Your Street, Your World.

keep an eye on what’s interesting and new in the world of art,
including photography. What problems, issues, or concepts are
contemporary artists trying to explore? What new techniques
are available? Take a look at gallery shows, as well as art blogs,
books, and magazines.
Classical Art.
Sometimes the old ways are the best. Museums and art
shows that include traditional paintings are great sources
of timeless inspiration.
