»-(¯..v..¯)-» Design your MySpace with MyLook «-(¯..v..¯)-« ...SO HERE I AM. I WRITE, I PAINT, I CREATE MUSIC, I TAKE PHOTOGRAPHS. I DO WHAT I HAVE TO DO. NOT ALL THE TIME. NOT AS MUCH AS I SHOULD. I'M LAZY SOMETIMES, SOMETIMES TOO LAZY. AND IT WINDS ME UP. AND THAT MAKES ME FEEL CREATIVE, SO I GO AWAY AND CREATE. WHAT A VICIOUS CIRCLE. I SHARE MY WORK WITH ANYBODY WHO'S INTERESTED ENOUGH TO SHARE A MOMENT OF THEIR TIME. I HOPE YOU LIKE WHAT YOU SEE AND HEAR. I WRITE ABOUT OBSESSION AND THE REAWAKENING CONSCIENCE. WELL THAT'S THE THEME OF THE NOVEL I'M CURRENTLY WORKING ON, 'YOU'RE MY THRILL', NAMED AFTER A BEAUTIFUL BILLIE HOLIDAY NUMBER AND HOPEFULLY JUST AS AFFECTING. AS FAR AS MY PAINTING GOES I CAN'T REALLY TELL YOU ABOUT THE SUBJECT MATTER. I DON'T SET OUT TO PAINT A SPECIFIC SUBJECT. FOR ME IT'S MUCH MORE AN EMOTIONAL JOURNEY THAN A PRE-PLANNED EXERCISE. HOW I FEEL ON ANY GIVEN DAY DICTATES WHAT I PUT DOWN ON THE CHOSEN SURFACE. MY MOOD MIGHT INFLUENCE THE CHOICE OF COLOURS, MY EMOTIONS THE MANNER IN WHICH THEY ARE APPLIED. THE FIGURATIVE ELEMENTS I SEE IN EVERY PIECE DETERMINE HOW THE PAINTING IS PRESENTED TO THE VIEWER. FEEL FREE TO TAKE A LOOK AT THE CURRENT ALBUM IN 'VIEW MY PICS' (MORE PIECES WILL BE ADDED SHORTLY) AND COME UP WITH YOUR OWN OPINIONS OF WHAT YOU SEE. MY BIGGEST INFLUENCES ARE ABSTRACT EXPRESSIONISM AND COBRA. I EXPERIMENT WITH PRINTMAKING TOO. TAKE A LOOK AT THE ALBUM, AGAIN, IN 'VIEW MY PICS'. I ALSO DO A LOT OF WORK INVOLVING TEXT (EXAMPLES TO BE ADDED TO THE SITE SOON). I HAVE CHRISTENED MY TEXT PIECES 'TRIGGERS', THE CHOSEN WORDS ON EACH PIECE ACTING AS REMINDERS OF EVENTS IN THE VIEWER'S LIFE. EACH PIECE WILL MEAN SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT TO EACH PERSON. CHECK OUT MY ATTEMPTS AT DRUMMING ON THE HIGH PRIESTS SITE, NUMBER ONE ON MY FRIENDS LIST. I HOPE YOU LIKE THE PHOTOGRAPHS TOO. THE 'EUROPE' ALBUMS ARE RECENTLY DISCOVERED COLLECTIONS OF PHOTOGRAPHS TAKEN BY MY LATE FATHER. THEY ARE A FANTASTIC, AESTHETIC PIECE OF SOCIAL HISTORY AND NEED TO BE SHARED WITH ONE AND ALL. THE OTHER ALBUMS ARE MY WORK. LOTS MORE PHOTO'S TO BE ADDED ON A REGULAR BASIS AND ALL AESTHETICALLY PLEASING. YOUR COMMENTS ON MY WORK WOULD BE GRATEFULLY RECEIVED. ALL WORK COPYRIGHT MIKE ARNOLD 2007.
