Art Work of the Day

The first time that I saw a work by Rodney Smith was inside of the magazine Communication Arts. The work above was the photograph that I saw in that particular issue of Communication Arts. There is a timeless quality to the work that stuck in my mind.

Then, about a year later I saw the same photograph in an advertisement on the pages of the New York Times. Although they might be commercialized, the works evoke a sense a timeless beauty.

There is something surreal and powerful in the works. They seem to be glimpses into a magical world of whimsical beauty. I have also included some other works that I like by Mr. Smith. You should also check out his blog.
