Kasimir Malevich: Black Square - 0 views

  • all art should be comforting, literal, narrative, perhaps somewhat erotic, and depict rationally classical articlesubtitleject matter, then your taste in art coincides quite easily with those of that noted German art connoisseur and would-be artist from the early twentieth century, Adolf Hitler.

      Elements of style, composition, anatomy, and even fantasy. THIS is what a sketchbook should look like!

      I agree - this is what a sketchbook should look like. He's building a catalog - a library of images, ideas. There's a hand, there's a foot - it's all there without a lot of editing. So - he's just allowing these things to happen. He's allowing this growth to occur probably before he can label it this or that. By the way - judging from the color of the paper and the rounded corners - he is undoubtedly drawing in a Moleskine®

    Artist's blog that I've been watching for a little over a year now. His digital stuff blew me away initially, but I prefer his pencilwork now, after seeing pages of his sketchbook

British Museum - Hoa Hakananai'a - 0 views

  •  
    Hoa Hakananai'a means "stolen or hidden friend" in the indigenous language of Rapa Nui. Hoa Hakananai'a is rare in that it is carved from basalt. The hardness of the basalt has maintained a lot of the decorative detail that has been lost from many of the other statues on Rapa Nui.

    The brand spankin' new website for my collaborative art studio. Take a few to check it out and let me know what you think!
  •  
    Rae - It's a well-made site, well organized. I keep thinking about that little whisker that appears on top of the frame and elsewhere throughout the site. At first I thought it was just ornament - just something to make the frame un-framelike. But the more I look at the rest of the work it seems like it is a recurring form. It appears as hair, beards, ears, horns, etc. What was the thought behind it?

Edvard Munch - Vampire - 0 views

  •  
    An unconventional representation of a vampire. There are no fangs, no wide-open eyes, no crosses and no blood. Just two figures hunched over in the darkness, one with it's mouth apparently at the neck of the other. More is implied than described.

    I believe someone picked this piece out as one of their favorites in an art magazine on the first day of class! (Erin, maybe?)
