I spent a few hours in the national arts club yesterday. I was invited to come down there and visit. It is an amazing place. I donated an original gardega glass piece to their collection. Will upload some new art tonight

artist of the day---vitruvius

Many poeple do not understand that the above drawing by leonardo is a study of the theory of a genius named vitruvius. Much of Leonardo's work and inspiration came direct from vitruvius who was a renaissance genius before the renaissance ever happened. I suggest you google him and learn about him and you can start with the wiki link although I hate wikipedia it is a start...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitruvius

the more you study him, the more you can learn that leonardo did not arise out of a vacuum but rather had some great sources.

and as DALI said--genius is concealing your sources.
