How do you do art

#11

need fresh air and water, and normally have something to inspire me :love::twisted:

#12

I use the wacom!

#13

nicotine and music … more caffeine won’t hurt anybody

#14

Music is always focusing. It gets me where I want to be when I’m doing anything: in the zone. Drugs (for me, it’s alcohol and caffeine) are great for relaxing, but not focusing. Sometimes, tho, you just gotta relax a bit…

I found that a studio workshop helps the focus, too. The time constraint (usually the model is paid for 3 hours) just puts enough pressure to require me to sit down and get in gear. That’s the only time I end up doing some warmup sketches then plowing ahead into creating. That, and there’s no distractions.

They sold Dasani for 1 week in the UK and then it got banned.

#16

What a miraculous drink it is that Dasani? We don’t have it in our banana republic. :surprised

#17

I know how you can make some Dasani at home, Buy a filter at the food store for ten dollars, and our some nice fresh tap water from your sink tub or toilet what have you. Ta DA ! Dasani!

:stuck_out_tongue: Spring water is nice as well. But no distilled, yuck

How do I make art?

  1. I crap in a small metal can and label it Artist’s Shit!!!
  2. I uproot a urinal and put my name on it!!!
  3. I take people’s picture many many times and put them all on a big big canvas with different colors!!!
  4. I take a bucket of paint and throw it at my canvas!!!
  5. I take some cow shit and throw it at something religious!!!
  6. I take anything and throw it at something religious
  7. I take something even simpler than a urinal and put my name on it!!!
  8. I trick some sculptor into making a carving and then SMASH the thing into tiny pieces and put my name on it!!!
  9. I make a video of me shooting a bullet at my friend’s hand!!!
  10. I make a video of some dude sleeping for 6 hours!!!
  11. I take soil from outside the musem and put it inside the museum and of course, PUT MY NAME ON IT!!!

Sorry for breaking the flow of the thread.

I Think I have no Imagination :frowning:

brb

#21

I just got mah-shelf som kewl stuff. :slight_smile:

Five cans of ‘bullit’, for today’s session. It’s got a print of DaVinci’s dude in a square and a sphere drawing on it. Never figured out why anyone would want to paint someone in that pose, lol. Maybe for making snow-angles though.

Taurine and caffeine, lotsa… :drool:

#22

I guess my secret weapon is coffee, Hans Zimmer’s music and huge amount of classical music.

That’s about it :slight_smile: I tend to be most productive during the nighttime.

Dude, that’s too dangerous for both the heart and brain. Try hard to reduce it to a normal level asap.

#25

I guess it should be bad since it’s excessive, but bad for my brain? :surprised

I’ll see, I hope I can do without, lol.
Since doing some work again during the day I’ve switched to booster drinks. :rolleyes:

I’ll give it a go though, I know I should. :slight_smile:

#26

I sit on a comfortable sofa with my laptop and the t.v :smiley:

Oh and my trusty Wacom :smiley:

Gah, I’m such a slob :stuck_out_tongue:

#27

I eat lots of junk food. Also teh tarik, which imo is better than coffee (makes me hyper and nervous and insomniac). Studio workshops are really good to help force me to draw :slight_smile: Everything is so quiet…

helicopterr, welcome to the main bulk of high school art theory :arteest:

#28

Copious tea, cgtalk and whole lotta music makes my world as I art.

#29

Darn I learned that in my fourth year in college…that me, always a step behind the avant garde :banghead:

Sex is my inspiration. No really it is.
