The truth is... I have already begun my journey. The inevitable creation of a portfolio for school pushed me to invent art that I had never dreamed I would be able to produce. I will briefly break up these works into different schema.
The first is stencil. Stencil is a fantastic media to work with because although it is subtractive it can also be additive. The stencils I made in my portfolio were inspired by street artists and friends. Most of which were drawn from photographs then cut out with an exacto knife.
The second is pastel. Pastel was shown to me in an art class at school, but my fascination with it began one day spontaneously in my room. I was inspired by a small amount of paint which I found on my floor.
The third is technical. Boring graphite drawings, no fun.
The fourth is charcoal, which I completed in a class I took in SF.
The fifth is ceramic.
The sixth is word.

ReplyDeletehey man, great first blog.
ReplyDeleteYou should imbed photos when you mention a certain piece. You should also key us into the process of creating the pieces by taking pictures at certain defining points at your piece moves from a blank piece of paper to a finished painting,etc.
Set up a Google Analytics to see who/where/and how often people check out your blog. It's extremely addictive to check!
