Michael Humphries. If you see in the picture ..
If you see in the picture
Cup of coffee on the table,
Or juice in a large carafe
Or a rose in a crystal vase,
Or bronze vase
Or pear or cake,
Or all of the items at once, -
Know that this is a still-life ......
If you see in the picture
Painted river
Or spruce and white frost,
Or garden and clouds,
Or snow-covered plain,
Or field and hut -
Mandatory picture
Called landscape ........
Artist - illustrator Michael Humphries.
Here's what he tells Michael about yourself:
"The American landscape has always fascinated me, whether it's lonely deserted barn or house, or the simplicity of the old wooden bench in the garden with cracked paint. Much intrigue in nature, and that is what inspires me to write ... From an early age I knew that art would be my passion. His professional career in the arts, I started at the studio Walt Disney Studios. "He currently teaches at the College of Art Center of Design in Pasadena, California.

Star! And in a puddle ...
And today Hedgehog said teddy bear:
- As yet it is good that we have each other!
Bear nodded.
- Just imagine: I do not, you sit alone and talk to no one.
- And where are you?
- And I do not.
- It does not happen, - said Bear.
- I think so too, - said the Hedgehog. - But suddenly here - I do not have. You're the one. What are you going to do? .....
- Turn everything upside down, and you otyschesh!
- No me nowhere !!!
- Then, then ...... Then I run out in the field, - said Bear. - And scream: "Yo-yo-yo-yarn-and-and-in" and you will hear and scream: "Medvezhono-of-the-ok! ......". Here you go.
- No, - said the Hedgehog. - I'm not a bit not. Do you understand?
- What are you bothering me? - Angry bear. - If you do not, then I do not. Got it? ......
"Here you go. Can not see anything. Even paws are not visible."
Medias Negras
And it is interesting - thought Hedgehog - if horse goes to bed, she zahlebnёtsya in the fog?
Star! And in a puddle ...
Out of the mist, as from the vents, looked Filin, boomed:? Yeah!
U-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu! ..? and disappeared into the fog. ? Loony ?, - thought Hedgehog
picked up a stick and dry, feeling her fog, moved forward.
After all, who but you, the stars will be something to consider ?!

Zealous little skate.
At the bottom of the sea in shells wondrous,
Where the waves are hiding in the sand.
Grotto guards playing mane
Zealous little skate.
Sea dragons are relatives of seahorses. They live in the wild in two types of these funny creatures - Leafy sea dragon (Leafy sea dragons) and rag-pickers, or the grassy sea dragon (Weedy sea dragons), which was captured in the photo below.
Isle of Flowers on Siene near Vetheuil, 1880
Holding the tail of the stalk,
Stands on the bottom of the sea fad.
He bends the neck cool,
But fast is not able to run.
