First Entry

Tue Sep 13, 2005, 7:06 PM
Hi, this is my temporary art picture storage space until I am done teaching myself html and webpages so I can have a real webpage.

Right now I'm just uploading lots of old art. I'm in the process of moving so my new art and everything is sort of packed away. There is also a huge chunk of art that has been given away/donated, so I am not even in possession of most my work. I may upload sketches I make day to day, but you'll have to wait till after I move to see the recent art.

The artwork in my gallery represents a disorganized (there's no way to rearrange the order of the pieces on Deviantart) array of pieces that I did since I was age 13 through now.

The majority of paintings are from a massive 30+ piece show that I did for a liberal arts honors program at college. They were thematically linked, exploring the concept of "Negative Space" as manifested in a wide range of literature, philosophically and figuratively (e.g. nonexistant implied characters).

The stuff in my gallery now are not fully representative of my current style.

One day I will get to putting up my real works, paintings that I did for myself, art done for art's sake, not the academia-assigned works and slapdash paintings I have in my gallery now.

Till then...


I advocate usage of the redefeined alphabet:

The paintings of A were of rock piles
The paintings of B were influenced by A
The paintings of C were of miracles flattened
The paintings of D were of cruise ships on fire
The paintings of E captured a lost transparence
The paintings of F contained a number of frozen animals
The paintings of G seemed always larger at night
The paintings of H announced the approach of the unreachable
The paintings of I completed themselves endlessly
The paintings of J stood in relation to nothing
The paintings of K were like parties under water
The paintings of L acknowledged the power of chance
The paintings of M offered readings of sunrise and smoke
The paintings of N left nothing to the imagination
The paintings of O contained elements of emptiness
The paintings of P were of babies swimming
The paintings of Q were of nudes having lunch
The paintings of R foretold the coming of midnight
The paintings of S seemed to shrink as they were looked at
The paintings of T were conceived in unison
The paintings of U referred to the Age of Vegetables
the paintings of V concealed their humble origins
The paintings of W hasted the end of self-portraiture
The paintings of X suggested a fury of something-or-other
The paintings of Y couldn't be looked at without music
The paintings of Z died of neglect the minute they were shown

~ Mark Strand, "Paintings"


And I really wish people would input better critique than just superficial "Ooh Pretty" comments....
