Art Form You'd Like To Try

jhonenfreak · Posted: Wed Feb 02, 2005 7:18 pm Post subject:

What form(s) of art have you never had the opportunity to try but you'd love to do one day? Stone sculpture? Sidewalk chalkings? Wood carving?

I'd love to make a crop circle one day. Yes, I consider it art. Those huge geometric designs are so beautiful and intricate that it'd be fun to design one and create it.

Anything interesting that you'd like to create?

I've always wanted to try sculpture. My high school has a class for that but then i had to take classes relevant to college acceptances ~_~ but it looks interesting, making art that way.

Problem with crop circles is that it's vandalism, the farmers lose money for all the wheat that's tamped down....

Maybe you could let your back yard overgrow and make crop circles in that for practice?

I've always wanted to try out metalworking. I'm in a jewlery class, but it's not the same as an industrial-level thingy. Making huge metal sculptures... Ah, that would be love.

I know... unless you have permission. If a crop is dead some farmers will let people do it just for art's sake. Same thing with graffiti. Sometimes buildings will hire graffiti muralists to make one of their back walls more eye catching. I read an artical one about a guy who did that for a living.

I'd love to do some sort of large-scale piece of art, like a mural. Graffitti would be cool, as well. I don't care if it's vandalism, I think tagging is a fact of life. It's going to happen, so why not do it well?

I;d wanna do stone scuplture...though I probably do something stupid and have an anime character in stone for all eternity instead of something actually artsy fartsy

Oil paints are love. But I have nowhere to do it at this point. Sad

And I also have no patience.

And big scale pieces. Not murals, but like Nicholas Simmons' huge watercolor paintings.

I'd think i'd like to do those marble tile murals. You know, where you use bits of little marble to creat pictures on the floors of castles and the like. I would so be doing dragons.

I also would like to try some Ice scultures because I just want to use that niffty chainsaw...(buzzzzz).

I have tried pottery, but i didn't like that to much. But I do like to paint on glasses and do Japanese in clear paint. Maybe I should take some pictures of that and put that up here, but I wonder what catogory it would be under.

I want to try to do some of those large sandcastle things that they do over at the beachs. I always wanted to do a couple hundred dragon pictures. xD!

That's about it I think.

I've always wanted to carve a whole bunch of animal faces in a totem poll. Then I'd paint them red, blue, brown, black, etc. Stone sculpture has always been a big thing on my "to do" list, too. I think my school has a sculpture class. I might want to take that next year.

jewel sculpting. Those swan diamonds and teddy bear rubies are so cool. I really want to try that someday.

Marble sculpting sounds like it would be really cool...but classes are very expensive because of the high cost of the material...besides, I'd wait until my artistic skills are a little more polished. (pardon the unintentional pun)

Crop circles? Hahahahaha! OMG, I never even thought of that! What a neat idea ^_^

Hmmm, for me, I've always wanted to do some chinese style ink paintings. I'll get to it someday, just too lazy to go out and get the brushes and inks XD XD!

I've also been seriously considering making latex masks for the longest while. I already make masks now, but they are generally out of fun foam or cardboard, and for obvious reasons, realism is out of the picture.

But the proccess of making the masks has always elluded me because of its complexity -- all the matterials and steps and time involved have scared me off. Why, I reasoned, should I spend a week doing something I could get done in a day? Well, the obvious answer is that they come out looking neato!

If you're serious about making latex masks then you should try it! Maybe over the summer when you'd have the free time to experiment and learn the process. That also leaves enough time from now to save up money for the materials and equiptment. I never thought of masks before! That would be a cool art form to try! ^_^

One of things I've always dreamed of experimenting with is explosive artwork. No, I'm not talking about fireworks.
I saw on T.V. once, this woman takes huge sheets of metal, place a whole bunch of hard objects underneath in a pattern, (in this case, it was the virgin mary), places it object-side down on a bed of explosives, takes cover, and detonates the explosives. All the objects leave dents in the metal sheet, and it looks really cool. Besides, you get to use explosives! ^_^

Another thing I've wanted to try is to make a stop-motion figurine. With the metal 'skeleton', and the latex 'skin', and whatnot. Very cool.
