Hey anyone out there that’s an Art Historian that wants to help with this project, shoot me a comment or something and we can start talking. I believe it’s possible to have multiple authors on a blog, and this is something I’d more then likely be willing to do for this blog if yo want to help out. The main idea is to get as much art history in here as possible, so more then one head and two hands is definitely a good idea.
Jeff Thomann's Blog- Boccionihttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umberto_Boccioni – Umberto Boccioni is one of my ‘art heroes.’ His use of color and brush strokes I find to be very inspiring and something I aspire to do somewhat similarly in my own works on some level.

- On the RoadOn the Road Oil on Canvas © 1999, Jeff Thomann For a while in college I was fascinated by the idea of driving and the metaphor of how the car becomes a part of one’s self – an extension of the inner self in a variety of ways. Much of my art since that time [...]
