Ink & Fill

#360 Ink & Fill
Click for larger image.

I have used mostly ArtRage 2 for my sketching. It has a great interface and does pastels and pencils well. I have now branched into Painter X, which is much more configurable. Has a poor interface but opens up great possibilities. The colour washes in the horse pictures are new, and “fill” is not available in Painter, so I have been playing with pen & fill. MInd you, basic MS Paint does ok with fill.

Harmony is a corny word but that is the experience of ddodling like this, I filddle & colours & shapes either have it or not.

I recently saw a video on Whistler, and he gave his images musical names, if music can be “abstract” why not art, that was his idea.

Harakeke is the Maori name for New Zealand flax. I have a category for it on the right, Flax, click that & you will see a wide variety of ways I have connected with this iconic plant.

This one was flowering but on display outside a shop called Harakeke in the new High street development in Christchurch.

I am pleased with the way my Ink & Wash style is evolving.

Using my Tablet PC as a moleskine sketchbook. When I had the initial moment of doing 1000 sketches I had something like this in my mind. Doing lots and developing a finesse.

Nature

#353 Nature
Click for larger image.

Pollock, when told he had to do more work from nature or he would get repetitive, said, “I am Nature”.

I did not really mean to do this one, but I just got carried away with strokes.

I post, partly because of the lovely idea I from a conversation with Edward about recapitulation. The sense I have is that I can’t really move on till I fully recapitulate the past. Duchamp did that.
