I posted this link about 10,000 words back, on page one, but in case you missed it, check it out. Click on the names of the artists to see thoughtful selections of their stuff. All are stunning. Don't miss Arthur B. Carles — I wasn't aware of him at all until a few weeks ago, but this collection makes me wonder if he might have been simply the best American artist of the 20th Century.

Uh oh, five. The Mild Cubist Enforcement Division will be banging on your door any moment.

it's okay. It's hard for me not to erase space, too. I'm a bit fickle. But I will try to stay within the parameters of your challenge

Carles has some wonderful work -- very talented -- but it's a bit too inconsistent for me. (Pretty unfair for me to say considering how inconsistent I can be) Didn't know about him before this.

Here's a really beautiful work by Carles -- it wasn't on the site you posted. He really was phenomenally (ack -sp?) good with color

That is nice & lush - like Redon (sp?) but less decadent.

Yes, like Redon -- Redon was one of my early favorites

It's hard to see with all the words, and all the linkages, but we're started to get a nice collection of TD pix here. Thanks for making this work!

Just for you, chelydra..... and I will keep trying for this challenge. I'm enjoying being challenged and stretched by it, but haven't yet created anything worth keeping!

yarraki seems to have the knack!

Oops, forgot to put the picture in!

Well I had a go anyway. I ried to show all angles of the dancer, so they could be facing anyway at all, but there's not much cubism in it.

Greetings everyone, great to see you.

About that deadline: I'm hoping several more people are going to get interested and show up over the next several days. Anyone who spends even a few minutes with the galleries of examples should be drawn in (no pun intended) — I find many of them mind-bogglingly beautiful, eye-opening, and inspirational — yet not as intimidating as most experimental art and great art tends to be. By Tuesday or Wednesday we'll see if it's picking up momentum or fizzling out. At that point I'll end or extend it until around next Saturday or Sunday.

I'm adding this anti-rough cubic pic.... just in case it has something to do.... If not, anyone is invited to have dinner with me please.

Polenta — Since you're still saying you have no idea what this about... Does this help? None of these are exactly what I had in mind, but I never expected anyone to submit EXACTLY what I had in mind. But they have the FEELING I was hoping to get. Spacious, alive, colorful, somewhat abstract...
