Summer Fruit
Here in the northeastern corner of the US, it's berry picking season. Ripe and delicious strawberries and blueberries, raspberries and blackberries are ready for the taking. Fruit has a long and interesting history as a subject in art. In the Baroque era, painters would depict lavish bounties of exotic fruits and other delicious delights for patrons to essentially show off their wealth to others. Many a student and teacher alike will test their skills with a simple fruit still life, and contemporary creators are still tackling the subject with a new eye, and a new twist.
What's in season where you live? If you have any fruit related artwork you'd like to share with our readers, please leave a link in the comments!

Geometry
Geometry is an inherent part of all artists' work, whether readily apparent or not. This week's Fine Art Friday collection is inspired by artists that make geometry front and center as their subject.

All the Colors of the Rainbow
Every season has a color palette. The earthy tones of Autumn, the muted whites and pale blues of winter, the cheery pastels of Spring, and the full-on, technicolor vibrancy of Summer. This week's blog post is celebrating the audacity of color in art and artists unafraid to go for broke.
If you aren't afraid of color in your art, let's see it in the comments section! Post a link to your site or a particular piece that shines with all of the colors of the rainbow.

Summer Vacation
School is out (or at least almost) and you know what that means... summer vacation time! What are your travel plans this year? Any new destinations you will be visiting or is it a yearly tradition to go to the same place?
