Now I’m not the most political person, but prior to all this election malarkey, I met a mate through a brother-in-law, and he mentioned he had this super cool Pixelstick and wanted to ‘light paint’ some political art, thought why not…
The PixelStick “A tool which allows timelapse photographers to get even more creative with light. The 2 metre device holds 200 coloured led’s that walk through any image the user asks it to, from detailed artwork to your own face.”
Heres how it works…
The idea was to create some real basic artwork based on individual character themes…
…then use the PixelStick to light paint infront of polling stations in and around London…
Didn’t know what to expect, but images turned out pretty sweet, all about the process and how the shot was executed…thinking some sweet ‘light graf’ pieces next…
So I’m back in full paint mode, POW!, exploring fresh concepts and running with past existing themes, adding abit more juice…
Will be moving into a fresh studio hopefully this week so that should help with work flow, and get shiz sorted in time for a solo show in March (venue TBC)
Here’s some shots of work in progress, and will be updating on the regs via Instagram @PINS_Artist
The live art event that was ‘Turner on the Terrace‘ to celebrate the release of the film Mr Turner , kicked off last week and what a sweet ‘Turn’ out it was!
Thought up by the lovely Myra of The Porterhouse Bar, organised by the sweet Jeannine of Sabalanglois, and fresh Turneresque art from the likes of Chris Burke, Ben Tallon, Magnus Irvin and myself…
Big thanks to everyone who came down and the super sweet guys who helped out Stuart and the rest of the Regents guys, the lovely waitresses, Little Peaks for their MMMM Mini Meringues and Mark Langlois…woof woof to Harold (Mark’s dog) who couldn’t make it…
And thats not all folks…
Due to the event being so successful, there will be live painting in front of the Porterhouse Pub every Sunday up til December with a range of artists getting their Turner on…exact times and artists TBC…will post up when I know what’s what…
I will be down this Saturday from 12-4pm painting yet another barrel inspired by Turner, so feel free to pass through and say elo…may bring some bits n bobs to sell too 🙂
So i’ve never been to Newcastle but my art has…sweet!
The lovely guys at Whitewall Galleries Newcastle will be giving local folk a taster of my donutty art by exhibiting a selection this weekend, so if about, feel free to pop down, have a cuppa, a donut or three, and soak up some sweet art…
