I agree - the digital came out better. It was one of those paintings that you want to revisit and change things. Since I sold that oil a while back, I've been itching to redo it.

hee there,
I missed you! Hope you had a great summer, sounds great to me, but the last part of your journal really depresses me. How can you say something like that?!? Your art is truly unique and brilliant, so don't say that ever again!
See you soon,

seeing that you live in the backwoods, i would be very interested in any evidence you have, or may collect, that proves beyond a shadow of a doubt, the existence of bigfoot.

also, i hope that your water is free of ecoli, you don't get west nile this summer, and you are forever free from SARS. i love my country.

Desire, passion and the need to say something about ones self in a creative way is the catalyst for artistic pursuits. Even though I am the director of an art school “degrees are for burn passions” your on the right track my friend.

Hello Steph,

Maybe tight drawings are not your artistic language, as sketchy spontaneous work is not mine. Even though I work very tight and render with a draftsman’s eyes, I do not dismiss loose work at all. Actual I love the flow of line, the wonder of negative versus positive space, and the magic of what seems a “simple rendering” but it takes the eye of a very engaged artist to pull of. I feel it’s a poetic celebrating of the life around us. I equate my artistic language more like a novel.

I love all kinds of work that I could never do and in some ways have no interest in doing. You could very well draw in this tight manner and just hate the process that would be a sad thing and it would never ring true.

Every once in a while I do a sketch that’s good, natural and spontaneous but not when I “try” it just happens.

Take care

Armin

Thank you Steph, for the kind words about “Sandman”, I agree that the tight graphite drawings lets me play with abstraction, symbolism and experiment in deconstructive techniques, without the fundaments I would be relying on luck and luck alone. Still I feel like I hit one out of four, so I keep pulling up the chair, sharpening the pencil and once more I give it a shot. Thanks again

lol thanx for not going there! not quite sure what you meant by hand-drawn piece; please elaborate more. thank you for digging the initial breakdown roughs of my work.


"funny how everybody start saying the same thing after awhile. so I won't go there [...] It would be lovely to see a hand drawn piece from you. please please please? just cuz I really like your first, very "gesture" orientated drawings in your series always. comon, whada-yasay?

nice one sean."

Hey Steph!

It's fine about the hair thing. It's mine, I claim it! Sometimes it just doesn't pay to do too detailed of work. I do wish I'd noticed it and pulled it, but at this point, it's just plain funny!

Keep enjoying your DAy!!! Rob the Swash

swashbuckler [2003-06-17 16:06:11 +0000 UTC]

Hey Steph!

You found the hair! Dowh! Ouch and all that!! I think I left that when I planted it. I noticed after I posted, sort of hoped nobody else would see it! I ruined a bizarre "egg" shot because I accidentally dropped a hair in the mix....it wasn't as if I was going to eat the colorful goo, it was just for the picture, but that hair completely dropped me out of the competition. Maybe someday, I'll get a hair cut. Well, then again....

Have a great DAy! Rob the Swash

Thank you so much for your awesome and powerful words! I do and will carry on, but I will be even more cautious. I guess I was being naive. But not again. The saying goes hand in hand; get me once shame on you, get me twice shame on me.
Thank you Steph for your support. You have sparked my energy to leave the bad experiece behind and move on! Talk to you soon.

You just made my day.

To post an old drawing, one i didn''t like that much myself, and then get such warm comments is more than i deserve Your compliment gives me real confidence, just makes me blush for years i've struggled on hand-drawing, trying to improve myself with tears, blood etc and i stilll have a long way to go (with drawing in general) but it feels great to share it with fellow artists and get so much response.
So: Thank you! I'm grateful for the day i joined DA and met all you wonderful people
