Good looks: creating art in the momen

Article Abstract:

American artist Richard Schmid states that he paints what he sees, but his perception of what he sees is the real subject, not the thing itself. His intent is to capture the moment by painting directly from life, in one session, in the Italian art phrase 'alla prima.' Schmid writes about his experiences in his revised book 'Alla Prima: Everything I Know About Painting.'

Good looks

Article Abstract:

The fashion industry is using models who are 50-plus to target a generation of middle-age or older people in ads. In the past, any model over 30 was considered retired. There are more women than men in the older age group of models who appeal to the baby boomers now growing older.
