CIPHER_one Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 I don't think you can really discount that canvas as not being a canvas simply because you don't see any....I dunno, creativity involved, or whatever. Someone could very easily discount your work by just saying "it's just some random splotches of paint. There's no substance." But you can't make a simple blanket statement like that. **This is me playing devil's advocate. Because I agree with your opinion. I guess I just don't agree with how you stated it. Although I'm not sure I know of a better way...I'll think about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The-WiseOne Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 Originally posted by seeking@Apr 25 2005, 03:21 PM when judging advice, you have to view the advisor as well as their words. 'the wise one' paints hack ass cardboard canvases with shitty letters and played out techniques. of course he thinks a piece would look good on it, because it's what he would do. after he did it, he'd post a picture and we'd tell him to go back to the lab, he'd get mad, say we're assholes and the world would keep on turning. personally, i really dont even think that thing is worthy of really being a 'canvas' it's a background at best. i mean, no offense, but its some labels glued down with a mist of paint over it. theres really nothing to that. no composition, no thought, just glue sticks and thumbs. theres nothing wrong with that i guess, but theres also nothing 'right'. seeks/sorry, im being a dick today, sue me. Quoted post hahah you make me giggle.... i take good advice greatly, and i attempt to make art on regular canvas's to, i was just trying out cardboard.... look at the last pick i posted up.... but you do have some good points....... but isnt all canvas's just something either mounted or sprayed on.......either way all it is is just paint ontop of material....

seeking Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 cipher, i can do anything i want. ha. no, i know that 'art' is subjective...but only to a point IMO. if someone can realy 'connect' on some level with dudes piece, then more power to them, im just not seeing it, thats all. i'm very sick today, i have the flu.

MAGS156 Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 SO this isnt canvas, its on paper. I like paper better than canvas; i think papers more absorbent and i like that. i like paper that will eat what you put on it. I also am very interested in the process of creating pictures. Much of the time i enjoy unfinished works more than finished; the unfinished gives me insight into the artist process and i feel like i get a better idea about who or what the artist is. So in the vein I started documenting the stages of drawing and paintings i do ( graff too when i can get away with it, [read legal eagle shit]). This particular set of drawings was done after i had the displeasure of hear DJ spooky give a talk (last fall). What i took from that talk was that there was still a lot of power in the remix (a really broad definition, Duchamp to HIP-hop) and that DJ spooky is an IDIOT; which i wont get into here. Suffice it to say I tried to combine the elements of a drawing and continue to reuse and change them with in the same drawing. The final version of this was an interactive Macromedia Director file, that in the end had sound and allowed the viewer/user to remix the final state of the drawing with all of the other states of the drawing so they could make there own composition form mine. In the end there were 144(changeable bits)*38 (stages of the drawing). So what you see here is more of just a build test animating the drawings process and changes over time. _________________________________________________________________________________ <embed src="http://www.heavylox.com/webshow/TEST.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#636656" width="657" height="545" name="TEST" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" /> _________________________________________________________________________________ I added, play pause, and stop buttons to aid in viewing.

Quoted post yea, thanks for the advice, my proportions are so skewered, even when i have a model in front of me ive yet to fully capture it. yea i know about shadows, good tip ill add some, most of my work has it but i always miss it at times. Right now im venturing into the world of trying to imitate the techniques of the masters, it's difficult and so time consuming, as opposed to these thrown together art peices, to us a work that takes 3 weeks might seem long, but in reality that's short compared to how the masters used to take, 18 months at times, 3 years even on some, paitence is key and that's what's alluding (sp?) most every artist in this dy and age.
