How do you fix broken pottery?
Weldbond has been recommended by many.
Mix it 5 parts of water per 1 part Weldbond and apply to each edge of broken ceramic to seal.
After that's dry, working with two pieces at a time, apply undiluted Weldbond to each edge and wait until slightly tacky. Press the pieces together and hold with masking tape until dry.
Weldbond dries clear and is nontoxic, so you should have a usable, attractive bowl when finished.
Another option is to take the bowl to a ceramics shop where they can repair and re-fire it, often make it look new again.
Why is the weeping woman crying?
well the weeping woman was painted by Picasso. The woman in this picture was actually a real woman, Picasso knew her well but he thought she was always sad and miserable (that is why he drew her as 'the weeping women.') Also, the reason her face looks so broken up signifies that she is 'broken up inside' meaning that she is sad :( the colours in the picture are the colours of bruses because she is physically hurt aswell. She is holding a handkerchief to her mouth, the hanky is drawn as a broken piece of glass because that is hurting her and the black and white part (mouth and around) means somat like she is being torn apart but im not sure about that one!
Also this is an extract from an article I DID NOT WRITE THIS I JUST COPIED AND PASTED IT FOR YOUR BENIFIT XD
'This is a study of how much pain can be communicated by a human face. It has the features of a specific person, Dora Maar, whom Picasso described as "always weeping". She was in fact his close collaborator in the time of his life when he was most involved with politics.
Let your eyes wander over the sharp surface and you are led by the jagged black lines to the picture's centre, her mouth and chin, where the flesh seems to have been peeled away by corrosive tears to reveal hard white bone. The handkerchief she stuffs in her mouth is like a shard of glass. Her eyes are black apertures. When you are inside this picture you are inside pain; it hits you like a punch in the stomach.
Picasso's insistence that we imagine ourselves into the excoriated face of this woman, into her dark eyes, was part of his response to seeing newspaper photographs of the Luftwaffe's bombing of Guernica on behalf of Franco in the Spanish civil war on April 26, 1937. This painting came at the end of the series of paintings, prints and drawings that Picasso made in protest. It has very personal, Spanish sources. In May 1937 Picasso's mother wrote to him from Barcelona that smokes from the burning city during the fighting made her eyes water. The Mater Dolorosa, the weeping Virgin, is a traditional image in Spanish art, often represented in lurid baroque sculptures with glass tears, like the very solid one that flows towards this woman's right ear. Picasso's father, an artist, made one for the family home.
This painting takes such associations and chews them to pulp. It is about the violence that we feel when we look at it, about translating the rawest human emotion into paint. Its origins lie in the tortured figures of Picasso's Guernica (1937), whose suffering is calculated to convey you beyond the photographs of the bombing to sense momentarily what it was to be there. In Guernica there is a screaming woman holding her dead baby, her tongue a dagger pointing at heaven. The baby's face is a cartoon of death. Picasso followed Guernica with his series of Weeping Woman paintings in which the woman's mourning continues, without end. She cries and cries. In different versions the Weeping Woman's face is crushed to an abject lump, twisted out of recognition.'

What is the value of your Hamilton Collection Precious Moments Bible Story plates?
Placing value on this kind of collectible can be a challenge. A good place to start is eBay. Drop by and see what they are fetching there. It has long been a contention that Hamilton collectibles are not worth what was paid for them, and in most cases this is true. There are some dealers in these items on the web, and they can be found with a search. Certainly the price they sell them for is nothing close to what they might offer for them - if they even agree to purchase them. Good luck.

How much are Bob Ross oil paintings worth?
At the risk of being flip, it depends on what you are willing to pay. I have an original Bob Ross painting and have researched the internet for hours. I have seen reports of value from $8,500 to $250. i inquired with one of the art valuation websites and they said mine was worth $200 to $250 because he was so prolific and his style was so redundant. There are two on ebay right now asking $5000 and $2500. It has been several days and no bids. So I say mine is worth $9000 and that is as accurate as I have seen so far. Somehow I doubt there is anybody out there that wants buy it.
