It may seem small, but every little helps. This is the first link I'd like to put on my website. Just one click of your mouse button and you are making a difference. Click the yellow button on the website and that click provides the means for one cup of food for someone who desperately needs it and it won't cost you a penny. There are other websites linked to this site that can help worthy causes in a similar way. Just one click of your mouse buttion, that's all it costs. Donna Cale - Portraits With A Human Touch My friend Donna has creative talent in many areas. She shares my interest in pencil portraiture and also finds inspiration in the work of the PreRaphaelites. For me, I admire the way she captures childhood with graphite. Great observation is required to do this. Judging by her scenic photography, she happens to live in a stunning part of the world too. Recommended to me, this website aims for a return to traditional classical fine art. If, like me, you feel that a great deal of modern art is totally overrated, over-hyped and lacking in any skill, then this is the site for you. It contains great high-resolution images from artists such as Millais, Rossetti, Burne-Jones, Leighton, Waterhouse, Alma-Tadema, Bouguereau.....to name a few of my favourites. To my mind an artist that is a little underrated is Evelyn De Morgan. One of the first female artists to study at the Slade School of Art she was exceptionally good at drawing. It was when looking at her drawings at an exhibition in Wandsworth, London that I changed my approach to drawing in the late '90s. The De Morgan Centre is well worth a visit. I came up with the name of this site and designed and built it. My skills in portrait art came in handy especially for the design of the home page.
