THE GAME ROOM

Tuesday Nights is the name of our class and The Game Room is where we meet when we are not together.

Got a idea that just can't wait...tell us about it.
You need to hash something out, maybe we can help.
Or maybe you just want to see what everybody else is up to.
Post links, post pictures, post questions or just ask one.


My Philosophy.
I teach through action and immersion. Just keep moving, contemplate later. In art, for me at least, there are times of rest and contemplation, and times of work. Art making is a time for work. It is the time to pull from the mental and make physical. Create a reality, a piece of art. For this the contemplative brain needs to move over, the art critic side isn’t even invited to the party. Learn to ask and answer your own questions on the move. The sooner I can get you making art the better. Get something done and then we have something to talk about.

    I love that, it resonates with me at this time. For me discipline is artistic salvation. By discipline I mean getting at it regularly. I try to treat it like a job; get into the studio get working on something, ANYTHING. I figure that inspiration, or a great idea will finally arrive as long as I keep showing up. In the meantime, I'm developing skills & techniques and streamlining the functioning of my art space (by working in it).

    So your looking at art (filling the well)
    and just showing up. Both great.
    Now all that you need is time.

    OK, I am jumping into this forum now because I need help with basics. For instance, I cannot at this time figure out how to upload a photo in a folder from my desktop (or from Picasa) to the "followers" tile. Let me know if there is another area I need to post my lameness....Thanks!

    Ok Nancy that's funny. I think you post your image in your profile.
    Can anyone help with that, since I already had a profile I didn't need to upload.

    Michael has made a rock group tableau out of 3 of my exquisite corpses! Will post a picture soon! They may not be gallery ready yet, but they're ready for the stage. Really I'm testing to see if this will post. Happy day to all of you kindred spirits!!
