![]() Her forms and ideas tend not to accept the arbitrary boundaries of the shapes as endpoints, as if each work is but a piece of a larger stencil that has the capacity to stretch over the edge of the subject. Ula Dzwonik’s work for instance, seems as Organic and primitive, characterized by “the use of distressed layers” she works towards this goal using multiple color coats forming a loud and broken surrealist image.ĭzwonik’s works often have pasty smudges-like, concentrated with larger blocks of color, creating a distinct vibrant connection to the background. ![]() Dzwonik, Giesse and RodriguezĪt ARTSPACE 8, artists, Ula Dzwonik, Martin Giesse and Fidel Rodriguez, particularly we refer to their work as “organic.” They do not aim to obfuscate the human-made aspect of their work but, through their chosen techniques and styles, accentuate their ability to create a more organic effect in their art. Rather, an “organic” production of feels as if art moves away from personal expression and emotion of the artist and towards the beauty in nature and the natural formation of color and form. The more visible the hand and brushstroke of the painter, the less organic a work becomes. However, the use of the term “organic” in art can actually help to define a “non-painterly” approach. I will see how it works.Martin Giesse Exploring the Natural Aesthetic in ArtĪrt is often associated with the human hand, and the word “organic” might seem like a paradox when used to describe it. I think it needs yellow/green in the background to give it life. I still think the background color does not work and will add a lighter color to the background. Yellow/green oil color was added between the shapes so that the blues became lighter in some areas. Once I was satisfied with the results, added the flowers and repeated the wax process. ![]() Once the wax was cool, took a scraping tool and scraped down the areas where the wax was too thick. Then, covered the surface with clear wax. The flowers will be added with an iron.Īrranging the circles onto the surface and pressing them into the wax. ![]() The collaged Elements with the background encaustic completed and the cut elements embedded into the surface. This part I should not have done because it made the blues muddy. Then took black and wiped it onto the surface and wiped as much of the black off the surface so that the black stayed only in the cracks. Once the wax surface was done I took an iron and smoothed down the wax. I then put two layers of wax onto the paper/canvas. I first glued the watercolor paper onto the canvas so that the wax will absorb into the paper and canvas. So I cut out all of the blue circles from the fabric and paper flowers. I had a fabric with blue circles and wanted to use the color scheme for the final artwork. I took watercolor, painted the flowers and cut them out. I then printed the page and used the elements for the composition. Scanned it onto my computer and then isolated the flower elements into black and white. I first simplified the composition in pencil. ![]() This week I am working on Shapes and, for inspiration, used a photograph of one of my flower composition. ![]()
