3 Murderers

'3 Murderers'. After a drawing by Hans Bellmer, after an illustration to Césare Lombroso. (meaning that HB had a bit of fun with pseudoscience there)

 

Colour test

Test for silkscreen printing. Composition after Edward Thöny.

 

The Prince of Frogs

The Prince of thinkers and frogs, pays a visit to the capital. For those aware of Patafysica, this will be familiar territory. JP Brisset is not an invention of mine, he was a Frenchman who claimed that the french language was proof of his theory that humans had evolved from frogs. In all seriousness. He can be taken as the classic example of the morosophical thinker, who is not quite mad, as he (usually a he) can hold down a normal job and be functional in society, yet beyond eccentric. 

This was done after a photo. I don't think I can 'adopt' him for a future story, but this works as an exercise in composition, I suppose.
 

School of Unusual Children

 

Dance marathon

 

Shoot out action

Somehow, 'tits, fries and shooting' does not have just the right ring to it. English is not always the better option. Anyway, between a good friend and me it refers to the unpretentious action movie genre. 
 

Painting

 

Boiler room

Still doing this type of drawings. They function as exploration into possible narratives, but they are also artworks (and for sale!) in their own right. Let me know per PM if you might be interested. Old school ink + paper, no digital trickery.

 

Random page

Like it says on the label: a random post of a random page.

 

Sketchbook time = dream time

A new sketchbook cover. (number 95) Mostly white paint on black canvas, as usual. Based on a very weird find on Pinterest:

Streetview

 

Swimming in sketches

 

Hûh? Eh...

Into unknown territory.

 

Richard Gerstl

From my current sketchbook. Probing new ideas for a future story. Perhaps some of them will eventually hatch. Also, a caricature of Richard Gerstl appeared. A tragic Viennese painter who committed suicide after a failed affair with Mathilde Schoenberg, wife of the famous avantgarde composer Arnold Schoenberg (whom he has been giving painting lessons). Good painter, btw, and I feel a little bit guilty of making fun of him.  Interestingly, he had been taught by the very conservative Christian Griepenkerl (a delightful name) who had also been giving Egon Schiele a similarly hard time - and who rejected Adolf Hitler from entering art school. That is three strikes!

 

Sketchbook #90

Started a new sketchbook. Number 90. 'Argh! Just when we were winning!'

 

Hotel Blanc

From my sketchbook. When i was thinking about what to give this post as a title, I thought of the song 'Hotel Blanc' by Edward Ka-Spel, which is one of the most surreal pieces in my collection.
