aah! I was wondering when Norman would show up. How cool.. that soldier is in a blizzard, but hey, he got a corn cob and a tin of baccy in his Care Package.. everything else after that is gravy and smiles!

Those are great clay.

I really ove coming here and just browse through the art. Each piece truly is art, well, most of them (that dachshund and some of those tattoos might miss),each piece telling a story in a different, but magnificent way. Hope we can keep it going, and if not, then I really think I'll download them all and use as a screensaver. Each piece has spoken to me in a different way.

BTW, Juan Gris had completely skipped my mind for twenty years. Thanks for bringing his art back to me

Yes, Juan Gris. Let's pull some of the photos from that great article Kevin posted above. Here's the link: http://pipesmagazine.com/blog/pipe-smoking-culture/the-pipe-in-art-juan-gris/

I can remember girls passing me pipes while I was playing the guitar. I have fond memories of those girls. It's nice to see it trancends time.

Phonomet: I completely forgot Van Gogh was a pipe smoker. Thanks for posting! Poor guy (literally and figuratively) couldn't really afford models for painting, that's why there're so many self portraits in his portfolio.
