Artist Lecture thingy i attended and what not

Matthew Dercole and Angela Deiffenbach were the 2 artists that gave lectures that I've attended. Their work is interesting and tackles area's of life that most people find strange which is why i really enjoyed there work. It's out of the norm. It's great to meet other artists that take the strange approach. They found their calling and they're sticking to it even tho it's not main stream

Matthew Dercole's work were mostly 3D. He worte a whole story book and then created artwork for the pages and then actually bound the book. His pieces involing the man finding beauty in the carcus of a deer was quite interesting.

Angela Deiffenbach looked mostly towards forms i think. She showed alot of pieces that where like the genetic make up of mechince which was pretty cool. She also swallowed a small camera which took pictures of her internal body. She then made a rump out of clay and made it so she could display it on the wall placeing it so low that if you're curious enough to look into the hole you had to bend over. when you looked in ou saw a slide show of all the pictures that were taken internally of her.

Critque 2

This is what I'm working on in Com art. We were supposed to make a cirus scene with ourselves at the cirus performer and we were also supoosed to have an animal companion which is the armadilos in my case.
 this is just an idea i've had for awhile now which needs a lot more thought as to where the direction is going
this is a finished piece.
Remember to Forget
which has to do with multiple personality disorder

Critique #1

I normaly have a strong concept in my pieces. I feel like Surrealism is the style with no limits. I look at the world in a different light so my imagination takes over and has a lot to do with my art work.

Holding Darkness
It's ink and brush. Still needs a little more planing to fill space but the whole Concept is that everyone has the power to do both evil and good.


I haven't titled this yet but it's going to be all in acrylic paint. The concept behind this basically is pollution caused by humanity is slowly killing Gaia (Mother Earth). Gaia gave life to humanity and nurtures humanity. The Death of Gaia in turn causes the Death of all humanity


This piece is the closest to being finished. I have just a little work to do. It is untitled as well for the moment. It's a drawing and it's supposed to show multiple personality disorder. What missing is the cause. Most cases of M.P.D are caused by a sudden traumatic event which in turn the Brain to protect the exciting personality actually creates a new personality that takes on the memory of the traumatic event. It can result in not just 1 extra but many different personalities.

This is just a rose in ink and brush i did to work a little bit with the median because I haven't touched it in a few months.

This is the new piece I'm working on . I'm going to use acrylic. Right now I'm sketching it out ont he canvas and working out all the details little better

I'm just me

I'm from Neosho, Mo where I graduated in 2010 and then went on the attend Crowder Collage where I've graduated from with a Art & Design degree. Now I've found myself here at PSU. All last semester I just finished up all my 3D requirements for my degree and now I want to go back to my roots. I've always been a 2D artist so the idea is to furter improve my painting techinque in both acrylic and Ink. I'd also like to work on full finished drawing because it's been a few years since I've done so. This is some of my own work.
