Well I thought I ought to post something so that you know that I am actually working.
So these are the first 4 things that I'm working on.
Warming up so to speak. Nothing too complex. Just getting the flavour of my sketches down and trying to keep the freshness of my initial ideas on site. Thses are all pretty faithful to the sketches that I did at the time, but I have tried in each case to ramp up the volume, push the intensity. Create a little more depth. There's a figure in one of the windows too. There will be a hint of the spirit world running through many of my Savannah paintings like a barely noticable thread.
I love the painting in the second photo. I think you very much are ramping up the volume :)
ReplyDeleteVery Spooky. They have a Savannah feel.
ReplyDeleteMarvellous. Thanks. The Coca cola one is a problem because it just looks so Christmassy. But thats what I saw. So if I change the green to a cream which I'd like to do then its not a real piece of Savannah. So whats the point? But if I keep it green its ugly and noone will want it on their wall so I wont sell it....so whats the point?
ReplyDeleteThat's not true, I know tons of people who collect Coca Cola art. Someone will love it a lot, I promise!
ReplyDeleteI don't think the Coca-Cola piece looks Christmassy... You're crazy MBK.
ReplyDeleteIt doesnt anymore because I just painted a bunch of poo over it and now it looks about 50 years older and a lot better. I'll post it when I get back from Indiana later this week. Thanks. MBK
ReplyDeleteHaha, yay! Can't wait to see the poo splattered coke sign.
