Colganology: Justyna Kopania - Her paint bills must be enormous

http://colganology.blogspot.com/2015/02/justyna-kopania-her-paint-bills-must-be.html

Thursday, 26 February 2015. Justyna Kopania - Her paint bills must be enormous. I wish I could paint like Polish artist Justyna Kopania. The paint is applied so thickly and so freely and yet the finished result is a beautifully considered piece every time. I wish I could be that expressive and loose in my work. I'm altogether too rigid. Maybe I should get the palette knives out and have a play? You can see more over on Saatchi Art. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Follow my Blog by Email.

Colganology: Marginalia Madness

http://colganology.blogspot.com/2015/02/marginalia-madness.html

Thursday, 26 February 2015. Last year I was at the Edinburgh Festival and made a point of going to watch Holly Walsh's show. It sparked an interest in me too and I've been seeking it out ever since. Sometimes they wrote poems and prayers. Other times they drew pictures, and a few were hilariously rude and imaginative. Like this knight fighting a snail . And this guy squaring up to a savage rabbit. But now let's sink deeper into the marginalia mire. Oh look! Here's some monkey sodomy . The Skeptical (ex) ...

Colganology: February 2015

http://colganology.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html

Saturday, 28 February 2015. Columbus - Step by Step. Here's another new painting I've done. It was inspired by a book called Flotsametrics and the Floating World. By scientists Curtis Ebbesmeyer and Eric Scigliano. Anyway, I thought it would be great to do a painting that captures the loneliness of the long-distance rubber duckie. And, to give a sense of space, I figured I'd need a big canvas to convey the smallness of the duck. So, I picked a 24" by 30" by 3/4" box canvas and 'got rid of the white'.

Wednesday, 30 April 2014. This is a fantastic idea. Or kintsukuroi) is a Japanese method for repairing broken ceramics with a special lacquer mixed with gold, silver, or platinum. The philosophy behind the technique is to recognize the history of the object and to visibly incorporate the repair into the new piece instead of disguising it. The process usually results in something more beautiful than the original. If you’d like to try the technique yourself, Humade. And there's a how to video guide here:.
