Recent Junk

Been millin around lately trying out different things. I'll post some of it later. In the mean time here's some photos.

New Stuff For the End of school

3 Minute Performance Piece

Here is a video of an installation I made for my Time Studio class. It's a projection of a video/music I made onto hanging, layered sheets of mylar that have dried white acrylic paint spread on the surface.

I got the idea when I came across the artist David Spriggs (http://www.davidspriggs.com/index.html). He has managed to created many intruiging 3D pieces using mylar and acrylic. I thought the idea was exciting so I took the idea of layered transparencies and instead of trying to create a specific form I instead wanted to create an atmosphere.

The idea was to use the mylar as projection screens where different layers would catch various densities of light and create a 3D form of the moving paint that was projected on it. I was very happy with how it turned out and am interested in exploring it more in the future.



Here is how it looks in the light.

Self Portrait

This week I seem to be dealing a lot with self portraits. Here's basically what I've been working on.

Walked around and took these the other day.

More photographs

my classes this semester aren't all that exciting, so here's more photos

Photography

A little somethin somethin besides painting and drawing, I actually take more pictures than I paint, so I figured maybe it's something I can share with the people interested in my work. I'll try and post a photo every couple days since other works don't get posted as often.

Today I'll post a few old and new favorites just to give it a jump start.


At the state capital.


In the cemetery.


On the dragon's back.


At the police station.


At the top of a waterfall.

Just as a note, I don't manipulate the photos other than use different settings on the camera or cropping.

New paintings

Here's some paintings I did over the holiday break. They're all pretty small, which is the way I prefer to work instead of huge 5'x3' paintings. Will post a couple more in a few days.
