I like the Christian author Francine Rivers... liked or outright loved everything I've read of hers so far, especially the Mark of the Lion trilogy.
Art? I love Ilya Repin.
He was an absolute master of facial expression.
(Apologies for Ivan the Terrible... That one is perhaps a bit grisly.)
("Fie on your traditional Victorian subjects!" xD)

You know my house has art work I love in it. But I think looking at others I must be a rare one who likes him. Even though he has galleries around the world I think you all may laugh. So I will ponder if I am going to show. There is some serious make you want to think art here.

Something I love about art is that it can be used to convey the entire spectrum of the human experience. I also enjoy art that makes a social commentary without saying a word, as some of our contributors have posted.
Here is an especially haunting, very recent piece in the exhibit "Dismaland" (a riff off Disneyland), located in the UK (*WARNING* Some may find this too disturbing):
This is a commentary about the death of Princess Diana. In the "theme park's" brochure, the caption says, "Step inside the fairytale... and see what it feels like to be a real princess."
I recently saw a live-action run of this piece and it's set up so that the mannequin photographer's "cameras" are going off constantly, creating constant, blinding flashes of light, in a parallel of Diana's car crash where the photographers continuously photographed the scene, but not a single one stepped forward to give aid or medical assistance.
I find this piece to be thought-provoking, haunting... and in some ways, even scarring.

One of the things I love most about art is that I can find something within its realm that expresses every facet of my personality, no matter how dichotomous: black and white vs. color, comedic vs. thought-provoking, elation vs. reflection, and fantasy vs. reality.

Wow, Abing, has she been accepted into an art school or does she work in the field for a living?
If not, she most certainly should!
If not, she most certainly should!
How God worked in her life is truly a blessing.
