Working on White – Blue Specimen Number 02 | Don't Call Me an Artist
http://dontcallmeanartist.com/working-on-white-blue-specimen-number-two
Don't Call Me an Artist. Working on White – Blue Specimen Number 02. Pardon the image quality. I took the shot with my iPhone. I was trying out a new variation of one of my techniques today, and came across a happy accident. I usually work on dark backgrounds, but since I was testing something new I didn't take the time to paint the canvas. I couldn't have been happier with the results. I'm going to do a whole run on white canvases! What do you think of the test? Tagged as: acrylic painting. It’s p...

Blue Hole Series | Don't Call Me an Artist
http://dontcallmeanartist.com/blue-hole-series
Don't Call Me an Artist. This is a short series, for now. I may add a few more too it. I continue to mess about with these techniques. It seems a bit less like 'painting' and more like a chemistry experiment. Oh well, it's fun. I really like the texture the canvas adds to the black in the two pieces below. Almost like that experiment in grade school when you run a magnet underneath a sheet of paper with metal filings on it. As it stands, this is a series of three. I might add a few more, however.

Graffiti Street Art – US Air Buffalo | Don't Call Me an Artist
http://dontcallmeanartist.com/graffiti-street-art-us-air-buffalo
Don't Call Me an Artist. Graffiti Street Art – US Air Buffalo. I found this large, and quite wonderful wheat pasted poster in San Francisco's SOMA district. It was on 9th St., between Mission and Minna, but it's since been painted over. I've noticed a handful of these starting to crop up around the city. I didn't notice a signature when I snapped the pics. Anyone have any idea who the artist is? Subscribe to comments on this post ). August 19th, 2010 - 16:02. Mail (will not be published) (required).

http://dontcallmeanartist.com/2010/07
Don't Call Me an Artist. I’m Getting Hung! And I Want YOU to Celebrate with Me. The title sounds kind of dirty huh? So, geez, holy effing hell, where have I been? I started a new job almost a month ago and have been all kinds of MIA as I readjust to the 9-5 life. And it IS a bit of a readjustment after having 3 months off to practically do nothing but pursue my art and relax. The opening is this Saturday, July 17th at Internos Wine Cafe. PS It's also my birthday party! Life While Living Out Of A Suitcase.

Don't Call Me an Artist - Part 2
http://dontcallmeanartist.com/page/2
Don't Call Me an Artist. Banksy Graffiti Street Art – No Trespassing. This was the fourth or fifth stencil with which Banksy graced San Francisco. As Banksy's work is often politically charged, there is some speculation that this piece is in response to the recently proposed Sit/Lie ordinance. In San Francisco. I don't feel the Sit/Lie ordinance is big enough to attract Banksy's attention, and think this work is more obviously commentary on the United States' immigration policy. I started freaking out la...

Compromising Artistic Vision for Money? | Don't Call Me an Artist

Don't Call Me an Artist. Compromising Artistic Vision for Money? Image courtesy of Tony.L.Wong. I ran my $100 Experiment. Past a fashion designer friend of mine in London to get an 'art as business' perspective. He responded with some food for thought. My favorite part: ". It is about finding the right audience it always is I think the glass of wine and a bit of cheese. We love art but not anything too scary and we’d love something for our second home that crowd.". Here's what he had to say:. Subscribe t...
