South Shore of Staten Island: Sunset on Raritan Bay
A portion of the history of painting in both Eastern and Western art is dominated by spiritual motifs and ideas; examples of this kind of painting range from artwork depicting mythological figures on pottery to Biblical scenes rendered on the interior walls and ceiling of The Sistine Chapel, to scenes from the life of Buddha or other images of eastern religious origin.

Ink paintings are done with a liquid that contains pigments and/or dyes and is used to color a surface to produce an image, text, or design. Ink is used for drawing with a pen, brush, or quill. Ink can be a complex medium, composed of solvents, pigments, dyes, resins, lubricants, solubilizers, surfactants, particulate matter, fluorescers, and other materials. The components of inks serve many purposes; the ink's carrier, colorants, and other additives control flow and thickness of the ink and its appearance when dry.

Fishing Pier at Night, Perth Amboy, New Jersey
Perth Amboy's waterfront is where the
city was first settled and one of the few places left in New Jersey that
has a historic and marina culture surrounded by water. Local attractions
include two small museums, an art gallery, a yacht club, and a marina. Near
the marina lies a park with a small bandshell. On sunday afternoons in the
summertime, Perth Amboy hosts the Concerts by the Bay in the park's bandshell. The waterfront is also characterized
by a redbrick promenade near the water and many stately Victorian homes,
some on hills overlooking the bay and predominating tree lined streets with
well-manicured lawns. It has a number of seafood restaurants, as well. The
waterfront rises very steep after two blocks. This hinders the rest of the
town making the waterfront look like a quiet fishing village. Points of interest on the waterfront
include St. Peter’s Episcopal Church, and the Proprietary House, which
is now the former governor’s mansion and houses a museum and some offices.
Kearny Cottage, which also has a museum, is here. In addition, this section of Perth Amboy
once had a thriving Jewish community with yeshivas, synogagues, kosher butchers
and bakers. Today however there are only two synogagues left each with only
a few members usually over the age of 55.
