The absurd

Work in progress.
The collage is an old piece from when I was still in flickr (ten years ago) called:
'Solo for dancing-feet-harmonium with bowler hat and duchess slipper'.
I am trying to make a diorama based on it, let's see.
The situation in my country and elsewhere is such that the only way to continue living is recognition and acceptance of the absurd.

I recently got this rolling press, made by a group of printer artists. Learning process.

throwaway palettes

Jim O'Neil has posted:

I moved away from using wood palettes to glass many years ago. The glass is far easier to clean and if paint, oil or acrylic, does dry on it it's easy to scrape off with a razor blade scraper. The palette I use most often is an old 8 1/2 by 10 window pane that I've duck taped the back of.

However I've found discarded CD or DVD disks make excellent throwaway palettes when working with just a few colors.

Setup for sumi-e painting

Jim O'Neil has posted:

On the left is the suzuri, ink grinding stone.
Below it is a fude fuki, rag for removing excess water or ink from the fude, brush.
Beside the suzuri rests the sumi, ink stick.
The sumi is sitting on the edge of the kami, paper.
Above that is a fude, brush, resting on a brush holder (fudimaki?) and above that more brushes racked.

A luta continua

Risa Profana has posted:

After two politically tiring and emotionally draining years I am to work on other things again. Hopefully coming here more often also.
I am trying to paint a little altar with the three archangels for a present to a religious person. Since I am not such and with all the political turmoil in Colombia, I have been having a hard time to start with them, but hope that now I will be able to move forward. Let's see.
The struggle goes on.
