Post the act (the product)

Flesh colored spandex over metal with a florescent light. Mostly 1/4 inch wire. It's 3 feet wide, about 3.5 feet long and the fabric goes to the ground. The picture sucks but there are parts that go in like orifices and crevices and whatnot... parts also stick out (around a foot from the wall in a few places). I'm not really happy with the pinning of the fabric yet so it still needs a few adjustments. But ya... I think I'm on to something. I'll put a better picture up soon.
btw that black square is not part of it

impatience might lead to creative solution

so I used gesso as a glue to stick peelings of paint onto some doves I painted. I realize that there is a 90% chance that these things are just going to peel off -- but since I don't normally work with forethought enough to do it right the first time, I'm curious to see what I come up with to keep them on... sewing? epoxy? massive sealant job over the whole canvas? or will what happens after they fall off be a whole new mess of interesting... fingers crossed....

Comments

I just set it up that we are emailed when someone posts a comment. I hope that a good adjustment :)

Ceci n'est pas une Stoodyo.

Stoodyo..? Pourquoi tu n'existe pas?

A place that does not exist is a place to meet. A place to share and talk and rant and yell. A place to come together again and inspire one another.

A Stoodyo where I share what I am doing in my corner.




Here is my new corner.



Just started this one.. it is only a background so far.



Here is a mosaic piece I am working on.



I love you guys and I am glad we have a new space to come together to share our ideas and view each others work.


I posted a blog about the Spurgeon if you want to see it. http://leannesargeant.blogspot.com/2009/09/goodbye-spurgeon.html



P.S. Nice dog drawing Valerie.

Dearest Tisa

This is a place for us to share what we're working on because it was great having a studio together-- and because now we're all working alone in our separate worlds.

We were in the studio alone, and with one or the other -- or all three. Imagine this blog as three corners that we can come and view any time. 

It's much easier for me to see your images here rather than on my phone but if you would like to not participate, we'll be sad for sure..........

(random dog drawing is for a laugh btw)

This is whats up (with me/ in relation to your location)

I've been working on all sorts of crazy stuff (some of which I already destroyed and did not photograph). But here are the few works I have photos of. The two white ones are part of a series of 8 embossed drawings. The odd man out was a play of perspective with an over head with a strip of sky and grass or earth. The other two are a part of the continuation of the drawing I did for the paper show. I want to try to do decisionless art (I see that in your art val) but ya, I don't know. This is odd (this whole blogging thing) I feel like I'm repeating myself. Leanne you better talk to me lady otherwise this seems kinda silly... Otherwise Val, I don't really understand the point of all of these different ways of communicating. Why couldn't this just be an email or a Facebook thing, or even a phone conversation like last night? It's odd all this ephmera... I don't really think its my style. Is this just for the sake of being able to communicate on our own terms and in a segregated environment? We are here to write about and look at art, yes? Or is this mock stoodyo? A place to vent and fuck about? Alright... truly I digress. But I'm still confused. And so this formatting! Love you guys. Miss you dearly.

Old Beginnings

This is where we use to play.

still working on the same painting

but i have a few ideas for two new ones -- just have to get the canvases ready. They will be smaller -- and of inanimate objects. Maybe those will be easier to let go of?

and yes that's the photo stuck to it.... :) I'm liking this one because there isn't a clear face -- which makes it not so much of a 'portrait' -- hopefully leaving some openness in. I think the only other one that's similar is the yellow dress painting -- my first one. There's no head :)

Image test

If you host your images elsewhere and put them in instead of using the little photo button you can change the width

do a < src= "url" width="600">

its good to be back together again:)

I will  be tweaking our layout to make it wider so that we can see our images better. Ha... off to work......................
