Updates of “Never Knowing’

6 12 2010

Final oil painting in an unfinished state.

A unique style of work, accommodates for a close up view as-well as enjoying taking a step back.Could be described as a volcano sky or prophase a black heaven.Yet the true meaning will stay with the artist, as word can not always describe the dedication behind ones lost.

Makeup for the Bride

2 10 2010

I was asked to do the wedding makeup for a friend’s aunt. Here I have tried to give a choice by applying different shades and techniques to either side of the face. On the (bride’s) right there is a light brown eye-shadow and a purple shade on the left. The eyebrow pencil on the left is thicker and higher up the face as my client needed corrective make up and also had skin pigments. The shade of lipstick is a brighter, more lurid red on the right side of the mouth.

‘Photoshop Portrait’

This wasn’t created by me but by a dear friend (Tristan Plowman). It is a portrait of his late mother that really reflects her benevolent nature.

Unfinished

31 08 2010

As with a lot of my work, I was very devoted to using red at the time of this painting.  Red is a colour that is universally recognised as representing strong emotions such as anger, love, passion and danger. It is an abstraction of these things, bypassing our thought processes and tapping into our primal instincts. Although I hate to categorise art, this could be called an ‘action painting’ as it was created purely in the physical sense without any forethought of concepts or ideas.

To reinforce the physicality of my approach, I used my hands to make shapes and visual ‘gestures’ that could translate somehow differently to the canvas. As my paintings go, this one has been left relatively bare. They say that a work of art is never finished but only abandoned. I’m not yet sure whether this has been abandoned, as I may attempt to complete it, but at the moment it exists as something that was created completely free of conscious thought.
