well, today is my topic-starting day, but i'd like have some conversation about pictorial arts here too :) i do a lot of painting anf the greatest result comes from good music (idm or trip hop) and painting experiences are really trippy for me. does anyone else have similar experiences? and yes, i do that sober. also, i'd like to know what artists have made the greatest influence to all you art-intrested people out there? |

music does influence my painting, never use drugs, idm/ambient is best for me. influences: pollock, rauchenburg (sp?), lichenstein... |

I have totally had psychedellic experiences while painting! Never really talked about it with anyone however. Painting I believe, along with composing music, constructing and a few other things, has the tendency to throw one back into an ancient Freudian state. we pick up a paint brush and *BAM*, we're back in our caves munching on wooly mammoth and experiencing one of the first forms of expression. at the time of ancient man, that transcendental moment of creating art had to be SO intense that it's no wonder one would feel a little strange when they start to rehash those memories. when our minds reach back that far, it would seem that we would become closer to that 'universal knowledge' that all of us have/had... not unlike a chemical aided psychedelic experience. |

i'm having computer issues....waaaaah i hope this comment goes through cos several have NOT. i have an art degree, my favourite artist is Vincent Van Gogh....his painting are like liquid light to me....so beautiful....sad.....tragic.....all at the SAME time. i would put my nose up to the glass to see his brush strokes....you could see the hair from the brush in some pieces. it was so fantastic it made me SHAKE!! different things influence me, usually it's something i SEE. i'm more a visual person so while music can be wonderful it doesn't inspire me to make something. it's usually something from nature! *crosses fingers this goes through* |

i don't know how to make art or anything (i don't even know how to draw anything right), but today, i had 'ass itch by korn in my head, and i drew little characters killing themselves, or hung, or shooting other characters, on the front of a white polaroid with a black permanent marker (i regret not having had a red one too, to draw the blood...), and on the back of the polaroid, i drew a cute little devil, with both breasts and a penis (already seen the devil represented like that somewhere), holding a little flower, and grinning. |

i'm doing my diploma of arts about the early finnish rockpaintings (which, of course, are much younger than the european ones because of the ice age) and it's one fantastic world in those! no chemical could ever give the same experience an intensive painting session does. i just moved to the countryside do i could concentrate in my painting. (but i also have to study a bit at the same time and thats not so nice). it's so sad that art isn't valued so highly nowadays than it was 100 years ago. i just bought the greatest painting of a young russian artist. it costed me a lot but it really makes one feel good to invest in this way. (ok thinking of all the records i would have gotten with the same money makes me just bit sad) |

or some other time i had 'undertow' by tool in my head, it was 3am or anything and i was becoming mad because i couldn't sleep, so i lit up the lamp, took a pen and drew something very messy on the page of my diary... i remember there was an alarm-clock, a corpse, some monster grinning, and some other stuff on the drawing, but it was really messy (besides when i draw things they're usually very small)... |

van gogh really is great :) i love his way of using color. it's like he makes the color talk or something. i haven't quite figured it out yet :) also, there are some great finnish symbolists i love, like hugo simberg (you've probably never even heard of him) |

Hans arp, Duchamp (Both Dadaists) and Dali. More recently Chagall. This is such a toughy I mean there's just so many good painters. I've only done a little painting, just like to support the subject :-) Good one neeta |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
thanks. dadaists are geniuses but i really can't put them on the same line as the rest of the artists of their time. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"look at my art" "looks like a piece of shit" "it is.." "oh you must be a dadaist" has anyone seen a dali in person? they're so freakin small!!!! |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
i have seen a few dalis. they were, well, lame. lamer than i thought they would be. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
yeah but theyre so freakin small! i never realized....oh well. |
||||||||

when i do artwork it's all in mechanical #2 pencil, but listening to idm while doin so yields some nice results =) |

www.arcanegraphics.com click on bdt. thats me and a few other people doing a design by theme. each person comes up with a theme and the others have to evolve off it, theres only three themes up, but more to come. as far as art on canvas is concerned, i've begun a series of fast drawn emotional pieces done as minimalistic as possible. my girlfriend asked me last night as i sketched her if i ever took my time and used detail, i said there was no time the moment would have been gone if i thought too hard about the sketch |

