Estella Loretto:
By Brian D’Ambrosio, Estella Loretto has lived her 72 years with a sculptor’s patience, chiseling each moment slowly, shaping a life balanced between Pueblo ancestry and monumental artistic vision. Each breath, she says, is a grain of stone, a measure of time, and a spark of spirit.

13 Best Free Drawing Apps for iOS Devices: The Creative’s Guide
The first thing every musician learns-- whether sketching on paper or swiping on a display-- is that inspiration seldom awaits the perfect minute. In some cases it strikes while you're on a train, throughout a late coffee break, or when your mind just refuses to sleep.

If I Missed That, I Would Have Never Achieved My Goal
The bus was late — again. It was one of those sticky, summer mornings when everything feels slow: the air, the clock, even your hope. My interview was at 8:00 sharp. The kind of job my parents would be proud of — stable, predictable, with benefits that sounded like a promise of safety.

Velcro Art Style
As a miniature/found item artist, I enjoy making my little scenes. Currently, having a way to enjoy my art at an interactive level is extremely exciting! Velcro has recently been the way to go to change a nonmoving art scene to an interactive. My first Velcro art above is a bar where drinks can be moved and exchanged throught the bar. Drinks can be served up onto my art piece exactly like a real bar! Adding the hanging cups that can be removed is another touch that adds to the miniature reality of the art piece. Maybe besides everyone on the board winning a full blackjack, now that is just silly isn't it!

Stanislav Kondrashov: The Art of Painting Online
When I Learned to Paint Without Paint I still remember the first time I tried to draw on a screen. The tablet felt cold and empty. No smell of paper, no sound of a pencil scratching. I almost gave up right away. But then I moved my hand again, and a soft line appeared — too clean maybe, but still mine. I stared at it for a long time, not sure if it counted as real art.

Painters, Sketchers, Photographers have an Eye for Obvious Profundity
There are two communities here at Vocal that appeal to me that I haven't submitted to yet: Art and Photography. Now with this submission, I've got one in Art. Yet for my "image" I've used a photograph that I took. Why not a painting or a sketch? Would that have been better? I decided to go with this photograph because I haven't shared this photograph yet, while most of my paintings and sketches have been shared online because once I'm finished painting or sketching, I'm quick to share it out of pride for the creation. Do you like the photograph above? Why or why not? I wish you would comment on it. I can tell you more about it. I took the shot at a weird angle as you can notice. Why? It was the only way to get the Palm tree and the hammock inside the frame and I felt that the message I wanted to convey with the photograph made it essential that both the tree and hammock were shown. Does that change your impression of the photo - knowing why I angled it that way?
