Arts Across 2006

First post! Oh yes...

Welcome to my blog that has only something remotely to do with photography and writing - this one is actually about art, which may or may not include the elements of writing and photography (and vice versa).

The next project I'm on is exhibiting at Arts Across 2006 - and this is where this blog comes in.The thing is that I will have to check up on things that I don't know will be published as a written piece the way the material in The Draft Processor would. What I write in this blog, The Artsy Fart, might end up in a pamphlet, a brochure, or by the side of one of the pieces I have to make.

The long and the short of it, I have come up with two different crossover projects:
  • Photography/drawing/painting
    Grasping an idea out of the air in desperation, I got the idea of taking one of my recent photographs and paint a cross over it. So litterally, it's a crossover piece. Now I also want to take it onwards and use paint on other pictures.
  • Music/drawing
    Getting inspiration from another picture (a dove on a page of a book in Russian), I got the idea of an angel drawn on a sheet of music. My mind wandered and landed on Magnolia Maize Handly, a little girl who died from SUDC (Sudden Unexplained Death in Children), just barely 2 years old. I have already researched for pictures of the magnolia flower and drafted one drawing, a magnolia flower on a sheet of music from Valse des Anges.

So, my plan is to:

  • Make sketches and actual drawings of Maggie and magnolia flowers on sheet music.
  • Research a little more on magnolia flowers and write a paragraf or two about them.
  • Check up on SUDC and write a paragraph or two about it.
  • Print out the photographs I'll be painting on and paint on them.
  • Perhaps research on Islands Brygge and write a paragraph or two about it.

Good Gracious... And just barely a week to get it done...
