  1. Noice one seeks.

    I like the layered blacks on blacks feel.

    Looks far away.

     

    Maybe frames give your piece some sense of stability because they are so loose.

     

    HEY JOKER>>>>>>NEXT ASSIGNMENT PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  2. KOH i have things to say about your latest piece....

     

     

    Ha. I can't wait.

     

     

     

    "KOH you are a douchebag. Even though I usually like your art this will forever be the suckiest pile of dog vomint you have ever produced, even though I am a fan of your previous dog vomint. Besides, you are lame and fuck you too!

     

    Your friend,

    Hevs. "

  3. Here's how I see it. It's not personal expression. It's not some ecclectic personality by a few people. It's an entire culture of "hey, let's be a shitty as we can be". It's driven by a shitty industry that doesn't give a rats ass about the people wearing it, other than thier money. Fuck all that shit. Fuck any of those super huge psuedo-cultures designed to keep people as ignorant as humanly possible.

  4. Poesia. i've used the golden rectangle theory alot since I draw alot of filligree and things like that. I wonder if you could have done a more minimalist version of that exact same piece. The fuscia pinkish color throws me off a bit. Am I right in assuming that it's an animal curled up in a cave like hole with it's tail coming out in the swoop of the spiral? If so, then I like it. It looks somewhat similar to Clive Barkers paintings. Lose, but moody, and possibly the middle part to some unknown weird story.

  5. I enjoy having my stuff critiqued. don't get me wrong. I'm just making the point that were, some of us doing things we aren't aren't in the practice of. Even if, and ESPECIALLY if we like the piece we've done, we should be getting torn up and broken down. It's the only way to really get any better.

    I appreciate the crits.

  6. Normally I am a huge fan of KOH. however this piece to me reads as unilaterally applying what you know (line) to something your less familiar with (absract form).

    theres a strange mix of stuff going on in this piece...

    • the tattoo influence- the pointillist style of shading
    • southwestern feel of the yellow- reads like adobe work/glaze to me.
    • the over all low contrast and grey value
    • Heavy black border, of inconsistent width.
    • materials

    and yet they all are things that are well with in your comfort zone they combine into a semi

    predictable product.

     

    Id like to see you work with a SHIT brush (bristles stick all which-a-way, from aggressive use and

    poor up keep) and non sharpened pencils. IN many ways this piece suffers from the opposite pitfalls as

    Harveys pieces; your over controlling your work. Which is cool and needed for most of what you do,

    tattoos and really anal line drawings, that are awesome btw. this piece however seems to have gotten

    away from you in the number of competing elements that dont resolve into a harmonious piece or into

    enough of a conflict to start a good internal dialog with in the elements themselves.

     

    in the end to me your ability to work abstractly is gonna center around your ability to relinquish

    control for a bit and allow your pieces to speak back to you in a creative dialog instead of forcing

    your will on it. Even your list of materials seems overly controlled; sort of like you pre-decided

    those were the things the would allow you to create an abstract work. Control control control. Let

    go luke.

     

     

     

    Totally agree. I mean...I was doing an exercise and didn't really expect it to come off. Just like anything I'm starting for the first time, or the forst time in a while, I like aspects of it. I'm not 100 percent sure about some of it, and I hate a bunch of it, but it was fun. I did learn a few things and maybe we should revisit some of these first few exercises in a few months when we've had some time really pushing and inspiring each other.

     

    I wonder what this stuff would look like then.

    Just as in tattooing imediately after I finished this I thought that if I did it again right now there would be like 10 things I'd do differently.

    Thanks for the crit.

  7. Joker, that thing is rediculous. Always with the little anomalous color.

     

    Seeks, FAIL!!!!;) Actually I really like it. Makes me want to go to camp Timber(ll).

     

    Peosia...did you actually mash up a cigar on that shit?

  8. Awesome work everone!.

     

    Poesia, thanks, I really tried to do something with that one.

     

    So is a landscape the next one?

    Due dates and rules please!!!

     

    This is fun!

  9. Sometimes its good to have something you can bond with your dad, grandad and friends with. You share in the loss and the win. And when theres such a big drought its nice to freak out and feel good about some well played games. Im not die hard but it's no different than being into writing and knowing who is from what crew and what era and all that. And writing doenst get you paid either.
