Yesterday in painting class we had an experimentation day. We all had huge pieces of paper and acrylic house paint; quite a few colors to choose from actually. We were told to basically just do anything but to go around and observe what other people were doing; and then do those things. After I spilled red paint all over the studio and my bag I put up a piece of this black tarred roof paper and went at it. I only took a few photographs of the progress but were going to work on them some more. I think i got one to a fairly decent place ( which i don't have a picture of). After the paper paintings were going to make four dialectic pairs and from those one large painting. I'm looking forward to all that.
We looked at some abstract painters, heres a few that i liked:
Thomas Nozowski
Robert Ryman Terry Winters
In other news I would like to excitedly announce the launch of my good friend's (who is an AMAZING photographer) new and improved website! Go check it out at:
Here is some of her work, they are photographs taken at the house where we both live.
From her series: "The French House"
Good stuff. I hope the paint came off your bag.
