Artwork of the Day: The Education of Lydia (Artist Unknown)


Unknown Artist

This is from 1966.  Stories about “what really happened” at college were popular during the pulp era, because they both scared and titalated parents while giving the future college students of America something to look forward to.  The author’s name, Charles X. Wolffe, looks like an obvious pseudonym or a house name that many writers shared.  But Beacon Signal only published four books by “Charles X. Wolffe” so he might have been a real person.  Unfortunately ,the identity of the artist responsible for this cover is not known.

Artwork of the Day: Just A Picture Of A Park In The Rain

Happy New Year!

I know that this is a simple picture, especially considering that it’s the first artwork of the day of 2022.  I took it at the Shops at Legacy in Plano, Texas on one rainy afternoon.  I got soaked taking the picture but I think it was worth it.  It’s a picture that anyone could have taken but it’s also a picture that fill me with hope and peace, which is what we should all start the new year with.  Looking at this picture reminds me that there will always be storms but they will be temporary.  And sometimes, the rain can be beautiful.
