this totally reminds me of a cubicle... im really liking your work, its very urban yet laid back and... i dunno im bad at explaining things but i can definitely see the 'radiohead style' that someone pointed out.

damn.. your getting a bunch of +favs from me tonight!

this is so clean a pretty. I wish it was zoomed in so that you cannot see the wall though

haha none at all... the lines are distracting! perhaps if it where just a plain wall... but even then a picture of just the canvas calls more attention

I agree with the radiohead comment. that industrial plan look. yours evokes the idea of an aerial architectural drawing of a development -- several buildings perhaps. I like the pastel-y earth tones.

not much good at critique-ing paintings, but I like it...
nice and minimal, in respect to the colours aswell
like the dot textures where the numbers are

makes me think of a flow of gritty art through some urban streets, with some people taking notice and others not
its cool

thx, man. I appreciate any comments at all. I think in incomplete sentences, so don't worry :]

fredfree [2005-06-23 00:25:48 +0000 UTC]

it's like a quiet cacophony, if that's possible. i feel like i'm looking at a bunch of thought processes overlapping and juxtapositioning in funky ways. it's cool. what aspect of it makes you not sure what to think? and where in allston?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

erkonom In reply to fredfree [2005-06-23 12:01:25 +0000 UTC]

yeah, I feel like a lot of my paintings are abstractions of thought processes, but not sure if that's alwaysclear. I really don't know what I do sometimes errr most of the time...I guess I'm not sure if it's done, I didn't want to overwork it so I posted it here to make me stop working on it, for now :]

but anyways the show's at the Reel Bar, across from the Fire Station, I'd love it if you could make it, I'm finishing up the flyers now... do you have an email I could send a flyer to? thx-erik

fredfree In reply to erkonom [2005-06-23 14:25:01 +0000 UTC]

i think i know that feeling! if you're showing or emphasizing process in anyway it's even harder i think to know where that ends and becomes something else.


i would love to. i can't make it the first week though because we are heading out on a weeklong roadtrip/vacation beginning on the 2nd. but i definitely want to stop in when we get back. cool, send the flyer here: fredfreeland@earthlink.net
thanks. hope it goes well!

and if you get a chance, the work will be up from June 30 thru July 7th
....time to go stare at paintings/pull my hair out

hey thanks - that humidity we had a week and a half ago sucked in a big way didn't it.

great. we'll try and get over there before we take off.

erkonom In reply to fredfree [2005-06-23 18:55:39 +0000 UTC]

i know, that humidity was insane, it was 85 the other day and it didn't seem bad at all, compared to before.

are you staying in New England for your trip? if you're camping at all , beware of the RVs (they're huge)

we're heading to philly and DC and we're not camping anyway, but i would have to agree!
