RE: Whisper Gallery II | Fête de la Musique
I've been there a bit too much, apparently. I'm in half a mind to ask for it back.
Thank YOU for putting little seeds of thought in my head through your amazing work. My colour exploration was okay, not so bad. I obsessed a bit about the blue in the bottom left but hey, mess is more.
Haha, my gif is made on PS. I don't know how else to make them. I import all my photos into one document as a separate layers. I turn on the animation timeline. I convert each layer into a frame. And then set the time for each frame. It's a quick job! You should get PS. I'm not sure how much I'd get by in life without it.
I feel you on giving away too many pieces. As artists, we want to share/give away our creations as sign we care, yet giving ourselves away like that can have unexpected consequences! In my case, I have practically nothing of the art I made in my youth, before my 10+ year hiatus from making art. It was all gifted or trashed, so today I have very little to show from that time in my life. Boooo ;]
"Mess is more", good one! Despite my fondness for organization, I like it. Color has its place of course, yet something about the starkness of black and white is timelessly appealing. Maybe because IRL we are usually inundated with color, submerged in it practically.
Thank you for explaining me the gifs! Yeah, I've used my phone in the past and it's not even worth exporting really. PS is somewhere in my future, after the laptop upgrade. I'm in a phase of building up right now, working towards some important goals. Once those are met, then the material things will come :D Thanks Manou (may I call you Manou???).
Strangely enough, I've actually never been able to part with my art. It takes a lot for me to give it away and I'm learning now to let it go slowly. I never wanted to sell my art either because I didn't want to be doing it for the money. Which is why steemit is so great. I haven't made much but the thought of monetising your artwork on a platform like this is redeeming enough.
Yeah, the contrast that plain black and white creates is just addictive. How true that maybe it's because of our lives in technicolour! It builds a nice image, prompts me to want to try to draw something that flows from bnw to colour.
Of course, you can call me Manou! Hit me up whenever you feel like talking about the building up phase.
That's what's up!
Your generosity is deeply appreciated, Manou. Trust me, I will keep the lines open. You put a great smile on my face!
BTW, I've got another tessellation post coming up. That art party really got inside my head (in a good way).
Ooooh I'm looking forward to it. Can't wait for the day where you can come to one of our art partiess!
