I must admit the box itself is indeed a work of art. Don't let anyone from the MFA or academia see it, it will be confiscated as a state treasure and will be expounded on ad infinitum as high end contemporary art cleverly made up in the form of an artists kit. The oppositional yet complementary "L" motif is sympolic of logic and loquaciousness, important idions in modern contemporary art circles. The paint, as can be seen from the care in its application, is more than just casual smudging, it is painstakingly applied with a minute brush to, obviously, with a small representation from each masterwork all co-related in a very decorative pattern that defies description, yet is clearly a comment on the state of mankind and his journey through time. ItMoreover, the bottom and the top of the container are not of the same vintage and therefore the top has been completed by the artist many times and has been replaced to support new Opii. WillEK
I am a professional landscape painter.I make my living painting pictures.
In my blog I show my paintings, offer some of the techniques, ideas and methods I have learned over the years, and talk about how to make a living as an artist. I present some essays on painting, art, and hopefully amuse you some at the same time. I will also tell you about many of the fine painters I have known over the years and some who died long ago. I talk about my training in the studios of R.H.Ives Gammell and about the many artists who have mentored me along the way. I also try to explain what I THINK makes a good painting, and how to go about making one.
If you have just found this blog, I suggest you go back to the earliest posts and read forward. It is now an enormous archive of about a thousand posts. The posts start out with the most basic information and progress towards the more philosophical side of painting. I hope you will find it useful!
