This is such a wonderful site! I was very excited to see that Mr. Waterhouse's paintings were touring in the U.S. sadly I missed the one close to me:( Are there any hopes of his works making it to the NAtional Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C.? If so, do you know when? Thank you for having such a beautiful and informative site.
Sincerely,
michele |

JWW has been my favourite Pre-Raph painter for years and I am always searching the net for his work. This is by far the best site of them all. Thanks for all the effort you put into your site it is very much appreciated. |

As a young artist in California, I have often been pressured to stop drawing beautiful mythical figures and to instead produce modern "art." As a gag,I did a finger-painting blindfolded and presented it to a local art critic along with my more traditional Waterhouse-esque pieces (though I'm not yet nearly as skilled as Waterhouse.) The critic dismissed all of my work as merely "craft", but praised the gag painting as true art. It is the work of artists like J.W. Waterhouse that keeps me from giving in to the pressure to devalue beauty in art, as most of the modern art world has done. The fact that J.W. Waterhouse's paintings are still appreciated gives me hope that beauty in art is not dead. |

I never in my life knew about Waterhouse, never saw a Waterhouse painting to speak of, until 1 year ago when I saw a picture that I just loved, and he happened to be the artist. Now he is my current favorite and I can't thank you enough for making all his paintings accessible to me! Wonderful site! Great special effects too.....Alene |

wonderful site. have you thought of including information such as things I have read elsewhere (sorry dont remember where) about detailed examinations of the some paintings and changes that Waterhouse made during the process? Dont know how much of this sort of thing is available but it is interesting.
Also have you thought of (perhaps I just missed it) including info on what it means to be "pre Raphealite" or...? I have run into people who seem to think that the aintings "have darkened due to age" and such.
As I said perhaps the info is here and I didnt see it yet. I was at first rather shocked by the water effect on the thumbnails but it is so well done that I have to admire it. |

Ok. Tihs is going to sound odd. But yesterday i went to an art show where Waterhouse's Uylsses and the Sirens was on display. The strange thing was that I looked very simliar to several of the sirens. So i was wondering do you know who this model was or any other paintings with her in them?
thanks.
p.s.-I did enjoy your site. |
