Continue on TCDC "KEEPING UP"

This exibition (click and ur pop there) "KEEPING UP"
This is an exibition based on the Mordern Thai Architecture from 1967 to 1987
and is held from 12 june 2008 to 14 september 2008 in gallery number 2

At first i was really glad to hear about this exhibition because i wanted to become an architecture one day too (follows after the dream of being a pilot and a cook ha ha) but when i got there... it seems very... i don’t know how to say it but... really unorganized and very boring... there was nothing that seems to be interesting... there was also spelling mistakes and others... so on... just glad i did not have to pay to go in ha ha...

Although there was much disappointments... i was also happy because my uncle's name was up there... although i know that he is a great architecture i did not know that he was more important than i thought in terms of what he does in his business... just hoping that one day i can be as good as him (and the others)...

etc etc etc

i wonder what he next exhibition will be about...?

E g y p t i a n

Egyptian is one of the favorite topic for me
I always enjoy looking through books and flipping through pictures of the Egyptian site and artifacts
Egyptian art is an art without perspective

Its also like a comic strip, different plots can be depicted next to each other.
The Egyptian artist understood how to create a harmonious human from using two different dimensions. Head, mouth, torso, and legs in profile, eyes, upper body, and hands shown from front.

Be back with this later
With pictures
thatz it for now

My some what favorite artist

Katsushika Hokusai, Japan's best known artist. The painting that is most well known is the great wave:
For image press here
There are also the series of MT Fuji. theses one were the one he took most time on and there are many series to it like a diffrent view of MT Fuji.

Katsushika Hokusai is also called an art crazy old man due to his love for doing art. He devoted his life to art... i mean because he really loves it... so thats why...
"From the age of six I had a mania for drawing the shapes of things. When I was fifty I had published a universe of designs. but all I have done before the the age of seventy is not worth bothering with. At seventy five I'll have learned something of the pattern of nature, of animals, of plants, of trees, birds, fish and insects. When I am eighty you will see real progress. At ninety I shall have cut my way deeply into the mystery of life itself. At a hundred I shall be a marvelous artist. At a hundred and ten everything I create; a dot, a line, will jump to life as never before. To all of you who are going to live as long as I do, I promise to keep my word. I am writing this in my old age. I used to call myself Hokosai, but today I sign my self 'The Old Man Mad About Drawing." -- this is what Hokusai said

His art stlye is from woodblock
and this is some of the paintings that inspired Hokusai... maybe it will also be a help to you...
Check it out here its by Philips Koninck (1619-1688 Amsterdam)

Hokusai normally based his art on landscape which i really like.
Hokusia also has thousands of sketches and they are called Manga in Japanese

And once again
Thats all for now....

An interesting topic

Art can be found anywhere
Even just how a chair is set up can be art
I mean in restaurants have napkins set up in a stylish way… that’s art
Just have an open minded and you can be inspired by anything you look at

Try looking at shadows
don’t they give you ideas I mean I am quite sure… like when you were young haven’t you ever think a shadow is scary or looks like something…???

I think clouds the best to squeeze out the imagination
And also good for brain practice getting your imagination thoughts warmed up

What does this picture give you an idea of?

How about this one?

Just keep your minds running and you will get all the ideas you want
Oh.. and don’t forget to develop them as the first idea can always grow
Now put on your thinking hat!

That’s it for now….
