URL: Pages on Cotton History, published by a commercial T-Shirt Site

This URL was submitted for S. Muse. The marketer sent a well-thought-out email. The site is commercial, though--T-shirt printers/sellers. Sophisticated marketing technique, there. The page might be worth linking--keep an eye on it.

Artist, Admiring of Landscapes: Dennis Sheehan

Ran across this artist who is still working, whose landscapes are wonderful, though very much inspired, if not copied, from the style of 19th and early 20th century American tonal painters: Dennis Sheehan. The landscapes are wonderful. His studio and workshop seem rather commercial, but his style seems true. Look up: Dennis Sheehan. (Search Google images for a quick overview.)
