It's not the dumb main image, it's the one at the bottom. You can click on it for a slightly larger view. http://artists.iuma.com/IUMA/Bands/wmw/ Please ignore the rediculous written information. They are required fields and your account can get deleted if you put too few words which is dumb. |

When I drew it I was thinking as the right side as the top, sort of like a weird abstract human figure, witht he claw things being it's arms. |
||||||||
|

|
|
you want me to post the picture here? I like it... how did you draw it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That'd be cool the quality stayed the same. I just used a pencil and paper and imagination, and sort of the technique I mentioned in my "static tv" post. |

||||||||
|

|
|
heh heh, no, that's the one I said was stupid at the top. Thanks anyway. It's the other one. (it does post it really big though which is cool) |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
well the one you say its dumb I like it a lot! and in a much diferent style I like yours also |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
here it is... if you want it bigger I shall rotate it to a vertical position, and I didnt do this withoutyour permission cos a painting´s direction is very important |

When you sign up to iuma it's required that you have a picture to upload (and dumb artist bios and stuff) so I just uploaded that one, which is just a copy/paste thing I made for fun in the simple program "paint". |

whot da fuck thats pretty cool! |

Even the stupid one. |

but the geometric one is yours or not? the geometric one I love it. yours is very nice, but its like comparing autechre to aphex...totally diferent styles. yours reminds me of an artist from the canary islands : Cesar Manrique |
||||||||

|
|
you mean ? looks like a nice metal sign to me : ) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I made both of them, but the geometric one took a lot less thought and imagination. For the geometric one, I wanted to experiment quickly with the idea of using multiple textures at once (in this case obviously square thingies + line thingies) Since they are both made of the same black small pixels, they sort of blend into one weirder texture. Although it usually can work better than that. Also don't be fooled by the mirrored symmetry aesthetic. The only part I did is the top half and top left. The rest is just mirrored. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
A metal sign? hmm. that's a weird interpretation, almost as weird as "it looks like a peeled bannana". The textures probably didn't unite well in the geometric one because in the line texture, all the line angles are slanted and in the square texture, they all are at right angles up and down. I have about 15 or so drawings I think are as good as the bottom one on my page and a whole mess of other drawings that aren't as good. I stopped drawing quite abrubtly some time ago though. |

nice picture |

Nice. Not my style, but you seem to have a quite developed technique if you look at the shading. it looks very controlled. do you do any realistic drawings? i'm quite interested in them. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|

about the one you wanted to show us: for me its very like dali too... kind of a man-fish or fish-man and also like the fight of power |

I took a second look, and its not getting worse. Wery Gigeresque if i may say so. Cool! |

Can you tell us something about the format? a4? |

I hated realistic drawing and that's what most art classes were about. I kinda liked it as a recording of imagination that you can observe later. I'm just not interested in drawing real things. Technology has made doing that obsolete (why not take a picture, or project a picture on the wall and trace it?) I've drawn weird perverted faces and things, but they were imagined and not realistic. I guess I eventually mostly liked abstract things, but I havn't even drawn anything in a long time. I probably made this like 3-5 years ago (I keep such great track of time, probably because every day is the same) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what do you mean by format? I just used a pencil and a piece of typing paper. The actual drawing was only 1.5 times the size of the post nacmat did too (I draw really small- which makes sense since it limits the work you have to do) |

look at it vertical |

were you on drugs :0] |
||||||||
|
|

|

basically yes I was, but not chemical drugs. More like achieving an altered state of consciousness by staring at the top of your desk for 8 hours a day. And always being socially nervous. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Haha. yeah i know that. Well you answered my question, 1,5 times bigger. i find that impressive! wery nimble. But i can still tell you know your shit! the shading is excellent. I can understand why you hate realistic drawing, as it easily becomes soulless... but still, check out this guy! www.jdhillberry.com he scares me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
But the thing is: you learned realistic drawing. Thats important. Even tho it might not interest you, its the key to a good technique, and thereafter giving your pictures soul. its also the thing that impresses the chicks the most! |

lol |

Those are much better quality, but they're not imagined and weird. ex. onions and garlic: this makes me laugh. Who'd want a picture of onions and garlic?? The idea of a child in a puzzle who is putting it's own puzzle together is interesting and sort of paradoxal, but still the images are realistic. I havn't really checked out much historically popular art like dali and escher etc. |

really good. ..reminds me of the work of one . He has the archives of his 'comics' that appear in Seattle's The Stranger weekly... you should check them out. Seems like something that would be w M w style... but I'm not sure if you'll like it, you're kinda weird. But hey, maybe you will... |

