Today's comment comes from Becky Knold in response to Volcano visual arts critic Alec Clayton's latest "Clayton on Art" blog, discussing the artwork of Vally Nomidou and Scott Fife.

Knold writes,

Loved this article by Alec Clayton, and appreciated the other links that it turned me on to also. I was familiar with the Big Puppy guy, Scott Fife, and his work, but was totally enthralled with the introduction to the Greek artist, Vally Nomidou... these are wonderful! just a tad "creepy" as you say, but I can't stop looking at them. Much more interesting to me than the other 2 more "lifelike" sculptors who you mention. Mystery, intrigue, questions, and imagination are all stirred by Vally Nomidou, an artist I'm going to be "following". Thanks again, Alec, for your insightful commentary on artists near and far, contemporary and historical. It's all good.
