The blank canvas: what to make of it? The world is a blank canvas, and everything in it our materials. Why revert to painting if one has truly assimilated this? In my own case, it’s simply what I love: making […]
I finally managed to get in for a quick tutorial for After Effects on Friday, which seems very straightforward, but I can pretty much guarantee that at some point I’ll encounter some confusion between timing and keyframes. Because I usually […]
I am surprised how disappointed I am. I submitted work for an open submission exhibition and it was rejected. They should teach this module at art college: Toughness of Skin, And How to Keep on Not Being Bitter. It’s expensive […]
