His educational background plays a major part of his artistic practice, and this can be seen in his clever project titled, The Edge Effect . In the description and explanation of the project, Kukla writes, In March of 2012, I was awarded an artist’s residency by the United States National Park Service in southern California’s Joshua Tree National Park. While staying in the Park, I spent much of my time visiting the borderlands of the park and the areas where the low Sonoran desert meets the high Mojave desert.

With an art career spanning more than three decades, Judith Ann Braun has tested the limits of her artistic musculature. She began as a self-described “realistic figure painter,” and worked through the struggles common to anyone who endeavors upon an artistic pursuit, that of searching for one’s own voice in the chosen medium. Fast forward to the 21 st century where the evolution of Braun’s work has brought us to the Fingerings series, a collection of charcoal dust landscapes and abstracts “painted” using not brushes but her fingertips.

The process engages children in a cross section of learning areas including the research subject, design drawing, 2-D or 3-D planning design, problem solving, working in a team and construction skills. The design can involve varying degrees of complexity depending on a group’s age, with the focus being concentrated on decoration for young children.

Monotyping With GOLDEN Acrylics

LIMITATIONS OF OIL PAINTS AND PRINTING INKS While oil paints might seem ideal for monotypes, their linseed oil content will eventually cause yellowing and decomposition in paper fibers1. Furthermore, quick absorption of oil into the paper can cause the paint to become brittle, crack and delaminate. Lithography and other printing inks generally work well and have been the most common media for monotypes in the past. However their palettes are limited and thicker applications can result in tacky, slow drying prints. http://www.goldenpaints.com/technicaldata/monoprnt.php

Stunning Installations From Luzinterruptus Shed Light On Environmental Issues

Stunning Installations From Luzinterruptus Shed Light On Environmental Issues Plastic Garbage Guarding The Museum. Since late 2008, Madrid’s Luzinterruptus , an anonymous art collective whose mission is to bring attention to environmental issues, has been carrying out interventions in public urban spaces. Using light as a raw material and the dark of night as their canvas, the team creates ephemeral outdoor light installations out of waste and discarded objects like empty water bottels, colorful trash bags, and hazmat suits. http://www.thecreatorsproject.com/blog/stunning-installations-from-luzinterruptus-shed-light-on-environmental-issues
http://thecreatorsproject.com/blog/ferrofluids-go-next-level-technicolor-in-fabian-oefners-amazing-images Ferrofluids Go Next Level Technicolor In Fabian Oefner's Amazing Images A ferrofluid is a magnetized liquid that creates all manner of bizarre patterns that look like the surface of a distant planet’s moon. Because of that, they’ve been featured in a ton of videos and artworks lately, but so far these have mainly been black and white, with maybe some silver thrown in to add a bit of pizzaz. But photographer Fabian Oefner is breaking with this monochromatic tradition by throwing water colors into the mix and bringing in some much-needed luminosity in his series Millefiori . Oefner’s alchemical magic is created by mixing a ferrofluid with water colors in a magnetic field.
