  • Those are really neat, @GeoTony. That's a lot of woodworking skill.

  • I draw birds and etch them onto my DIY effects pedal builds. Here’s a few recent ones:



  • Some time ago I started a naive abstract serie called 涙 (tears in Japanese). Nothing really interesting, but a way to "materialize" some of my synesthetic experiences. I like the colours and textures on those ones

    涙−スズラン (Lilly of the valley)

    涙−ラベンダーの香り (Lavender scent)

    涙−後悔 (Regrets)

    涙−血 (Blood)

    涙−雨の街明かり (City lights in the rain)

    涙−音の波 (Sound Waves)

  • This might count as visual art, I recently made this little animation remembering David Lynch's Twin Peaks

  • @pricklyrobot I love that a lot, mate. :) Birds are always a great subject to draw, and the fact you etched those onto your pedals is really cool.


    @JanKun I'm happy to see you here too. Your Abstract art is very lovely and mesmerising. And, I forgot to comment on "The Black Dog Runs at Night", but it's the perfect combination of Experimental music meets stunning visuals.


    And here is my next finished piece titled "Royalty". This was commissioned by a good friend of mine. ❤️

    @Pxlhg That is so beautiful! Good god, and yes I understand it was not an ideal lighting situation, but the art still shines through! Great usage of sgraffito, nice interplay of colours, and I love how it seems like a scene from outer space but not explicitly so. ❤️


    @u0421793 Lol! That's a funny quote. Did you draw the sketch though? :) Looks amazing.


    @pedro I think that's very well made! :) Has aspects of Cubism to be honest. I love your portrait. Hope to see more from you.


    @Ailerom Agreed. Not only did the schools arbitrarily remove Shop Class, they also removed Driver's Ed from highschool. (I mean, removing Driver's Ed would account for over half the shit drivers on the road. 🤣 )


    @zoltan Living art! That's bloody brilliant, mate! Honestly? I hope someday you'll put the app for sale, whether under Quantovox or under a separate entity. I'd definitely support.


    @richardyot

    The second piece of your 3D collection is where your current PFP comes from?! 😃 And your art, both stylised 3D, "Gideon Gray", and straightforward 3D works are so well made! I must ask, which app(s) did you use for your 3D art?


    @Dav Oh god, I shamefully admit I used to look down at Abstract Art too. 🫣 The reasons I took a liking to Abstract Art are...

    1. It is beautiful to look at.
    2. It's both not as difficult to create as representational art in some respects, but also more difficult to create in other respects. Requires a different set of thinking skills.
    3. It's freeing to create Abstract Art.
    4. I love the shit out of Ambient music, which is no secret. Abstract Art fits Ambient Music like a glove, especially in an installation piece. 😉 Kohler Art Museum in Sheboygan had some very incredible pieces, and while viewing those, had this mechanical piece of art strumming random notes. Made my jaw drop.
    5. Instead of expressing something visual right in front of you/using a mood board, you express a vibe, an emotion, and try to represent that in visual format.

    Once I understood this about Abstract and Modern Art, the more my brain exploded with ideas and imagination. Lately, Abstract art has become an obsession, which is why I bought cheap oil pastels and cheap mixed media paper last week. Finally attempted my first two pieces yesterday.

    Yes

  • @u0421793 I like it a lot. ☺️

    One of my creative outlets is programming, and I’ve made a couple drawing/animation apps in Windows/Linux. One is an abstract drawing app (still work in progress) that draws in 4 areas of the screen at the same time, the 4 drawing points stay at the same distance from center point of the screen. If you move the drawing point closer, the other 3 points move closer, and farther you move away, the farther they will move, etc, so it’s easy to make mirrored patterns on the screen. Added a bunch of filters to tweak the drawing. With it I can draw stain glass like patterns super fast. Here are a couple examples I drew using that program. I did tweak these up a bit on my ipad afterwards.