I admire J.D Hilberry for the technique, but i find his motives and "feel" quite mediocore. He's not wery good at portraits, because i find it looks like a drawing, instead of something real. He lacks the magical element. i also find the motives to sentimental and "kitch" in some way. but still, fucking scary photorealistic tech! (i ordered the book by the way, i can give you feedback if its any good =)) BTW, you seem to take drawing rather seriusly.... what do you do for a living/what are you studying? I'm just an amateour with an extremely high interest myself, and i want to go to the design school and learn animation or illustration or something. something creative! unfortunately i cant show you some of my own work, as i have no scanner, but i havent created as many interesting works, as i have created photorealistic drawings etc. that the art schools want ( i am pretty good at this tho). phew that was long! |

those jim woodring drawings are pretty cool. Of these (numbered left to right) I like numbers 1,2,7,8 the most: http://www.jimwoodring.com/sketchbook.html I'm just an amateour too. I don't do any sort of art for a living.. and I'm not sure if I'd want to. It might be difficult to make money in an art field so be careful but good luck. |

yeah, a lot of people get frustrated that drawing classes make you draw things from observation, rather from your imagination.. their intention isnt making you learn how to draw still ife objects or nude models..just how to translate what you see on to paper more effectively once you have that skill, you can use the same techniques to transfer things from your mind but.. that last paragraph was somewhat irrelivent, judging by the drawing, you already seem to be a skilled draughtsman, m.. whereas a lot of the kids i hear complaining about not being able to draw from their imagination in classes arent. |

I can draw chapes that I can see that have difinative lines,.... so I can draw my hand in all wierd fucked up angles fine,... but can't draw things like socks that have suddel shading,... drawing is something I really want to get good at though... I just need more time to invest into it |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
i like your style alot :D litle advertising : glass-eater.deviantart.com yeah observation drawings are efrustrating, but if you're in the mood, you can turn it in your own style. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
actually, I briefly experimented making my own style with realistic drawing by combining odd things I saw in magazines etc together. That's pretty fun to do because you can make technically complicated nonsense. Thanks for the feedback. I need to check out deviant art more. It's kinda hard to understand the interface though. Is there a link with all the drawings specifically by you? I saw the turtle one but is there more? There was a grid on the bottom left with lots of pictures and the static tv one had some awesome stuff. |

I have always like all of your artwork but this thing with teeth..whew..luv it..right up my alley I love..bio-organic mutating growths... It actually reminds me of a few of the Exquisite Corpse sketches (that old stream of conscious word/sketch game that the surrealists used to play) http://www.exquisitecorpse.com/definition.html |

I think it almost has an Escher quality. Very cool! |

I think I'm going to read as much as I can about imagination to understand it better, and also try to actually use it seriously. The most powerful tool, by far, for processing and creating has been in our heads but I've stopped putting it to really good use. Proof is the richard d. james album since I believe he created those tracks in a dream like state, and dreams themselves. Autechre and aphex are good thinkers but they can work naturally with computers too. The computer is a very powerful augmentation of their imagination, especially aphex. (I'm not sure how much of autechre is the computer's themselves thinking.) Teach a computer to imagine abstract things, now that's an interesting idea. Thanks for looking. I'll check out that surrealist link fleaf. |

im surprised you havent looked more into the surrealists, m.. they were all about imagination and trying to depict things from it you would probably be well into edward gorey.. he was an illustrator/writer who made really bizarre books that seem like theyre for children, but often have sinister undertones here's one of his books online, its sort of his own version of the 'choose your own adventure' concept |

"M" : yes there is more glass-eater.deviantart.com the interface is strange, but not that hard to get, you see the turtle, there are little links to my gallery, its just written gallery... all my drawings : glass-eater.deviantart.com/thumbnails/ |
