Hey everyone;
So Apple announced this week their new line of phones and a new watch…I’ll probably be one of the masses to get the new phone, but will definitely pass on the watch… I like my old watch… besides how much more connectivity does one need?… I always thought living like the “Jetsons” was going to be cool… now I am drawing the line….I’ll just settle for Georges car, lol…… other than that… its old school for me…. Like technology art has made some amazing progress… from simple improved and safer products, to digital imaging, creative reproduction, lighting, engineering, filmmaking, CGI, digitally remastering, enhanced pixelated performance…. the list goes on and on…. but for me with all the advancements it still comes back to the basics…. keeping it old school…. this is clearly seen in the assimilation of my work… now its important for me to maintain this approach… I am now making almost 100% of my canvas’s by hand… from choosing the wood, to stapling the canvas, to gesso, and then finally the paint or glue…. keeping it old school adds to the overall idea of original…. and it allows me to have a strong connection with all my creations….. its a slower process for sure, but if your like me, I think you’ll agree going old school is great…..
Have a great week everyone… new work out shortly….
talk to you soon…
………….peace
