My goal is to change the way you look at the world and art.

Cool artists of the week

I saw this work at Scope Asia last winter
Hiroshi Senju works with pure pigment on paper
some of these are flourescent.
Not much in the way of hand drawn images but very cool indeed

Deanna Petherbridge
Very interesting drawings
I will be using her book to teach intermediate - advanced drawing at the Armory

Gendron Jensen
He loves bones
Look at the scale!

Anchors in the torrent
of our fond regard,
the ecstatics have nothing
of ropes nor chains,
no thing, after all, to be held by,
other than unplanned gasps
gladdening each startled arrival.

See you monday!

"Drawing is the honesty of the art. There is no possibility of cheating. It is either good or bad," Salvador Dali

Salvador Dali what gesture!!! Value drawings.  The old masters called the use of value to show form, "Chiaorscuro." Usually low key compositions with intense lighting. (pretty hard to pull off with candles!) Rembrandt Self portrait in a window Kathe Kollwitz Picasso Self Portrait Georges Seurat Georges Seurat Gesture and the use of line as a scaffold Emanuela de Musis at the Academy of Realist Art This gorgeous work is done in the classical method. To my life drawing students, see how they build the "scaffolding." This method of teaching involves one year of intensive drawing from casts. Look how emotional these paintings and drawings have become by not "reporting" all of the facts. They are creating an illusion of reality, not reporting all of the details.

"Thought must come first" ~ Odd Nerdrum

"Moonfairy" Marcia @ CSMART Hour sketch Come join us Thursday evenings 6:30 - 8:30 Open studio ~ no instruction "You are about to die. There are two paintings on the wall, A Rembrandt and a Mondrian. which is the one you wish to see last? Live, love, and make art like that moment; as if you were about to die."~ Odd Nerdrum American Artist Magazine's October edition features an article about Odd Nerdrum. The article discusses Nerdrum's work as philosophical allegories. Always intriguing work with spiritual undertones. Reminiscent of Rembrandt. Nerdrum uses only four colors but he premixes the palette and tubes the colors he uses in his paintings. Curiously, he mixes blue from mars black and titanium white. Check out this magazine - October American Artist.  The Nerdrum Institute Beginning Drawing Class ~ Perspective and the Fifth perspective by Rudolf Stussi Very cool stuff.
