Website of the Day: Art Pad Painter
Thanks to Teamsugar user JessNess for submitting Art Pad Painter as one of Geeksugar's websites of the day! This is what she had to say about it:"This is a fun website that I happened upon one day. Basically you are given a canvas that you can paint what ever you want on.

Rob in the New Zealand Herald
He's bigger than Ben-Hur at the moment, if you believe all the hype. Yet to come face-to-face with Robert Pattinson is to meet a serious artist, a multi-talented individual who could as easily have been a classical or funky musician as a movie star. The Twilight juggernaut is propelling the 23-year-old British actor to the heights of mega stardom and, having previously only played minor roles, most notably as Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, he is making the most of it.Art Pad Painter
http://artpad.art.com/artpad/painter/ This is a fun website that I happened upon one day. Basically you are given a canvas that you can paint what ever you want on. Be your own artist Be your own Van Gogh My own crappy work Here are some of the work on display on the siteFrancisco José de Goya - Painter to the Royal Court
Goya Self Portrait
Francisco jose de Goya was born in Spain and was the painter to the royal court. As a result you'll see alot of rich people in his art draped in expensive clothing of the period and also some religious work.
The Family of Charles the IV
Saturn Devouring his Son
His most famous works are the Nude Maja and the Clothed maja.
Gaza zoo replaces zebras with painted donkeys
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip - Gaza City zookeepers have found a creative way of drawing crowds to their dilapidated zoo — by painting their donkeys. The Marah Land Zoo's only two zebras died of hunger earlier this year when they were neglected during the Israel-Hamas war. The popular animals were too expensive to replace, so the keepers decided to design a pair of donkeys with black and white patterns instead.Home Video - I Can Make You Feel It
Home Video (www.homevideo.fm) are Collin Ruffino and David Gross, transplants from the misunderstood landscape of New Orleans, now living in the brooding brownstones of Brooklyn, New York. Here they revel in a self-created world of references to Edward Gorey, Massive Attack, The Brothers Quay, Smashing Pumpkins, and a dusting of Chopin, references that they have been collecting for nearly ten years.
They connected in high school art class in 1997.
House & barn painting
Started this part of our house project in early July. Painter's estimate was $13k, which was close to our budget for the entire house, so like much of the rest of it, we did it ourselves. Total cost: ~$1300 in primer, good paint, sanders, and supplies.
Shortly after we started sanding the first part of the house (did a lead test first), both my parents ended up in the hospital, so we didn't touch the house again until August. With the help of 3 dear friends, the rest of this was done in the past month.
It's far from finished yet, but an improvement!
