Keep On Trucking: May 2014
http://amanandhisbeervan.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 8, 2014. The Work is Ready to Hang. Here are a few images of older works with new hardware to improve their general appearance. This level of finishing is one of the tasks that I have been forcing myself to complete, part of my internalization of some of my art practice. I'll post some more images soon after I have the show up. I think that this one will prove to be one of my best shows as of yet. Wednesday, May 7, 2014. Some Thoughts on Working, Websites, and Staying Afloat. I particularly...

Keep On Trucking: January 2015
http://amanandhisbeervan.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 16, 2015. The Contradiction is the Point. I am a little lost as to how to proceed with the piece I started working on in studio today. The current state of the piece is good. I am very pleased with where it has ended up. I chose to work through the suspicion that what I had in mind was an incomplete thought (painting.). I fear that being too conservative might make the piece feel a bit constipated but if I do not plan the piece out at all there is a good chance of over working it. I a...

Keep On Trucking: April 2014
http://amanandhisbeervan.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 23, 2014. Stuart Davis at Dawn, Grids All Over, and Time Slipping by the wayside. It was necessary reading for the morning. When I am troubled about what it is that I should be doing, it is nice to get that little ray of focus. It also made me wonder if there was any way that I was really including emotion in my grid pieces. Are they a painting on their own or merely a ground? Would I show them by themselves or is it necessary to hang work over them? Thursday, April 17, 2014. I started p...

Keep On Trucking: November 2014
http://amanandhisbeervan.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 1, 2014. The Remains of the Day. I don't read with any great speed. I am prone to filling my schedule with art projects and leaving myself exhausted, trying to muster a little bit more effort to keep working. Tonight, after nearly a week of dragging my feet, I finished Ishiguro's The Remains of the Day. Here are a few of the drawings which I started using those photos. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Sunday, August 31, 2014. Studio Cleaning and Teaching Once Again. Today I cleaned my studio. I cleaned my studio today and I cleaned my head again too. Labels: Cleaning. Studio. Monday, August 18, 2014. Camus and the End. It is time to run down the stairs of my parapet and return home to the comfort of my wife's embrace. Tomorrow I shall climb again. Friday, August 15, 2014.

Keep On Trucking: June 2014

Wednesday, June 25, 2014. The Artist's Talk - A Rough Draft. I've determined that I will share with you the rough draft of my notes for my artist talk on Friday. I have been under the assumption that nothing has changed in me since before graduate school for the longest time, but I now realize that this is a fallacy. My work has changed, as too, my voice has changed. Let me know what you think of the notes. I had my answers, for now at least. I have come as far as I have come. Wednesday, June 18, 2014.

Thursday, April 2, 2015. Two Cabins, Hermeticism, Jack London and a Romantic Ideal of Adventure. As I was reading an article. I yearn for both settings. I yearn for the danger and I yearn for my work. I am at once Van Weyden and Wolf Larsen. I am Nick Carraway on his ledge in New York city, experiencing life both within myself and witnessing myself.
