Get Inspired: Claude Monet

Posted by Amanda Makepeace in Inspiration on May 1, 2013

. . . forget what object you have before you – a tree, a house, a field or whatever. Merely think, here is a little square of blue, here an oblong of pink, here a streak of yellow and paint it just as it looks to you, the exact colour and shape . . .

Get Inspired: Jean-Michel Basquiat

Posted by Amanda Makepeace in Inspiration on April 24, 2013

I start a picture and I finish it. I don’t think about art while I work. I try to think about life.

EBSQ 1:1 – What art medium would you love to learn?

Posted by Amanda Makepeace in Artist Interviews, EBSQ 1:1 on April 22, 2013

Elena Feliciano

As a painter I am always seeking new techniques to use in my work. I believe venturing into unfamiliar mediums from time to time will benefit the one I mostly work with. It allows me to come back with a fresh view. One art form I would love to learn is sculpture. Throughout history materials continue to be diverse, enabling endless possibilities that are only limited by our imaginations.

I’ve never been able to get the hang of colored pencils. I see work that other artists have done and it’s amazing but I just can’t get the hang of them. I would love to learn how to use colored pencils.

I’ve always wanted to learn stained glass but I am really afraid of having to cut the glass, and working with hot materials like solder.

The other medium would be welding kinetic sculptures. I would like to use rock with the metal. If i could get movement it would be even crazier! I have never welded & it would be a challenge as the Lyme leaves me weak so I do not know if physically it is possible. But maybe I’ll just have to attempt it!
