For me art is an expression of the human condition. How would you define it? Post your favourite image and tell us why you like it.

For over sixty years, Art Linkletter has lifted our spirits. This Emmy Award winner has performed in such popular television and radio shows as House Party, People Are Funny, and Kids Say the Darndest Things (currently airing Friday nights on CBS-TV with Bill Cosby) based on his best-selling book of the same title. A true master of the podium, this recipient of ten honorary doctorate degrees has inspired thousands of audiences during his prolific speaking career.

Here's a great painting by Mikhail Vrubel, a Russian artist:



Oops, we're supposed to say why we like it.

Vrubel's work is always filled with great energy. Though his figures always seem uneasy. His drawings are really great too. I used to copy his stuff all the time when I was younger.

Here's another by Vrubel. The Demon.



I sometimes use a Vrubel painting for my avatar.
