the.crooked Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 hey, on a pretty serious note, i'd love to have some art from the people i've talked about art with on here for a minute. Poesia, jangles, and joker (if you could indulge me) I'd love to know what you are doing smaller pieces for these days. I'm finally in a spot I can do something with art I purchase that's not from a thrift store. At any rate, if you'd so care to lemme know how ya'll have been pricing things, I'd really appreciate it. I'd love to commission something over the next couple months if I can afford it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joker Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 The.Crooked... This should be a simple question to answer but it's not. I'll just say that a 12"x12" piece of art would be about $150. However, I can't get too intricate in a 12"x12" space so something that small is usually very simple... kinda like one of these : Congrats on the mural project, Bojangles! I'll PM you now...

Joker Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 Yep, sold as a set. The photo is from an installation for a new furniture studio where the guy designs and builds all his own KD furniture. You order it, he builds it. He had an open studio and needed some artwork to show with his furniture and he liked my stuff. Nothing sold but I did get three commission pieces from that night, which was nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercer Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 It really doesn't fit in here with the rest of the thread, not dissing, I think abstract photography can be dope. Just saying, it's not in line with the rest of the work in here as far as mediums go unless you actually were to paint it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Continuing Trend Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 word, i gotcha. ill plop my next one in the your art thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joker Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 I wouldn't say it doesn't belong in here... I mean, Abstract is abstract... medium is irrelevant. I would say it seems very "gimmicky". The Rorschach effect always seems that way to me, though. I know there's a while genre dedicated to this style, in photography, but it has always felt cheap... to me. I wouldn't consider this abstract photography. However, this is just personal opinion. I'm more impressed by the abstract photography that really shows depth and life without the use of Photoshop.

Continuing Trend Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Yeah, I can see where your coming from. A lot of time symmetry is hit or miss. One day i'll really be diggin it, then the next i just wont. I'm still working on finding my nitch and experimenting with various things and mixed mediums. Thanks for your thoughts and opinions. This is the base for a painting i'm working on. Ill post up once i'm finished and can find the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

earl broclo ESQ Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 Bo Jeezy --the top one on the far right, have you posted that on here? I'm curious about a close up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KILZ FILLZ Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 Nice one Lox!. Here's mine. I spent a few hours drawing Joker rip-off's and feeling frustrated. I think the reason why I stoped even doing "abstract" stuff was because there was so little of it then in the graf world and what there was I was staring at all day long. It got stale and repetitive. So......int to trash they went. I thought since we were discussing going outside of graffiti for influences, and also the journey of abstracting a previously established form I used my particular graffiti lettering style, and for inspiration I've been all about 1940's and 50's animation lately and have collected a few books on the subject. I some Be-BBop Jazz on the turntable, and spent a few hours just soaking up a few particular artists work, and then reading about them and the people and things that influenced them. I realise this isn't all that "abstract" but I think it would be immature and irresponsible to try to achieve the finish product in an abstraction style the first go around. I thought that since it's an exercise, why not take those first few steps into something that could actually be. By basing it off of my version of a particular established regional style I had a solid foundation to abstract. By not looking at graff as the inspiration I had something else here as gas for my engine. I used Three different sized brushes for different effects like the thin, dotted lines in lots of the backgrounds of the UPA toons. For paint I used latex house paint, all of which were mistints with the exception of the black and red which are pantiers touch bucket latex. Also i used pieces of foam brushes as sponges to get a bit of that sponge brush background look on the early UPA cartoons. I hope you guys like it.I had fun. :eek: holy shit this is nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
