#378 Blind Click for larger image. This is Polyphemus the cyclops? blinded by Odysseus, the reference is from an image on Wikipedia I was just doodling but with this one I have a sense of resonance - simply that this is an odyssey, to do these sketches, and they do take me places. The blindness is getting to me. I have two dream posts (see category) one is called “blind” and another is similar, and is calling for glasses. What is that? I would love to have more clarity, certainty, solidity! ~ Technorati tags: art digital painting drawing sketch pastel digital art coloured pencils art tablet_pc tablet natural+media new+zealand sketchblog gicleeprint moleskine painter_X

#372 Mondo Click for larger image. Sitting in the café, thinking that the best thing to sketch would be people walking past, and I did a few, but this is the only one worth posting. It led me on to drawing people & there are a few more coming up. ~ Technorati tags: art digital painting drawing sketch pastel digital art coloured pencils art tablet_pc tablet natural+media new+zealand sketchblog gicleeprint moleskine painter_X

Paris
2007-02-16 15:27:30
Reading a book, A Writer’s Paris , by Eric Maisel I bought it because I like the sketches by Danny Gregory but the book is lovely in its tone. It is totally relevant for me at this moment - substitute sketching for writing (unless you call this writing) and Paris for anywhere and it is the right book for me now! It is helpful on such things as discipline & freedom, getting in the mood, how to get unstuck. I think Eric Maisel is a psychotherapist & he sounds like a good one to me! Ordered his book on San Francisco on Amazon. Sketches by Danny Gregory follow for Inspiration

#370 Tarzan Click for larger image. I hesitate to post this image, things can get kitchy enough around here, but, 1. I just read a great book. 2. The topic came up in a forum I am in. 3. I had the digital liquid ink pen in my hand & I could not help it. 4. It just occurred to me it would be fun to try an Elvis tag. 5. I am a fan! 6. Elvis looks like David, the classic artist subject. This one will be printed on pure purple velvet (at the right price). The book of course is Tarzan Presley, by Nigel Cox, a great book with a few legal constrains around it, out of print & selling now for hundreds of $ - I have one & just finished it. ~ This print is in a limited edition of 25 Giclée prints on A4, 21 cm x 29.7 cm archival paper.

#364 Cup Autopix 1 Click for larger image. I have not forgotten what I wrote in an earlier post: I can only do very few images in this blind way… I think developing a repertoire of these "autopix" will help my flow. I did the next four with my eyes shut, (not the fill just the outlines) of course I deleted God know how many, but slowly the ability to do these is in my hand, not my head. Quite liberating, and I think the freedom comes through. So the next few posts are more of this genre I call autopix. Oh, they are done in one line. Ctrl z should delete the thing in one go. ~ This print is in a limited edition of 25 Giclée prints on A4, 21 cm x 29.7 cm archival paper. The image size is 13 cm x 13 cm.

James McNeill Whistler

#363 Whistler Click for larger image. This is from a painting of him as a young man, which was then shown in a movie, made into a video, snapped off my TV with a camera and then sketched by me. Great video, great painter. Wikipedia on Whistler with plenty of images, including the one this sketch is from! I just noticed. But I used a photo I took!

Finalists here I always like seeing who gets this prize . Have been interested since the controversies in my childhood around the expressionist shift. The winner uses oil paint & wax. John Beard’s winning painting follows.

All over the place
2007-03-10 10:13:51
I have not posted sketches for a while. I have some stored up, not all that pleased with them, but I have been learning a lot. Learning to use Corel Painter IX, it is quite hard but I love mastering little things one step at a time. But that is not the main thing I am getting from this pause. I am looking at what I am doing. I am all over the place. On the one hand that is a challenge, get focussed. Narrow down. Build on what I have, sort, select and make more of themes and deepen them. On the other hand it is just right. I am all over the place. Not really a Kiwi, not really an Australian, not really Dutch. And I have just given up a psychological writing focus (that was a bit messy but needed attention) for this art project. Thousand Sketches is throwing everything I am doing into a bit of a crisis. So on many levels I am all over the place. That means there is congruity and authenticity and the project is working as a mirror. Just as it should. I am thinking I need to simp
