We’ve redesigned.
We decided that in order to
make this publication as
great as it can be, it was time
for an update. Now that
we have a good feel on how
we want this publication to
grow and develop, we have a
clearer vision on the design.
Don’t worry! The content is the
same, and maybe it is even
better! We just feel this new
design lets us showcase
the art in the best way possible.
Cool. Glad we had this talk.
Now... get reading, and tell us
what you think!

baroque’s baddie:
artemisia gentileschi
If you couldn’t tell, I kind of love the Baroque. I think I have
talked about it several times in the few editions we
have The Art Cabinet thus far. However, I have good reason
to want to talk about it! The art was moody, incredible,
and very different from anything before. Plus, it wasn’t JUST
men who ruled this world of Baroque art. We have our-
selves THE Baroque Baddie… Artemisia Gentileschi. If I could
have a dinner with this woman, I would. She is an icon.
She dealt with the audacity of men to the max every day of
her life, and especially as a female artist… there was a
lot she had to do. Big yikes. Men suck. End of story.
I am kidding! Well, about the end of story thing; I’ll let you
make your own opinion on the rest. However, as much
as I would love to talk about tearing down the patriarchy, I
also want to actually talk about the incredible and mind-
blowing achievements of Artemisia Gentileschi. So, I’m going
to give you some background on herself, her work, and
a little bit of the ridiculousness of men she encountered.
