brought some of my old thoughts, and ideas from my other diary...
MY DEBUT
this one is made of instruments, like a trumpet and a tuba, and a drum... that kind of stuff... I have a lot of sheet music on it also... and a stand... it's kinda cool... i guess
BUST
this piece is made entirely of film cassetts and it's just going to be a bust... and I'm just going to use myself as the model... that's basicaly it.
GEORGE. AND THE GREAT ESCAPE
these two pieces are sculptures... George is kind of a self portrait type sculpture, which was done entirely w/transparent scotch tape... how's that for innovative! lol it's basically me crawling out of a wall... it has a hidden meaning that I don't really feal like getting into right this second, but... yeah and with the great escape, I want to make a bunch of different figures, using lots of different models... made of a bunch of different kinds of tapes... and I want them to be coming out of windows... and crawling around and stuff...
OIL PAINTINGS
these two will be landscapes... done w/oils... The titles are playing off of Monty Python's holy grail majig w/the knights who say "NI" and what not... you'll get it if you've seen the movie... lol
Shrubbery will be focused on two bushes... and in the background I want to have a small like... little ranch style house... but the painting w/have a lot of depth of field... so the house will be very blurry, just as everything else leading up to it, besides the two main bushes...
NI!!! will just be a cropped in oil painting of a bush... or two...
NIGHT MOVES
a fallow up water color to eternal dance... this time I'm not even sure if the body will be visible... maybe just the girls hair... just to keep the viewer guessing.
The Cradle Will Rock
just thought of a new painting, maybe water color... of a woman walking against the wind, in a snow storm... at night, in a big olden-days hoop skirt... y'know what I mean... like Bonnet, and bodice... and corset and everything... just walking against the wind during a snow storm, at night...
I want to call it The Cradle Will Rock... because when I think of wind I think of Rock-a-bye baby, and when the wind blows the cradle will rock...get it? I was thinking of maybe calling it When the Bow Breaks... but it just doesn't have that ring to it...
ETERNAL DANCE
I'm just now finishing up a water color painting that I've done of a girl who's drowned in an ocean... the thing is that you can't really tell that it's a girl's body floating there... because she's so far in the distance... and I made her ver abstract.
I don't think that I want people to know what it really is... I'm afraid of what they may think of me if they realize the morbid things that go on in my head.
DIAPHANOUS
so i've decided to do a new painting series called diaphanous (which would be where my screen name came from... because I haven't been able to get the concept off my mind since I first thought of it)
it involves three or four very graphic paintings of a young girl with anorexia. Each one will be very cropped in close... and I wan to use very vibrant, beautiful colors... to draw the viewer in.
i want the paintings to seem almost abstract at first glance. I want the bright colors to catch the viewers eye, (which also means that I'm going to have to work very hard at both making it attractive to the eye, and compositionally sound)...and then I think I want the viewer to be... disturbed once they realize what the painting is really about. That way not only is it a beautiful painting, but also... I guess just get's people thinking...
I dunno, I guess lately I've just kind of had an obsession with people with eating disorders... maybe it's because so many people have accused me of having one!!! LoL
