I'm with Clorophilla on this one....WOW! Never seen a challenge that became a "word" thread. We do have one of those...ThinkWrite.. Anyway don't know if this fits in, but it does pop and have some 3D type qualities to it. Cubism? Perhaps... |

Starting in the very first message, and repeated about five or ten times since, we've been saying LOOK AT THE PICTURES and don't get bogged down in the words (1000 words = 1 picture)! Anyway, thanks, this is on the right track. There's usually a recognizable subject in Mild Cubism but maybe not always. |

WOW Chelydra, are you an "Art" teacher? Incredible what you have express in here..for me too it's to much reading ..quite complex..I've been always mostly bored entering too much into Art expression, Artist development, techniques etc.details. I just love to watch , study just with my eyes,feelings,senses, Artists creations, it was easy for me being Italian,living in Italy till I was adult, or now visiting, and coming from Painters ancestors, and adore to paint/create ,but being in the past 10 years much too busy with my work, I couldn't paint really, and TD saved me!!! I t's a great pleasure for me to see that you have chosen some of my picture...I thank you so much for this..... . |

I guess I'll just go fetch it myself, since you didn't mind the others being appropriated... |

I just realized I neglected to set down a deadline. I'm of two minds — should we put this enterprise out of its misery and send it to an early grave? or should we hang on and see if we pick up some momentum? Any opinions? |

I'm delighted to hear that, especially about MM. Don't recall if I mentioned she was the founder of NY Studio School, which I attended for a year with her as my drawing teacher (when I bothered to show up). The place was a monastery/nunnery devoted to Art, where I learned a great deal (with a little help from pharmaceuticals when the exhortations were too mystifying to absorb), including that I wasn't as serious about being an Artist (with a capital A) as I'd imagined I was. I found making cartoons for Rat Subterranean News more gratifying than trying to surf the death throes of Art History (abstraction and Pop and Op had pretty much come and gone by 1969-69, with conceptual art arriving to fill the vacuum with an even more voracious vacuum). However, thanks to the Internet, I've discovered to my amazement I am just three teachers removed from Henri Matisse, who taught MM's dad a bit in Paris (who then taught her). Kinda like those pianists (and piano teachers and piano tuners and page turners) who claimed direct musical descent from Beethoven — probably half a dozen in every Austrian village, just as MM and her school filled New York with Matisse's great-grandchildren. Wondering how how to cash in on this connection... Anyway, I was under MM's influence (far more than I knew, until I saw those drawings a few weeks ago) when I suddenly started seeing things in a Marin/Villon-ish way. So that (plus on-going flashbacks from that dollop of acid 40 yrs ago) is where this drawing challenge came from. |

I'm up for it, Chelydra. The art teacher who taught me the most about space and color studied under Hans Hoffman ... |

Hot diggity! What shall we call it? (We might also poll Qsliv what on to call it, since has such a nice way with words.) |

I think "Art Theory Discussions" pretty well covers it. |

I think too that I'd better just mention a fact of life. Short comments, nicely broken up into paragraphs, get read more easily. |
