and the colors. Super cute.
So pretty. I might have to bring a little aloha in to my slice of O’ahu with this sign. As of yet, our little space doesn’t reflect the outdoors. 🙂 Glad you enjoyed your trip to our islands.
Love this project! The colors are perfect! Can’t wait to see what else you do in here 🙂
This is so adorable Chelsea!! I love the colors (of course) and I love the way you did three different colors instead of the standard one base with one over top… great idea!! Pinned! Hope you are having a great week – it was super awesome to meet you in ‘real’ life!
That sign is AWESOME, Chelsea! You did it exactly opposite then I would have guessed….I thought maybe you painted with a bunch of different colors over a stencil…it is SO cute!!! Love!
Such a cute & easy DIY project! And love the color choices! *pinning this to pinterest*

If you choose to paint your brake calipers yourself, you can do so without removing them from your car. This can be a time-saving measure, as removing and reinstalling brake calipers can be a bit of a hassle.
To paint brake calipers without removing them, you will need to purchase a brake caliper paint kit. These kits usually come with everything you need to get the job done, including instructions.
Once you have everything you need, follow these steps to paint your brake calipers:
1. Clean the brake calipers with brake cleaner and a rag. This will remove any brake dust or other debris that could prevent the paint from adhering properly.
2. Apply painters tape to the area around the brake calipers. This will help to keep paint from getting on other parts of your car.
3. Use a brake caliper brush or a small paintbrush to apply the brake caliper paint evenly to the brake calipers. Make sure to get into all the nooks and crannies.
4. Allow the brake caliper paint to dry completely before driving your car.

How to choose the best paint for brake calipers?
There are a few things you need to consider when choosing the best paint for brake calipers. One is the type of paint finish you want. Another is whether you want a permanent or temporary solution.
1. Paint Finish
There are two main types of brake caliper paint finishes: glossy and matte. Glossy brake caliper paint will give your car a more showroom look, while matte brake caliper paint will give it a more sporty look.
2. Permanent or Temporary Solution
If you want a permanent solution, you will need to choose a brake caliper paint that is specifically designed for that purpose. These paints usually require more prep work and are more difficult to apply.
If you are looking for a temporary solution, any type of brake caliper paint should work. These paints are typically easier to apply and can be removed with brake cleaner if you decide you don't like the look.
3. Other Considerations
You will also need to consider the color of brake caliper paint you want. Most brake caliper paints come in a variety of colors, so you should be able to find one that matches your car's paint job or your personal taste.
You should also consider whether you want a brake caliper paint that is brake fluid resistant. This is especially important if you are planning on doing any track days or other high-performance driving.
Finally, you will need to decide how much brake caliper paint you need. This will depend on the size of your brake calipers and how many coats of paint you plan on applying.
Now that you know what to look for, you can choose the best brake caliper paint for your needs. Just be sure to follow the instructions carefully and allow the paint to dry completely before driving your car.

Before you jump to conclusion and assume I’m naked here let me explain ! haha. For this portrait I was actually wearing a shirt. I decided to go for a much different look since I was digitally painting anyways. I have always loved the paintings of women by the water bathing. For some odd reason I find them to be extremely beautiful. So It’s safe to say that it was my inspiration for today. The tranquility it represents and how peaceful it made me feel as I was painting it makes me love this image.

Collecting famous artists' letters and autographs, as well as vintage art materials.
I don't typically name a piece unless it has a special meaning, I'm not into coming up with a clever title to make it sound "artsy." I just want to paint something that is pleasing to me and to others. Most of my paintings are combinations of places I have seen or various aspects of a scene that I simply make up.
I have several - Turner, Vermeer, Tiepolo, Monet, Pissarro.

We have four swan plants in our room and last week we put them outside for the monarchs to lay their eggs on. We got 2 tiny eggs on the leaves and over the weekend they hatched into baby caterpillars. We are excited to watch them grow as they eat.
On Friday we spent a whole block learning about drawing, and then painting our own portraits. First, we had to look carefully at a friends face and we talked about what our faces actually look like. Then we drew our faces onto our paper step by step. Lastly, we began to paint our faces and hope to finish them this Friday.

