January 9, 2026March 1, 2026 RJ Walters

I became familiar with Van Gogh in my pre-teen years and have had his painting “Starry Night” on my walls ever since. There is just something about the vivid colors and distorted forms that drew me in. Continue reading Post-Impressionism

MME99 – Quintessential Pitt

January 4, 2026January 4, 2026 RJ Walters

Even though the steel mills are gone, Pittsburgh will remain a gritty city that thinks it’s a small town. During my last visit there in 2017 we spent an hour just roaming through some of the neighborhoods. It is a fascinating place. Continue reading MME99 – Quintessential Pitt

MME63 – Red Beauty

October 18, 2025May 24, 2026 RJ Walters

Clothesline Art is primarily made up of two distinct things. They are pictures of things we see in daily life but don’t draw our attention. The second category is pictures that were taken and then modified is various ways. Sometimes it is one or the other, and others it is a combination of both. Continue reading MME63 – Red Beauty
