QUADRIPLEGIC LINKS:
Jeff Galli: Interesting,
well-written site about the experience of being quadriplegic. This site is particularly
helpful for people who are curious about the high-tech equipment
available for quadriplegics. If you want to know what a halo and a striker frame look like, this
site has pictures.
Callahan Online:
Quadriplegic cartoonist. Not for the easily offended, because it isn't
politically correct at all, but if I didn't think it was funny, I
wouldn't be listing it.
Je Don
Washington: Another quadriplegic artist who managed to achieve the
impossible. His accident is an eerie parallel to Wendell's experience.
Mike Murach: A quadriplegic
artist who is working in digital media. The site itself is well designed
and worth a look.
Moses Hamilton: A quadriplegic
mouth-painter located in Hawaii, his tropical paintings are bold and
colorful.
ARTIST LINKS: Here are a few of Wendell's
favorite artists in no particular order. He took inspiration from a
great many, but these artists were especially influential to him. The
site that I decided to use for reference is very slow to load, but the
images are superb!
John
Singer Sargent: An excellent painter of portraiture and landscape,
Sargent's flowing brush strokes lend a formidable realism to each
subject.
Heironymous
Bosch: Wendell was very interested in the esoteric paintings of
Bosch. Echoes of Bosch appear in some of his pen and ink drawings.
Titian:
An old master of the Venetian tradition.
Rembrandt:
An old master of the Baroque Period.
Vermeer:
The master of light. His paintings actually seem to glow in real life!
Leonardo
Da Vinci: If you don't know who he is, you better click on this link
quickly! EVERYBODY knows DaVinci!
FELLOW ARTISTS: Here are some very talented
artists who have interesting web sites that you will enjoy. Leon
Engelen: Excellent oil paintings of rural scenery and animals in
realistic classical technique. He also offers classes, and has an
extensive compilation of links to other artists. Seung-ho
Kim: Talented artist and science teacher from South Korea. Painter
of realistic oriental watercolor landscapes.
Ron Gang: Painter of
landscapes and other subjects from Israel.
Vasilij Belikov: A Russian painter
of landscapes (and other genre) with an impressionistic, painterly
style. |