I paint or atleast i used to. Me and raimons (from this board) had art as our main course in school. It was a crappy education with crappy teachers. We learned nothing we didn't know before except for all the stuff about old boring artists. But atleast we got to be creative and both me and Raimons are the types that go nuts if we don't. Im gonna start painting again now when i have more time on my hands. Maybe i will show you sometime. |

well i used to be in a very good art school but i found that an oppressing and depressing enviroment. now i only get private evaluations of my art teacher. she comes to our house just to see my stuff. art schools might give a nice technical aid but i've never found them to give anything to my actual creativity. |

the movements that have made the greatest impression on my art are dadaism and post-impressionism, but i'm a fan of all eras of art from around the world. i'm most interested in modern art though. my favorite museum in america is the american visionary art museum (). it's art made by the insane or otherwise mentally "different". shockingly obsessive detail and strange concepts. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
great to see some many civilised people here :) thanks to you all :) i'd really like to visit the us to see those modern art museums. there was this great expedition in kiasma (the modern art museum of helsinki) called ars01. i went to several times and it really influenced me. i think the same expedition has been travelling around the world? |

[plug] i'm working on a web site where people can put their artwork up for visitors to see, like an electronic gallery. i wish everyone posting in this thread would put their stuff up there, it's really a lot of fun. any format is fine: digital, scanned paintings, sketches, photos, etc. [/plug] |

It doesn't help if you have bad teachers does it? I think teachers should have continous assessment, so that they teach effectively! |

Well first of all, hi, because I'm new to this board, and second, yes I absolutely agree that it is a trippy experience to paint while listening to music in the back. I am just working on a wallpainting and the music I play while painting is almost always "selected ambient works II". It has to be soothing music like that because I work with alot of detail. My influences come mainly from two dutch masters, "Hieronymus Bosch" and "Pieter Bruegel". After visiting the Bosch exposition in Rotterdam I've gotten some new respect for his works. |

Welcome to the board! =) Wall painting huh? sounds like fun. So what are you painting on the wall? |
||||||||
|

right now, I'm painting a desert scene with the djoser pyramid on the wall. I'm going to theme my bedroom by making it look like an Egyptian tomb. Yes,been there and it made some impression on me :p. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Holy shit! you have been there! It has always been kind of a dream of mine to go there and see the pyramids with my own eyes. I would sure like to see some photos of your painting when it is finished. Really cool idea making your bedroom look like a egyptian tomb. |

hmm...i think my favorite painter would have to be edward hopper... dali is great of course... i really like what ive seen by yves tanguy oh, and chuck close is really great.. i myself havent done much painting...yet at least.. ive only done one actually.. ive been really into photography lately though.. the only photographer that i would say has been influential to me, that i can think of of the top of my head would be uta barte (i think thats how you spell her name...) |

I dont get these pyscadellic sensations... with listening to music... but I do get some really trippy things happening when I sketch in public.... like in a coffee shop... or at a nightclub... on time i sketched while listening to hardcore at a club... and that was NUTS. There is this one book that I recently got.... the title is... GONZO ART. I havent really read it yet... I got it yesterday... but its the best art I have seen in a while... really raw... and in your face.... anyone else hear of this guy. OH AND MC ESCHER... crazy stuff |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'd have to say that Dali, H.R Giger and James Gleeson would have to be the biggest influences for me whilst studying fine arts, As for music I think that anything that effects your mood and gets into your head will effect what comes out on the canvas/paper, to see what I've done follow this link http://www.comcen.com.au/~tinkler/index2.html I'd much appreciate some feedback :) |

I'm a pretty good at drawing, like to draw cartoony things...go to www.phend.com to see a pic I did some 2 or so years ago :P don't have anything more recent sorry! My favourite artist is one of (the most?) celebrated artist in Japan, Yoshitaka Amano, his art is very romantic and is just very magical, brilliant stuff. Yoji Shinkawa is also an excellent artist... |
