Art Wanted Gallery

In my searches for good art and artists I occasionally stumble across a tantilizing hint or a single work and get stuck looking for more but come up dry. This page includes a variety of works I am looking for good reproductions of, works I am looking for more information about, and artists I am intrigued by and want to find more about. In the main gallery of paintings I only display color images, so in some cases I have found black and white copies of something I would like to display, but nothing in color. If you have any information that might lead to the apprehension of any of the items listed below please report them to Brian Yoder immediately.

If you have any fugitives of your own you would like to track down, please pass them along and maybe I'll put them in here too.

Portraits of the Artists

There are a number of artists whose works are included in this website but who for one reason or another I can't seem to find a good portrait. When I can, I try to use a self-portrait which expresses the style typical of the artist, but otherwise any good photograph or painting will do. If you know of where I can find a good file or scannable artwork of portraits of any of these artists please do pass it along! I prefer to do the touching up and color correction myself, so better than thumbnail resolutions and color are more than fine even though I will shrink them down and turn them black and white myself.
