My picture Lash Larue is a continuation of a style/method that I began
to explore with the Levi Dedi tribute in the last pack.  I'm intrigued
by this idea of mixing the rectangular pieces that abstractly make up
the larger picture (inspired by ANSI and the pixel) with the more subtle
gradations that give a reality to things since they normally can only be
approximated by the bitmap image.  My gradations are only tricks of the
eye, just like any other bitmap image, but by putting them within the
context of the rectangular components, they begin to seem more real.

With this style, you can begin to imagine a picture made up of many
blocks that have true gradations on them, that come together to make a
larger whole. Such pictures don't really exist, and one couldn't see
them on the computer screen, but by suggesting how they might appear
through this technological artifice, one can at least picture them in
the mind.

The picture is saved as highest quality jpeg so that you can zoom in
and still see the gradations within the blocks the way they're supposed
to be, so take advantage of that and you might get more out of the pic.

My focus on the face and the idea of breaking the image up into many
small blocks that create a whole is inspired by the artwork of Chuck
Close. I think the face is the perfect subject for this because we as
humans are excellent at recognizing them. It allows the artist a high
level of abstraction, with the comfort of knowing that the viewer will
easily recognize the subject.

Art, in my own humble opinion, is the conveying of emotions brought on by
surrounding influences that reflects personal feelings.  It's the
perfect medium to display the inner/outer workings of one's
self-representation.  So... to display this idealism I've submitted two of
the three pieces from a series I've been working on called "Broken."
Two of the pieces are in the HRG pack; the other is in the last CIA pack
#58.  These pieces tackle two opposing arguments I've seemed to get into
lately.  The first being that some people believe computer art cannot be
fine art, and the second being that you cannot truly represent painting
an image with oils on canvas (from scratch) using a computer.  Well, I'm
glad to say both are false, and "The Scene's" Hirez artist are living
breathing examples of raw creativity being molded to push the very
limits of what can be done with computers.  So in closing thanks to all
the artist out there who are doing things that people tell them can't be
done.  And big thanks to ShereKhan for allowing me the chance to submit
some work under HRG.

this exhibition made me lose a couple kilos, damn it.. nevertheless I
got hold of the digitizer in the end, and managed to create an image that
had been living in me for a long time.. after all this monkey business it
was kinda reassuring to apply paint to a fox skull that had been
presented to me.
tEr, thanks for your being around, I'll grow a mushroom for ya!
Spro, I hate you bastard, fuck you. please know it..

. massive

hmmm....i dunno, writing is weird, i hate this! hehe.
'if you can keep your head when all about you
is loosing theirs and blaming it on you,
if you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
but make allowance for their doubting too;
then you'll be massive!' werd.
i guess i'll shout out to diff ppl now, atom, trin, pb, shere
and everyone in hrg and dark, keep it up! oh, and big
up to you for reading this....it must be hard;)
now, print out this nfo file, and smoke it;)

I don't deserve space in this info, 'coz my submission
is a 30-min sketch :) then again, it's the first thing
you see. greets go to spro who's made something out of it,
and to you, as always. oh, and to my love, of course :)

ehheh.. drawing is easy for me..
i think my mind is a vector based piece too..

well, some people said my verdure picture in the 21 was good,
so u might think i'm repeating this theme in this pack using
kinda same technics, but dont blame me, please..
all this stuff was drawn specially for our exhibition
in November, but only verdure pic was placed in the pack
as 2121spro.jpg ..  [i wanted to leave some ubnreleased pieces
for the exhibition as a surprise...]

i was really inspired by some serious thoughts, people and books
this month.. "alone", "Give our hearts back!" and "painhauz"
pics are about me..  about my life in the last months..

I gotta write thanks to:
- yoyo, for making me more serious with my artworks and
drawing process in general..
- Shere, thanks for the criticism, too...
- Atom, Lice and Bonse - you guys are amazing.
Thanks for the inspiration pump you're giving me...
- tEr, Lung, Kirulka - how i love to hate you...
- all guests in this pack, for supporting our motion..

greetz: all the people above.., #hrg, #hirez, liongv, grim, knave..
heritage attendance... harm readers...

this month was like mountains for me... as they can't be called a
plain, it can't be described in one word... a lot of time was eaten by
studies and heritage, so I didn't manage to get done what I wanted to
be done (as always, on other hand).
this time xara dominates photoshop (spro, you infested me :) it's my
studies and experiments again..
talk: I couldn't resist from drawing another couple of twisted
humans... everything inside, nothing more.. old man: all that's mine is
with me.. they say goats' milk is very disgusting.. and the horns are
home for bugs... everyone needs a home, right? :)
I want to thank the heritage organizers, the ones who helped to support
it, who found the time to visit.. some came across something new for
themselves.. if it's so, we didn't work in vain :)
it was very interesting and pleasing to see the works alive... hold
them... it's an extraordinary event :)
thank everyone who influenced my mood this month. thank shere (he's the
man whose opinion and critics will always be important for me), and
spro for his lessons and attempts to teach me to finish the works I've
started :)
