THE FLOW OF MUSIC-My tribute to Jackson Pollock.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JACKSON POLLOCK!!
copyright by Gregorio

This is one of my pieces that really show my love of the technique used by Jackson Pollock.There is some thing very liberating and free about this.The ability to let go and allow the inner self out to play is crucial for a successful attempt .I've hear a lot of people comment how this is not art and how they can do that.I only have one thing to say,go for it,sure you can.The real trick is knowing when apiece is done and the ability to control your paint flow.Oh,yea I forgot to mention choice of colors for different effects.Any artist will tell you ,if you try to mix to many colors you come up with what is known as "mud".I actually had a lot more planed for this composition ie. more colors/layering.Well as I was waiting for the paint to dry(ha ha ha) seriously,I decided I just liked this the way it was.I do hope you enjoy it as much as I did in creating it.Leave me your comments and thoughts.

This is a painting I have previously posted but thought it appropriate for Jackson Pollock's Birthday.So I posted it again,please don't be disappointed.

Photo Study-random patterns

copyright by Gregorio

I haven't done a post in quite some time and I apologize for that.Unfortunately I have had so much going on.Some good and some bad,that I really have not had the time.I do hope that every one had a safe & Happy New Year/Christmas.Two things,first I accomplished my resolution from last year to quit smoking.It was a little up and down,a little on and off but finally done.Secondly I volunteered my time on Christmas to help at the city mission to feed people who had no where to go.My situation wasn't so good this year,but there is always some one less fortunate than yourself.I have to say volunteering was the most rewarding thing I have ever done.Bar none the best present I have ever gave myself.The gratification of helping someone else is second to none.It is something I will always be a part of.

Ok so what about the photo? Well I'll tell you it's one of many that I have taken in my little wanderings.There is something I really love about nature and its formations.Trees root systems are one of my favorites.There is something very Wabi Sabi about them.They also seem to inspire me.I hope you enjoy the natural random pattern in this photo as much as I do.I enjoy using these for meditation.

Being winter right now I am finding it impossible to paint with the fumes and all.My apt. is just to small and I can't aford a studio.When I do you will all be The first to know,so for now I will probably be posting more of my photography and purhapse a sketch or two.

Take care,and feel free to explore my blog or leave your comments.
