Goal:
to integrate my digital work with my paintings
Concept:
create a range of studies that combine:
Loose drawings (from life or memory as they relate to my project)
Digital with paint
Paint into digital
Possibly repeat process
Composite studies
Pending the results of these studies, a series of larger works will be created and presented.
Quantity:
Final series will most likely be an odd number with quantity determined by size. At this moment I am anticipating 5 or 7 images in this series.
Size:
Final artwork will utilize the 12-15ft exhibition space offered at AIB during the January 08 residency. Pending preliminary studies and mentor feedback, I intend to use a square format to reference the digital element in this exploration. Therefore, sizes could be somewhere between 2x2’ and 4x4’
Materials:
Acrylic or acrylic mix media
Studies will most likely be on paper, canvas or hardboard
Final series will be determined by results and mentor input.
Since this is an exploration, paper, canvas, hardboard, plastic or metal are to be considered as possible solutions. Although unlikely, projections or 3D are feasible results.
Final product:
The exhibition of a paint/computer hybrid image series (alongside preliminary studies).
