AMPLIFY HOPE
GONE FISHING (((*:*))
“This artwork was created using Neurographic Art techniques as developed by Pavel Piskarev in 2014.”
~ from the ASHEVILLE DROLLS & INKLINGS series- characters and caricatures found only in the mountains of North Carolina- specifically residing only in my Asheville studio. (((*:*)) where they often arrive to surprise us. -
These creatures may be opinionated but with good will and humor. And, YOU can add your colors to these pen-and-ink drawings. Here are Simple Words to Share a Message--be it Light-hearted or Serious. . . . . P.S. These images are great on MUGS! Or CARDS--or any number of "surface art" pieces.
AMPLIFY HOPE came along one day after I had been down at The French Broad River watcing fly fishermen. It showed up shortly thereafter in my studio in Asheville, N.C. as this pen-and-ink neurographic. I had to smile at the synchronicity.
I actually was working with a meditative/relaxing and envisioning technique using pen and ink. While later I painted the image, I saved the original for a series of "adult coloring book" collection here.
The nudge and jolt when elements come together with a sense of joie de vivre as I experienced when creating this "neurographic" image was captivating.
As David Bowie said, "I don't know where I'm going from here, but I promise it won't be boring." And THIS image was just that for me. .!!
It began as a pen-and-ink sketch--a "neurographic" jaunt into the realm of possibility where fish and men meet at some place without time. For me, creating images is a coalescing experience. I "lose track of time" while in the creative flow, and feel a deepening sense of calm. I love the idea of lyrical abstraction where I can blend geometric and organic influences.
The technique I have turned to-(as you see here)- to work toward "letting go and moving effortlessly " into a creative process that goal is Neurographic art. It is one rooted in psychology and akin to meditative practices. For more info: https://www.neurographica.us
MEDIA:: Sketch for composition to paper. The result then captured as a photo and brought to create a JPEG. Finally, digital layering of the original materials.
Objective:: Narrative art with emotive content- that offers an opportunity for the viewer to interpret the story being told, and thus add to the story. Whether as a digital abstractionist, working as well on canvas and with photography to produce mixed media images, my hope is to engage the person who is looking at the image.
Symbolism :: Ever a sense of joy of life, transitions, new perceptions that evoke positive change, the embracing of an inner - symbolic-mythic- visual landscape that can reveal how disparate parts work together when visual impressions, founded on simple or more complex designs, build on a promising tale of life on Earth.
