Bonjour Pont-Aven: four months of self discovery

I recently graduated from Syracuse University, and am now on my path to figuring out what I would like to do next. I graduated with a major in painting and minor in entrepreneurship and now do not know what I would like to apply myself to. I am moving to France to go to the Pont-Aven School of Contemporary Art for one semester as a post grad. Please follow me along my journey of self discovery and gaining of knowledge leading to ideas for future endeavors.

its been way to long!

new style of work.. i am exploring.. taking my images i have been saving and using them in a new way.. exploring repition, layering and shadows. I am also exploring the human figure, and interaction between humans. these are all studies i have been working on, and working over.

try 1

try 2

try 3

exploring the relationship of the figure and interaction

exploring using olive oil as a medium

trying to mix the two ideas together.. this one came from a dream where bens head was underneath some legs

first large piece on canvas.. not done

ben and jess take on me

trying to make my own paper to paint on, turned out really cool!

PARIS AND LONDON, FAVORITE ART and INSPERATION

all art in pictures from below are from Pompidou, Tate Britan, Tate Modern and Frieze Art Fair

i have this new idea that has to do with lights and the lighting of the room.. it came to me when viewing these different light projects

these two sculptures are made with toys glued together by Miki De Saint Phalle

Gillian Ayres

i love everything about Gillians work in the Tate it is energetic and colorful.

Roger Hilton

i relate this piece to a figure and love the simplicity of it and gesture

Dexter Dalwood

the idea of line, and combining different images is interesting to me and i think he did it very well

i really liked the movement in this painting

picasso

i love this piece, it was see through and had two layers of material

i love the idea of moving to sculpture maybe and this was a very fluid representation of movement to me

looks like wandas long lost brother

when i was young i used to have a friend who would tell me i looked great even when i looked horrible.. this made me think of her and laugh

i liked this because it was a large piece of a figure without being in a square

this is a close up of a peice that was all done with little wholes that the paint bleed threw, i loved the idea

this is my favorite painting i saw the whole time Peter Linde Busk

lady with vagians all over her.. had a matching purse

jess and michelle where twins one day

Maddie and i, and beautiful day in Paris
