The Monday Morning Memo

My friend Eric Rhoads publishes a couple of very important magazines about fine art. One day we were discussing William Bouguereau and Eric said Bouguereau’s technique was often referred to as “painterly.” I’ve never been quite sure what that means, but I’m thinking Carl Rice Embrey might also be considered “painterly.” Eric, if you’re reading this, please tell me yes or no.

Artist Don Jusko wrote, “William Bouguereau is the Classical Painting technique, High Art Painting in the history of man.” 

I don’t know what that means, either, but I think Jusko is saying Bouguereau is extremely, very good. I wonder what Jusko would say about our homeboy, Carl Rice Embrey?

Random Quote:

“When Cervantes invited a new generation of readers to follow his knight into the Sierra Morena, they discovered through their tears of laughter that they had entered a new world. For the writers and readers to come, the pages of a book could never again stand like foreign objects of wonder, to be admired from a distance. From now on, opening a book would mean stepping into a space more like one’s own, a Sierra Morena next door instead of a mythical wood or mystic crag, and even those places of mystery or magic, from Never Never Land to Hogwarts, would always be places in which other versions of our own selves would go to for relief from the pressures, pain, or simply the boredom of our daily lives.”

- William Egginton, The Man Who Invented Fiction, p. 136
