Live Painting in Toronto via Art Blog

Each evening from June 1 to 10, Carlito Dalceggio will work on a large outdoor 20 x 60 foot canvas, mounted on the side of Hôtel Le Germain in Toronto, into a work of art. You can see daily video updates of the canvas's transformation at an art blog dedicated to engaging viewers in a dialogue about beauty (the theme of his art project).  At the blog you can share your thoughts on art and beauty, and send any related material. You can also see what others have to say, and watch as this community responds to Carlito. There is also a You Tube video that records Carilito’s ideas on art and beauty. It is too early to tell if the art is good (at least in my opinion) but the idea is a good use of the web to augment the experience. It is sponsored by several beauty products firms, thus the theme.

Photos of Onset MA 10/05

Taken October 2005.  The first five photos are taken from the Point Independence Inn looking over at Onset harbor at different times of the day. It is a great place to stay. The next picture looks back at the inn and then there is a view of the inn from the beach in front of it. The final picture shows part of the beach.

Still Life with Apples Phase 2

Here is an updated version of the still life with apples I posted yesterday. I added more shadow to the apples, put some color in the table cloth and lightened part of the back ground. It is 18" x 24."

Still Life of Apples

This is a 18" x 24" arcrylic painting. It is still a work in progress as I plan to work a bit more on the apples and the background.
