Chaotic Clouds of Color

Chaotic clouds of colorTurned on the telly machine and listened to that noise while I put watercolors on the page. I feel like I am going to find my next series soon and then I’ll be putting the work on canvas, until then I will be happy to continue these efforts in the lab.

Beach

Beach

Several months ago, I started a project that involved blowing up an image that was snapped in South Australia on the beach. The pixelated image was slowly having the pixels replaced by color stacks of cardboard squares. By slowly, I mean to suggest that glaciers were moving faster than this project. The idea is still appealing but I think that base needs to be more sturdy than the cardboard that I was using. (Sidenote: what is it with me and cardboard? I mean really can’t I find a more, um, upscale medium to paint upon?)

So yesterday, I gave up.

Today, I decided that the bits that were glued to the board would look nice with some red, so I looked up the chinese characters for beach and painted them in red. Then I thought the sand needed to be included in the picture too, so I took some of the squares and glued them on and painted them yellow and BOOM! you’ve got a new image! Fun and done!

The Soul & The Bishop

The Soul & The BishopExploring a deeper connection to spiritual aspects of life while trying to keep a festive and joyful attitude about me yields some interesting results. I am quite pleased with the technical progress as well as the overall composition however it seems like there is something that still needs to be included; maybe someone can offer some suggestions.

Demise untrue

It’s been over a month since the last posting on this site. It has not been over a month since I did any work. Me and my entourage have been busy, traveling and yes, making art. Here are some of the recent things that have happened.

From the small Moleskine:

foresty

Trees marching in formation of a flying wedge, appear to break through the wall of ugly that reality throws up too often.

Washington Square Park

Sitting in Washington Square Park on a sunny summer afternoon yielded a lovely vision of joy and peace.

Lake and Mountains

Flying in aplane and the landscape below unfolded a vision of mountains rising up froom the bottom of a lake.

Mountains come closer

Getting closer and closer to the mountains that exist just on the horizon.

Looming Mountains

Mountains just out of easy reach, hanging out and waiting, beckoning for one to go get them.

I have some other works that need to be reported, but this will have to do for now.
