Monday is usually coding Monday. Today it was get in the cave and paint after sorting all the stuff and things. From 0945 to 1130 I was houseworking. Rocking. I had until 1400 to get work done. I made some rubbish and the paintings below were worked on.
Spíritum in art machina, oil on board.
Spíritum in art machina, oil on board, still a little more to do.
Untitled Generative work, 23 cm x 23 cm, oil on canvas.
This was generated with dice rolls, the dice rolls were time limited. The painting and rolls were completed together but were limited in time. I arbitrarily chose The Smashing Pumpkins Gish album and work for the first 7 songs on the album. Some more work is needed, but its mainly fills and the paint was too wet to work with at the time.
Tuesday
I couldn't think of a better title. Aardvark chaos would have been an interesting yet misleading title. Today involved no aardvarks, but a little of my favourite kind of chaos.
That right more generative art works.
Dice Generated watercolour, Lamp black over cadmium red, 10" x 7"
And a work in progress.
D12 generated pattern, Pencil on watercolour paper, 10" x 7"
The D12 means I used a 12 sided dice to calculate the variables. I'd love to have this on a larger scale. It's a work in progress so its got to be neatened and colour to be added (again through generated systems).
Bad day at the office part 2
I mentioned I had some work that went well earlier. Both pieces are a bit experimental. One generative and one abstract based on Piranesi's 'Imaginary Prisons'. I was trying to update and improve my Piranesi paintings, and I think that was part of the problem. My head and ideas are no longer bothered about the Piranesi work. I'm in the full flow of generative work and I should have stuck with that.
Thoatwell burnt with umbers. WIP
Dice generated painting No.2 (with data notation), 23cm x 23 cm, Oil on canvas.
Bad day at the office
I have almost finished one painting today, wrote of two paintings and have radically altered a third. I hate days like this where I work really hard at getting my ideas out and it all gets lost and falls apart.
Orange Horse - Soon to be blank painted over canvas.
Self portrait in blocks - RIP
Stuff and Guff
Soundcloud is where I put my sonic dreams. When I make them.
