WIPs I think people prefer to put elsewhere, like the private forums.
Stuff in current shows we can go find for ourselves; if we see something we like, we can always post.
There's always room for something shiny!

Trying very hard to ignore just how many ways one could answer the Question title of this thread, but biting tongue and being good in the public forum......

Status: offline 		I would love some challenges!  And WIPs!  I only do abstracts once in a great while but I really enjoy them, and would love to see how they come together for other artists who do it as their main style.

Status: online 		I have been digging up some books, as I don't want to just copy Wikipedia.
I am compiling a list of lesser known abstract artists and their life and works. Maybe I can present one a month or something. If anyone has an artist they would like to know more about, let me know too.
If all that is OK with Lisa, of course.

Sounds good, I've never heard of him!
