Marketing.....


Still moving forward on this image.........I have posted earlier versions on the blog so far....




A few toons......

Next week I head down to art basel in Miami.  I am showing in 2 spaces and will bring the art clothes to see what is going on there.  My ideal would be to make a contact with a gallery in NY that would be into showing the paintings. 

The idea is to walk around in the art jacket as much as possible........hand out cards meet people that kind of thing.  Marketing.........

Blues

so I am messing around with a different way of painting. 
this is another one from this series.........guess I am working in blues for now......

I am thinking about consequences of my actions, as I have for the past couple of weeks.  I have to rethink everything, I feel like I have been fooling myself for a while now and have to take stock. 

It's weird how you can loose yourself so quickly.


sam;e as it ever was......

yoyo



I have been pulling a few paintings from the last year which did not seem complete and am working with the impasto medium to bring out some of the forms while leaving others to oil washes......

Yellow parts........

This is the state of this painting right now
Not sure about the "yellow" areas, the original idea was to have these 2 areas stand out from the red field.......
This is a palate knife piece.......20"x24"




Krasowitz.com



I revamped my website at www.krasowitz.com.......please check it out if you like.......
and if you have any comments on the toons please feel free to post them.......

Boom.


a couple from yesterday......

these 2 paintings were from a live painting event last night on Delancy street in NYC.  I did 2 portraits and this sketch, then a collaborative painting with 3 people at the event.....it was a nice evening, when I do these events I like to work with people who are not used to painting and they get really creative......it is about now that I would show you a picture of that piece but did not take one......ugh......

Never let em know.





so in last nights early morning dream I did an act of vandalism.......nothing major.......but instead of walking away I owned up to it.  people were cool.

new painting......using a palate knife........first state drawing with oil directly on canvas.

direction.....


I have been posting these toons on Facebook and am not getting much of  a reaction to them.  I am wondering if I should be more literal, tell a story and be consistent, to see if I can build some kind of reaction to them.  It is not my normal way of working, but perhaps cartoons are character driven and I have to establish some kind of narrative instead of the stream of consciousness idea...

spontaneous Toons.






Some notes about the "Toons".......I am messing around with space and line here a bit......using negative space to leave room for the words or just open areas.....
I am leaving the narrative elements ambiguous......I guess I could come up with something clever but think they are more along the idea of spontaneous creation this way.
