Art, thought, and critique by shane. Thursday, December 24, 2009. Again this year, I created a holiday card. And again, it featured a bug-eyed dog (a pug this time). I would have liked to post this earlier and somehow make it available to purchase but figured that would be an unfair spoiler to those who I created this for. If you do want one, we can arrange that! I was listening to A LOT of. While creating the card, so I figured I would throw some on the video. Sunday, December 13, 2009.

Art, thought, and critique by shane. Saturday, January 9, 2010. Synth Britannia is an amazing BBC documentary chronicling the rise of synth music from its experimental dystopian beginnings in the late 70's to the synth pop of the early 80's. There is an incredible amount of behind-the-scenes tales. I found it interesting how progressive and punk-like early synth musicians were. The genre of synth pop grew up alongside me in the 80's and play a crucial role in my views on art still today.

Art, thought, and critique by shane. Sunday, September 26, 2010. With the impending birth of my nephew Q, his parents invited me to create a painting for his room. I was excited at the idea. Here is his room:. Click for larger images. 3 12' x12' collage, acrylic on board. Maybe I should start taking commissions. ;). Bamboo earrings, at least two pair". This started out on a 5' x3' ink drawing. Then, I magically transported it onto the 6' x12' board. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Art, thought, and critique by shane. Sunday, March 27, 2011. Work vs. art. Art has once again been put on the backburner as real life money making has, unfortunately, shoved its way to the forefront. Here is a piece of news relevant to both art and work. Art is an important component of culture. It is not divorced from it but helps shape culture while culture shapes the art. In Maine the Governor Paul LePage has ordered a mural removed from the state's Department of Labor. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
