There are many different forms of art and many ways to express yourself. What we are pushing for in this group to bring the artist out of everyone. Some don't even realize that what they love to do is an art; for instance YouTubers who make homemade movies, or Landscapers, even your Dreams are artistic (I for one enjoy a good horror nightmare )... So what is your art?... I am Mark Wilkinson, the sketcher and occasional gismo builder.

I love art, when I see a drawing or a painting, a sculputure, it doesn't matter how abstract, I always get what the artrist pretended, by myself. Yet my art skills are less than a 3rd grader. So create a team play so that I can show you guys real art!!!!!! live and in the making, cause I will obliterate the enemy in the realms of my chessboard, and all in the cause for THE PINNACLE OF ART. I shall not take any prisioners, all of their king's heads will be be-headed while I stare at Dali's art, sip a nice Cabernet, and listen to Gotan Project.........by the way CHECKMATE!!!

Hi everyone.....this is my latesy painting done with ArtRage and Photoshop. It's called the Bridge. I did it yesterday and am very happy with it. Sorry the pic is a bit big.....next time I'll try and put a scaled down pic so it fits better.

this is me black and white

Dear Pinnacle, It's been moments now on the 20th Jan. 2010, that I've learned about the passing of Dr_Doc. Many of you may have recognized him as the leader of this group and a friend. For those who may not have known, he was the leader of The Pinnacle of Art, long before I joined. There's not much that I can say right now, except that I am moved and saddened by his death, but I am touched and honored by his life. I've been told by a close friend of his, that he wanted me to be the SuperAdmin for this group. Before his death, he entrusted his friend with access to his account to make that appointment. Accepting the role of SuperAdmin is not one that I take lightly, however, and I still need time to think on all that has transpired. This group will go on with out a doubt, as we have other Admins and many interactive members. I don't believe Dr_Doc would've wanted it any other way. You can read about his death and the testimony for his friend on his behalf via this link: http://www.chess.com/forum/view/off-topic/drdocmd-is-dead Please feel free to pay your respects to our former Group leader, Dr_Doc, who left us with something we can share and enjoy with each other.

Who is your favorite artist? What is your favorite work? My favorite artist is M.C. Escher, with Belvedere being my favorite work. Close behind is Ansel Adams and his work in Yosemite.

I know artists, i am a wolf acting like a turkey, i am thankful for all the friends i have and i am in this wonderful group! What are u guys thankful for?

Here is how this game works: You are trying to guess the name of the artwork and its artist. The person who guesses it right will then post any piece of artwork they want to. (has to be somehwhat well known) So, I'll start with this famous piece by an artist who is the pioneer of expressionism:

You’re a heartbeat away from making a mistake You’re a heartbeat away from catching a break You’re a heartbeat away from taking a fall You’re a heartbeat away from leaving it all If all your dreams were just a heartbeat away, What more would you need to achieve them today? Would the fear of an unfulfilled life, somehow, be enough? Or, would you need something more to make you fearless and tough? If all your fears were just a heartbeat away, Even until death, would you not kneel down and pray? To love, to live, to be truly alive; No fear, no sorrow must ever survive; Your mind must come to peace, understanding, and knowledge of the truth; A spiritual inclining that was instilled from your youth. The power to change is like the beat of a heart; Where the next step you take is for the next step to start. A heartbeat’s time span may be your moment of grace, But be careful that procrastination does not land you in the wrong place. Always keep in mind that this life must pass away, But that your chance at true life is just a heartbeat away. By Wilfred Sw McKenzie

all the poems i post in here r all my own work and can be found in my blog. Screams going round in my head All i can feel is nothing but dread Wot i want i know i cant have And so for now il just feel sad Where this thing wil go nobody knows Not even with me i cant go with the flow My life has been paused Without a single cause Well there is something i know i must do But for now i know i wont lose I gotta stay strong keep my head up high And il be damned if im ever gonna cry One of these days its all gonna end And until that day i don’t need to send My heart is staying firm right there in my chest And so the best i can do wil simply be my best.
