outsider art…
Recently, a friend introduced me to ‘outsider art in Japan’, a relatively new phenomenon in art here, and consequently the web started sending me messages and links about it, urging me to post something. So I guess I should. Without going into it too much, why not check out Miyako Yoshinaga Art Prospect Gallery in New York; they are currently showing the work of a few ‘outsider’ artists known for exhibiting internationally and there is also a link to their picasa photo page here. As for me, well, I really like it, and I hope to see more people getting involved in this kind of thing in the future.
flickr friday…on a saturday…
A strange wind swept me up and took me to the bar before I could update the news roll. So here is yesterday’s news today. Still fresh though. Check out Ryan Nault’s acrylic pieces on his photostream. The psychedelic colour, lunar themes and contrasting wilder-beast were all winners with me. Being a fan of all three it was hard to resist a wee post.
lost at e minor…
A big warm thanks to lost at e minor for posting a bit about my work on their illustration pages. They have a very thorough website that reports on everything from film to food, without missing anything in between…plus a slew of guest writers eager to share their newest interest come obsession. It’s sharp as razors so won’t you have a look?
Enter the dragon…
I saw the trailer for this film a little while back but didn’t post anything about it, but in my daily trawling it came up again today. Reading it as some cosmic omen (or simply a trailer link on the apple website) I thought it might be a good idea to share the good news. So let me just a add a little link for you here and let the rest happen naturally. Let it be said, I am very much looking forward to seeing this one. And a short p.s. this clip contains loud music and scenes of a suggestive nature…please be considerate of others in your workplace…
back to work…
I’m getting back to the studio today, after almost a month’s absence. With so many things going on outside of work and the studio in the last few months it just got less and less feasible to dedicate quality time to art and the news pages. Apologies. But check back soon over the next week or so as I get the generators moving again and everything back in order! It’s gonna be great!
