Über King · 12-21-2007, 06:11 PM

this one i did today, based on a giacometti, its the start of a new module, sorry about the crappy picture quality.

Flamingnun · 12-21-2007, 06:13 PM

nice, man.

Über King · 12-26-2007, 07:45 AM

cheers nun.

I did this today, although im not sure if it counts as art. . . . sculpture maybe?

its a 3 fingered hand made entirely of cadburys heroes wrappers. still needs a little finger, but what are you gonna do? i feel too sick to keep on eating chocolate.

I remember last year i made a flower out of quality street wrappers.

DeafTones · 12-26-2007, 08:59 AM

Uber man, you got some talent. Since when did you paint? You still in High school High?

I like those paintings. I did a painting by Gauguin my senior year. Here it is. (Gauguin's that is, I dont have a camera.)

yeah, im doing all the paintings for schoolwork atm, all the random stuff is just done for fun.

Once ive finished my A levels im ginna go to college and do a foundation art year with a specialism in photography, then go on to university to study Film and Television Production. I got offered a place at the uni a couple of days ago.

Über King · 12-26-2007, 09:40 AM

hehe, i just finished the hand

Über King · 12-26-2007, 04:22 PM

if im not careful i might get obsessed with this . . .

It'sJustMe · 12-26-2007, 07:05 PM

Those are so great!

I love the way artists see the everyday world around them.

koshiva · 12-26-2007, 08:14 PM

Definatly awesome - fantastic. I wish I could draw paint to some degree of decency too.

I love that first painting - reminds me of one I did - it's more the style I like...seems more artistic to do a 'rendition of interpretation' rather than a reproduction of exactly what a photograph would show. I have an impressionist painting about 40 yrs old done by an unkown artist which to me is a master-piece.

Not sure I like the subject matter so much Uber - much of it kind of dark - but maybe that was the subject material for that level/school? What his face comes to mind...that serial killer...clown guy? Dacy? Gacy? You'll know who...

still every nice indeed.

koshiva · 12-26-2007, 08:15 PM

oh yeah, the wrapper sculpture - could it be 'chocolate hand on Jack'?

An Art University? Good for you man; if I was smart, I would've gone to college instead of fucking around for 4 years. It's the way the cookie crumbles.
