I don't have much of an update this week. I did just finish a painting, but don't have an image for it, so here's a link to a great painter I poached off
Keith Boadwee...
Steven Hurdand here's some more good painting:
Jules de Balincourt
John Copeland
Sunny Taylor
Duncan KnappenAs a painter, I am able to make the distinction between painting and, well,
other two-dimensional work (like illustration and decorative geometry). Yet, I've not come across a much better
vernacular for good painting other than
painting-painting.
A good painter is neither naive, or faux, mechanical or rote. It takes years to develop a sensitivity to the materials, much less a sophistication with the subject matter. I hope that the art community can start using less sloppy definitions for painting, even though a differentiation will have to be acknowledged first.
