Spread EGO - TJ Norris - GLITTER Painting

Image
TJ Norris , 2010 | 24in x 24 in | glitter on panel My first ever GLITTER PAINTING .  Abstracted and monochromatic, TJ NORRIS ' exhibition called SPREAD EGO inspired my decision to give this medium a try! One would think someone who involves at least 30 artists to create an image of him for a show about himself would have an enormous ego (which we all do, really).  The point, however, is his discomfort with how he looks.  "An acquired taste, " he says of his appearance. Participating ARTISTS making portraits of TJ: Katherine Ace, Rachael Allen, Paul Aponte, Chris Bennett, Jason Berlin, Becca Bernstein, Horia Bobia, G Lewis Clevenger, Palma Corral, Matthew Cosby, Laurie Danial, Nancy Dasenbrock, Sarah Gottesdiener, Matthew Haggett, Ian Henderson, Hector Hernandez, Bobby Jones, Edward Juan, Ann Kendellen, Andrew Klaus, Gabriel Liston, Rae Mahaffey, Brent Marr, Cynthia Mosser, Noah Nakell, Mark Randall, Megan Scheminske, Abi Spring, Sushuma,

Livia MARIN - Chlean Artist

Image
Livia MARIN 's work incorporates found porcelain forms painstakingly re-imagined into art objects. In the image below, I adore how the painted blue pattern extends over the broken edge to the interior. Image source: houseofpropellers.com

GLITTER & Faux Bois

Image
My favorite combination: orbs, color, GLITTER and faux bois. (Never in a million years did I think I would be writing this.) One can even mix glitter colors as though they were paint. Who knew? Image source: marthastewart.com
