Sometimes music videos make me cringe and I have to turn them off before I end up with a very bad association that makes me hesitate to listen to the song anymore. Sometimes a music video makes me love a song even more. This one makes me do the loving thing. It makes me sooo happy! I especially love the little yowling masked figure in it!
Sincere Yowls,

Posted in Art, art on paper, monotype, printmaking, Tom Bennett, work on paper with tags Art, art on paper, diamonds, dreams, monotype, printmaking, prints, Tom Bennett, whales on February 3, 2011 by Tom BennettThis week I have some more interpretive monotypes based on dreams of blogger Toni Tiller. I have included two variations of a dream that involves reform and retribution. In Toni’s words: “I got away with murder once, so I thought I could do it again, turns out it was only beginners luck. I paid my debt to society and was released into the sea, instantly transformed into a whale, enormous and weightless. It was only in moments of exhilaration when I leapt above the surface was I reminded of the heaviness of truth, and came crashing back down.” The other print is based on her succinct narrative: “spitting up diamonds.”

W.I.P. It Wednesday

This is my first pass at it, and while I am not in love, I do see where I might want to make some adjustments and take it next. The plan had been to make a few attempts at this in a row, but the weather conspired against me by forcing me into shoveling heaps and heaps of snow cut into art making time, at least it got me in a wintery mood though.

Watercolor on canvas, 28″ x 30″. There’s actually a lot of acrylic on the other side of this, the marks are where the watercolor seeped through the canvas.
