N O V E L T Y Amsterdam Fashion Week Tickets Giveaway
N O V E L T Y Amsterdam Fashion Week Tickets Giveaway
/ Most anticipated
Jef Montes show is what I am most excited about during the entire Amsterdam Fashion Week. Ever since I saw his impressive work first come down the runway at the Artez 2012 graduation show, where these pictures were taken, Ive been a huge fan. It is amazing how Jef approaches materials in a high tech way and how he translates inspiration coming from gothic architecture into modern silhouettes on bodies. Jef tells me that his graduation pieces were only a blue print of many more ideas. He even gave a little clue about his upcoming collection; to take the wet look of the fiberglass dresses very literally and that it will be all about light. I can not wait!

Monoprint Collage and a giveaway
Monoprint Collage and a giveaway
THANKS to all of you who signed up for the online Monoprint Collage. It is full now - that was quick!! So, for those of you who would like an in-person intensive monoprint collage experience, I am teaching at North Country Studio Workshops in January. It is a five-day intensive using the Bennington College art studios, which are full of light and are spacious. The workshop is limited to twelve participants, and the studio are open 24 hours. It is a fabulous place to immerse yourself in art and meet lots of other artists (there are thirteen workshops going on simultaneously, so you mingle at meals and evening slide talks). I studies encaustic with Daniella Woolf at North Country in 2012, and drawing (ink on Yupo, actually) with Leonard Ragouzeos in 2014. The workshops happen every other year.
Here is a video I posted before, on using Golden OPEN Acrylics for Monoprinting. I will give away a set of OPEN acrylics to a randomly selected person who comments on this post.
Here is how you enter: go to North Country Studio Workshops and look around the site. In your comment, tell me one or two things that you found there. Please identify yourself uniquely ("Mary G in Louisiana", not just "Mary", for example). The winner will be posted on Monday, and it is the winners responsibility to contact me with a mailing address.

More Black and White and a Giveaway
More Black and White and a Giveaway
I made a few more papers using stencils with a sponge roller, but also with the GelliArts gel plate. On these I used Golden Fluid Acrylics (Carbon Black and Titanium White), and also Golden OPEN Acrylics, which have a very long working time (they dry slowly).
Here are a few of the papers I made, using 9"x12" Cheap Drawing Paper:
 |
| In this I used a stencil I made myself with Cheap Drawing Paper. |
 |
| For this I used OPEN acrylic, and made the lines using a Q-tip. |
 |
| For this one I used a homemade gelatin plate, 8"x8", and then a stencil over it. |
The following two images are digital collages studies. They dont exist in actual material. I was fooling around in Photoshop, manipulating the scale of each of my papers as I put them together in these pieces. As I am investigating the issue of scale, I am wondering if making either digital studies or small paper studies might be useful. Ive never worked from studies, so its a new process for me.
I am offering a giveaway of the 14-product set of Goldens A - Z Workshop In A Box, to one person, chosen at random from those who comment on this post. Please say something about working in black and white, and/or something about scale. Im interested in your ideas. Identify yourself uniquely (i.e. "Mary in San Diego" rather than "Mary"). I will post the winner on Thursday, May 28. It is the responsibility of the winner to get in touch with me.
