The Cliche Encounter: Comic

I just recently finished my comic that i was assigned by my art teacher. Below is the finished product.

This comic may be considered as a parody to all of those who find the redundant story of Romeo and Juliet a headache. If you’ll notice, some of the attendances at the ball are from very famous movies or photos. You have The Titanic, My Fair Lady, Katherine Hepburn, and The Kiss.  Or, it can be just another one of those comics about boy meets girl. Post your comments below.

A World Without Advertising

Advertising, oh yes we all know what the word means because we all know how it affects us. Though some choose to abandon the fact that it is boring at your mind slowly we all know the truth. You wouldn’t have that iPhone if not for advertisement. You probably wouldn’t have that underwear sold by a band of fruit. Or perhaps you have purchased jeans because the advertising wasn’t on the television or hanging on any wall, but because you noticed that back pocket stitching on a pair and realized a lot of people were wearing the same jeans from the same seller.

Now I propose a dilemma, a dilemma for all sellers, for all buyers, for the world already falling economy. A world with no advertising would be a world with no perception. A world of black and white. Models would be out of business. People would be bored at the mall not seeing the difference between stores and therefore not being drawn to any particular place to purchase things. 

Isn’t that the key to marketing? The goal is to target a certain group? To show the better more intensified you in a shirt you would wear if you could just get to the store to buy it. To show you taking it easy in front of that new television as a better more relaxed you. Oh, and you know you need that one phone that is basically a mini computer but without buttons.(in  my personal opinion, the most revolutionary thing we will have towards getting rid of plastic waste will be the revolution of touch screen.) we remain  transfixed by what we could have instead of what we already possess. Advertising feed off of that. Try to think for a minute what the world would be like without even the simplest bit of advertisement. No posters. Just take those away and you are berated with a movie that no one will see because they don’t know that it has even been made.  The television show you love so much right now, you never would have known existed if it were not for commercials. No commercials.

Many would love the thought of no interruptions during their television programs. Oh, but if you evaluate that you’ll find that those televisions programs would be fairly unknown without commercials promoting them. So, therefore you can conclude that people are completely in need of advertising or the economy itself would plummet considerably.

Though…..let’s think a moment of how many companies or aps or movies travel just by word of mouth anyhow. They are still circulated throughout the world with, “Hey man did you see that new AP. Its way awesome………”

So to conclude and allow you to disperse from reading anymore jargon, the main point is this. Ads have their ad sides and good, though really, we would all be lost and live in a flavorless world without it. Besides, we could never escape advertising. Even if naked we would still be walking advertisements. Persuading everyone its ok to be nude. We are advertisements. No running from it. No world without it. Even Mars.

We Need A New Color

We Need a New Color

Color shows the intensity on
her face we find in her eyes
(Photograher Unknown)

An imagination is one of rapid and increasing possibilities. An artist’s imagination is never satisfied. I, an artist have an imagination never satisfied and often bored by color. Not due to the fact that it lacks impact, I love color though with the right lines you can create a picture with intense color with nothing but a stroke of black India ink. Color with shape, shape with emotion, emotion then art. Some artist use color to show their emotion while others use strokes to bring to life and object whether living of still. Though, we all know just how easy it commences a body to be alive yet immobile.

There are only so many colors to choose from. While they are a wide variety they seem lonely. We have been using the same basic colors for over 1,000 years and though we reinterpret them and add hues of yellow or green to change their intensities we overuse them. You are able to view a color and tell exactly what era it was produced in. A mint green on a car is associated with the 50’s. The hue matches the time. Though, I find I have run out of colors to be amazed of. “All you need is love.” “All this world needs is a little love.”  Well, I am of full conviction that this entire world, though beautiful, could use new primary color.

The lines convey
 the mood without
needing to show us detailes.

Just think what we could do with it?  Ok, did you think about it for a while? Alright so here is what is so immaculate about another primary color. (1)It’s primary. This means that at least 3 new colours could be made with it and hues more than we can count of each of those.(2) clothing. Fashion designers would go completely insane with new ideas and color pallets to work from. Each color has a mood or aroma to it. You base this off of your design or vice versa. A new color with a new mood could allow for anything we can think of for another 1,000 years with nothing to bore us. Perhaps style wouldn’t be recycled as much if this were so. Sort of like the moment they discovered we could wear the colors on a parrot instead of only the ones on the sheep we just sheered.(3)  my most favorite thing in the world would be able to convey new ideas and feeling just as clothing designers fetched their ideas from this color. To be able to feel on paper that one emotion you just couldn’t write or show on paper in any form useful. A new color is a new highway of expression.



 Black and white is so popular
becuase it forces the veiwer to
 focus on the emotion of
the subject and not
 be distracted b
the emotion of the color.

and sow vibrations of feeling.

This world needs a new color. A breath of whipping air, feet dipped in soil and not sand, and hearts made from another color besides red. Though, red is my favorite color, a color of passion, it does not hold every feeling the heart possesses. I ask you, if the heart is red and blue, than what color is it in our chests as it beats. What is the color that rushes through our veins and fills our lips with lust and our fingertips with movement and creation? Not two of the most well distributed colors on earth. No, it is the color we have not found yet on a random insect to be found in 100 years by a scientist on an island someplace.  Whenever the colors were being created, I believe we received almost all of the ones we needed.  Though there is one to represent one emotion we haven’t found yet. Maybe never will.

This World While Beautiful, Needs a New Color

Cast Finished

I finished a cast of my good friends arm the other day. He will remain nameless becuase of what i am about to say............He yelled like a little girl. He only lost 15 arm hairs. BIG BABAY. The Sculpture is on its way, though i dont know quite when i will be able to pour the plaster.

Those Things With A Lot of Words

I, aside from being an artist absolutly love to read novels short stories and so on. A certain amount of elegance can only be found in literature. Therefore, i have decided to create a new blog titled, Those Things With A Lot of Words. It is a book reveiw blog telling what i thought about each book listed. The books listed so far are not half of what i have read, though keep in mind it takes a while to write reveiws, let alone remember every book i have read.
You can also post on the Books To Read page what book you think i would enjoy. Hope you enjoy  following my new blog and telling all your friends. follow the link below or click the page above titled Things With A Lot of Words


thanks,

Sculpture in Progess: update

I have now completed my sculpture of the the foot. It has truly turned out wonderfully and exactly as i had imagined. I will be continuing with this concept to create an optimistic concept and a whole collection with the same motivation. To show the inter workings of the human figure. However not so detailed to the point of confusion; but simply as to reflect the viewer's true gift of imagination. Too often artists mistake there viewers for fools and ones without imagination. Unfilled gaps allows the human mind to figure out what is known. To allow the viewer to become part of the arts creation. Yet, to take it for its simplicity. A sculpture with unlimited detail is noble and beautiful indeed, great skill is needed for such work. Though, the viewers mind is not engaged and is shown what 'is' and not aloud to perceive what 'might' be. It is the same question as to why we watch TV. Not to have to think. For the story to be layed out infront of us. Though when do we become engrosed in the television program? When we become uninvolved, we become uninterested. I strive to constantly keep my audience interested.
