[stirling]

hi just joined today looks interesting.I am interested in wildlife art any one else?.

Yes, perhaps there should be a thread for art - animals and plants in art, architecture and culture?

Who painted this?

Welcome!

[paul m]

In fact, I started a thread on insects and other invertebrates in/as art - didn't get much response, presumably because ther aren't many?

Nice, well done - hope you'll show us more!

You always have the problem of, "What is Art?". Does it include this:

The Bilbao puppy was originally constructed as an ironic piece of kitsch - but it's now the most appreciated part of the Museum (or perhaps one of the two most famous parts ...) .....

Well, it's very bright and colourful - and self-watering, they have a cunning system of watering the plants from the inside.

It's a nice city, Bilbao. If you like the puppy then you'll be impressed by this, also at the Guggenheim:
