The guy's having fun with his art, and all I see on here, for the most part, is a bunch of art snobs. Don't take yourself too seriously.

whistler, kathe kollwitz, Carriere, twachtman on and on. Futurism, dada, and from then on it's been a downhill spiral. I guess, im on a different page though. I can handle some installations and some ephemeral art especially when it gives back. But I speak on painting, and I don't understand what is original and what is not, everything is original at a micro level and its all degrees and levels. I suppose we are both right, because this is a can of worms, what are we even speaking on.

Ok, well I find those all the same. Painting and drawing is a visual language to me. Modern art has opened up great possibilities, but I love art. That is I love great painting which speaks to the soul, which has visual appeal and which is a great creation. So mostly know, I don't like concept trumping technique, that's for people who can't draw. Not to mention great work has concept anyway. Excluding most academic schools. Early modern I very much like, courbet, degas, monet, munch..

Of course you do, and it make sense but hes using a subtractive technique like removing charcoal with an eraser or paint with turp, it's just that he has to be more delicate. But it really doesn't matter what you work with, the result is what matters, and this method costs him proportional errors and good tone ranges. Not to mention it doesn't last very long, where is the motivation then other than hobby.

Mann I said change of surface, techniques not evolvement in way of painting. I think modern art has done a lot in expanding creativity in both original techniques and materials artists work with. You're no modern art fan then?

I find it much easier to paint with brush, pencil or camera then this. Because I have more control and surface is easier. The paint on the surface won't fly away like sand does!

I was amazed too at this guy beating a cardboard box and making noises, so we should buy his amazing cd and call it the high speed growth of music. Except no one will listen because it's boring and painful, and will go back to their everyday life with the understanding that just because something is done in a primitive or offbeat way doesn't make it amazing. This is in a nutshell, post modern art and what it has done. How does that promote growth. Largest population, darkest ages of art.

The techniques are not harder, they are easier if anything. And this here isn't a new technique. It's just dry pigment removed from glass.

Charcoal, graphite, and paint can all be worked into subtractively as well with very similar degrees of difficulty, that is the ability to control the surface. This is nothing new or amazing, and it doesn't make his work better than anyone else. The fact that a story was ran on this just shows how sadly people have been left in the dark after the middle class chose low kitsch and schools went avant garde.

I wondered how could art evolve itself even further? Well these days artists create art on different surfaces. The craziest shit i've seen. So modern art today has evolved by using different surfaces and backgrounds. At least it's cheap but the techniques however are harder. But at leat take a picture of it when it's reader. I admire their technique and patience.
