Stage Two comprises in the destruction of my wall drawings, enabling them to never be marketed as the measurements can no longer be made, and the hanging of a collector’s item over them. These progress the destruction and also the beauty in destruction. The dots move from their spot on the wall to one on [...]

Continuing with development: I liked how all the previous wall drawings looked together; my subconscious working up again. May develop this later.These two pieces stemmed from the cel idea. They work by playing the character of the fountain against the recognisable mickey mouse. In the first, the fountain is given two ears, in the second [...]
Wall Drawings

Wall drawings are an interesting addition to art practice, they offer a different surface to work on. The main reason I am choosing to use wall drawings as a way of conveying my art is to suggest it being impossible to sell them. Of course its not impossible, as we know with banksy, but it [...]

Sooooo get that? its an interpretation of Hal Foster’s views on art, which I kinda agree with. The (postmodern) artist becomes a manipulator of signs more than a producer ofart objects, and the viewer and active reader of messages rather than a passive contemplator of the aesthetic. From that drawing I could go in a [...]
Cels

So here are some cels that I created with the idea of having them as valuable collector’s items from a cartoon that was never made. So I quite like them, especially the first one. Freddy Fountain as a young character (based on steamboat willie/plane crazy mickey). This naivity tries to evoke nostalgia to the days [...]

So from the last work, which I have started to assemble poorly as I don’t have experience or the time and resources to work in plastic, I have started to work into the idea of creating characters. Immediately I can jump into the idea of creating this fountain man. I may name him Freddy Fountain [...]

So I’m heading on down to the disney idea. I think its really quite a nice idea, with disney characters being my heroes at the time, as compared to now when artists are my heroes. So I’m going to make an action figure. Probably using an existing disney characters body with the fountain as a [...]

So I think I’m going to look into this disney thing more. Alan made an interesting point about both the age of the Fountain and the age of mickey mouse being quite similar. It will be interesting to see the comparisons. However, the are slightly different ages, fountain was made in 1917 and mickey mouse [...]
