Artist Entry: lupea.

Hi there, this is Luke (lupea is the nickname) and I'm one of the artists that'll be showcased in Project Debut. There hasn't been a post on here since mid-November so I thought it was high time o update it :)

Well I'll be painting for the exhibition three pieces that equal five canvases as one is a sort of triptych. They'll all have a flat base colour for the background to bring more focus to the foreground. I'm pretty anal retentive when it comes to the tonal arrangements in my piece which usually leads to taking a lot of time to do a piece fully. I've been told not to be such a perfectionist, but it's kind of hard when my career goal is a tattooist :P

I don't want to give away much about my pieces since they're mostly still in production. I can say that one is Banksy-inspired (If you don't know Bansky, shame on you and Google him) and the other is Beatles influenced, the third being inspired by various things, including the artist Lawrence Yang (again, shame on you for not knowing him if you don't). Two of these canvases are pretty big, so it'll be a big task for me to do. Fun times shall be had by all.

If anyone reading this wants to know more about my art you can visit my portfolio at http://lupea.daportfolio.com or http://konton-kyoudai.deviantart.com/gallery/

Have a great day,




lupea.

Three, two, one, BLASTOFF!

Hi there.

This is the first blog post for the DEBUT PROJECT. Putting that in capitals just makes it so much better.

Anywho, first up is some details;

What?

The Debut Project is a youth visual arts project that involves an exhibition of work by seven young artists from Perth, all working in different areas of visual art.

Also included is a submission zine, "untitled(YOUTH)", that is to include artwork from Perth artists aged 13 to 25.

Who?

The seven exhibiting artists will be revealed on this site over the coming weeks...

When?

The exhibition is planned for February 2010. The zine will be launched at the same time.

So that's the deal. Keep coming back to this site for more details, such as zine submission guidelines, coming soon.