As a child, I was intrigued by the detail in Leonard de Vinci’s drawings, and later by Constable’s tree sketches. I’m influenced by Modern Scottish Colourists, thanks to my grandmother’s involvement with the Bongate Gallery, Alnwick. I’ve developed mainly as a colourist, attracted to elements of landscape: trees, water and ruined castles, working in a variety of media. My paintings capture the tension between intimacy of detail and the broad sweep of landscape and sky.
I have sketched and painted all my life, and have run a number of workshops, art demonstrations and short courses including teaching through Frome Community Education and Trowbridge Town Hall Arts.
My work has been exhibited at a number of galleries including Melbourne & Hobart, Australia, The Mall, BSA, RWA, Southampton Art Gallery, Presteign, Broadway, First View at Stourhead, Bruton Art Works, Ace Arts in Somerton and the Black Swan Art Centre, Frome.
I am a member of Artists 303, Events co-ordinator for the Frome Art Trail 2021. Chair of the Black Swan Guild 2019.

The Atkinson Art Gallery in Southport are featuring an exhibition of the work of artist Nahem Shoa until November 2019.
Nahem Shoa uses texture to build up his portraits, so they appear 3D. It is hard to capture with photos how striking these paintings really are— The Atkinson, Southport (@AtkinsonThe) October 2, 2019
Nahem's exhibition Black Presence is on until Nov 23rd. Entry is free. pic.twitter.com/aLnRl80Q8K
Shoa has curated a selection of his striking portrait paintings alongside key historic and contemporary paintings of black portrait sitters. Nahem is especially keen to increase the number of positive images of black people in British art collections and has donated many of his own works to public collections.
The exhibition includes work by Joshua Reynolds and Sonia Boyce, as well as Allan Ramsay’s outstanding ‘Portrait of an African (probably Ignatius Sancho)
Artist Nahem talks about his work in the following video.


20/01/2007 — 3/03/2007
The Fylde Collection
This was an exhibition of some of the finest works from the Fylde Borough Council Collection.
Fylde is a borough of Lancashire, the border of which runs alongside Blackpool, and includes the towns of Lytham, St. Annes on Sea and Kirkham as well as numerous smaller rural villages.
The Collection was begun in 1925 with a donation of one work from John Booth, of the northern-based supermarket chain Booths, and now exceeds over two hundred artworks, primarily 19th century painting. The Collection’s most supportive patron was Alderman James Herbert Dawson who presented over fifty works and whose unrealised ambition for the Collection was the construction of a gallery in Lytham St. Annes in which the Collection could be displayed.
This exhibition included thirty of the finest works from the Collection, many never before exhibited publicly.
The first three works to enter the Collection were by Richard Ansdell, (1815 -1885), and a number of the artist’s works were included here. Ansdell’s heroic paintings followed the manner of Sir Edwin Landseer - highland landscapes depicting sporting scenes and animal based narratives using a highly skilled painting technique. The artist lived for a time on the Fylde Coast and it is he after whom the local area of Ansdell is named.
Also included was Charles Burton Barber’s (1845 - 1894) painting entitled 'In Disgrace', 1886, which is an exquisite example of the English painter’s work. Considered as one of England’s finest animal painters, Barber's sentimental work was enjoyed by Queen Victoria, who commissioned the artist to produce pictorial records of many favoured Royal pets.
Other artists included in the exhibition were Maud Earl, Andrea Landini and Eugene de Blass.
The exhibition was organised in collaboration with Fylde Borough Council.

Before painting commences, repairs such as dampproofing and rust treatment are attended to. The repair process is followed by a cleaning process, where the roof or walls are cleaned with a high pressure cleaner, or steel brushes, to remove loose paint and dirt, depending on the type of surface.
Signs of damp include a band or tide mark wich is clearly visible. Hygroscopic salt deposits e.g chlorides or nitrates on the wall, bubbling paint or damaged plaster confirm a problem exists or as existed previously. Aided with an electronic moisture meter, our representative will determine the extent and causes of the damp problem. A complete and proper recommedation is only given after a thorough investigation.
