There is pressure on artists to create works with an edge, a modern twist that can grab the attention of today's art consumers. This isn't a uniquely modern situation--it's been the case throughout
history. This isn't always easy for artists, who may already be struggling to artistically produce their own particular vision, which may or may not fit the modern paradigm of what art should be.

There is pressure on artists to create works with an edge, a modern twist that can grab the attention of today's art consumers. This isn't a uniquely modern situation--it's been the case throughout
history. This isn't always easy for artists, who may already be struggling to artistically produce their own particular vision, which may or may not fit the modern paradigm of what art should be.
I've begun to get a much better understanding of what it is that I want to say with my art, and what my personal quest is artistically. The challenge, then, is to remain true to one's own artistic
quest, yet try to present the work in such a way as to make it available to those who might enjoy it. Vidcast of this Podcast Matisse, `Reclining Nude`, at MoMA Davidson, `Trotsky 2` Davidson,

[This show is available as a vidcast at www.hollyedavidson.com/v22] Dogs are a common and welcome site in art, particularly in Western art, but in art from many cultures. Why is that? Sometimes, dogs
are used to represent certain traits, like loyalty or fidelity, but just as often, it is for the joy that dogs bring to the canvas, or work. It's fun to see how dogs reflect their owners in certain
works; or is it the other way around? Some of the greatest artists of our time have painted dogs, and these works capture the quintessential nature of the dog: loyal, pure of spirit, loving, and
exuberant. Remaining Links Jan van Eyck, The Arnolfini Marriage, 1434, The National Gallery, London Albert Giacometti, Dog, 1957, at MoMA Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, `Lady with a Dog`, 1891 David
Hockney, `Dog Painting 25`, 1995 William Wegman, `Golf Anyone`, 1992 Pierre-Auguste Renoir, `Head of a Dog`, 1870 Thomas Eakins, The Artist's Wife and His Setter Dog, at the Met, ~1884-1889 Vidcast

[This podcast is additionally available as a vidcast, at www.hollyedavidson.com/v21] The Mona Lisa, and The Girl with a Pearl Earing, justifiably end up the subject of popular culture and the movies.
Some works simply have such a powerful mystique, that we find ourselves wanting to know more about them, to understand them better. Fra Angelico's works also qualify; they represent an evolutionary
leap forward for their time, and still captivate us today. Leonardo da Vinci, `Mona Lisa`, at the Louvre Johannes Vermeer, `Girl with a Pearl Earring`, ~1665, at The Mauritshuis The movie, `Girl with
a Pearl Earring`, (c) 2003, Lions Gate Films Former Fra Angelico Exhibit at the Met Fra Angelico, `The Madonna of Humility`, ~1430, at the National Gallery of Art Fra Angelico, `Altarpiece of the