  • @Dav That is incredibly beautiful mate! I do love stained glass art. Will these apps be released someday to the appstore?

    Probably not, the only iPad programming I’ve done is with a cool app called smartBasic. I have ported a few windows programs to that language and shared them on the smartBasic forum, but these drawing apps will probably stay in the desktop world.

    Hey, that’s a nice drawing you made up there, “Royalty”.

  • I do some art but mainly make instruments. . . .

    And this lute with case in progress. . . .

  • edited April 2025

    Going through some older stuff and found this therapy session.😅 I did this on an iPhone5s and I have no clue now how I managed. Anyway it was made with an app called isometric if anyone recalls it.

  • My drawing. . .

    Just wow, love these so much :smiley:

  • Dont mean to sound spoilt for a person thats so unambitious but some of my art materials. The best you can buy really. Am actually in the process of creating a studio but will practice on ipad more ( perhaps some watercolour pencils I bought ) but that sort of means detail. Which isnt bad. Perhaps Id be better with detail but interested in expressionism with non fine point pastels.

    but just my pastel sets.

    Iv just bought the soft pastels because of the studio build. Figured Rembrandts would be good with the sennelier on top .

    Then you got wax Carandache Neoart Aquarelle ( chunky wax/water colour ) plus the thinner Caran Dache neocolor II

    Then Caran dache Neopastel and Sennelier ( oil pastels )


  • As I say.

    Unmotivated although I didnt have space but no excuse to not draw anything ( from stuff bought 12 years ago )

    Thats pretty much school. College and Uni in wasted time.

    Then all the time wasted before that ( I only really drew a few pictures at school )

    This how lame I am as a noob.

    Im not even trying but just see how colour might work.

    Talk about lack of detail.

    I will draw an eye next.

  • So the studio.

    Need to add a plastic sheet to wall which will cover paintings.

    It will either be yellow or clear plastic ( theres also a blue )

    I think Iv chosen yellow just to remind me of the yellow light but now thinking to just add clear plastic.

    It will be cold in winter.

    Ipad wise.

    I just dont use all my tech for music making.

    Perhaps Id sell it all to fund 1 ipad pro.

    It will be better for painting and I may make music if I can chill out more ( rather than be at a desk )

  • edited April 2025

    You have to sand the Rembrandts.

    So they are more like handmades ( like the sennelier or other brands ) Unison etc.

    Okay, next piece of Abstract art with oil pastels on mixed media paper. ❤️ Did this while on videochat with Anja.

    Working with oil pastels is a bit too sticky for me and also quite difficult, but, someone gave me a bunch some years back and I recalled a technique from, I think as early as kindergarten: I'm sure you are familiar with it but if not, try it:

    You fill the whole white space with various bright colours, it can be a rainbow or just random or even a gradient. Then you paint it all over with a layer of black (and see to that it covers all). Then you take a spatula or a fork, whatever (not too sharp) and start scratch away to reveal the underlaying layer of colours - it's a very gratifying technique and loads of fun. I'm looking at the only one I did as I'm writing this.

    Love abstracts! Which is funny because I really, really despised it when younger and it sometimes even upset me 😅. Now it's almost all I do when painting (which I can't do much due to pain issues).

    Scraffito for pastel scrapping.

    but perhaps Encaustic could also be generalised. Some people use wax cakes and heat tools.

    Subtractive also ( scrapers and tools on acrylics etc )

    I do like paint pours with acrylic from what iv seen ( although it isnt really drawing skill )

    Its more like digital art I guess. Shiny and details you probably wouldnt bother to paint.

  • Looks like a great studio setup you have in the works there, @sigma79!

    @dblone: awesome looking instruments! and drawings!

    Here's the first Bob Ross type painting I ever attempted. I use to watch Bob Ross reruns back in college, and one day he was painting this big wave and it looked so easy it made me want to try his technique. Here's what kicked me off on a little painting binge for a while. Took about 45 minutes to paint this. It is hanging in a dark den, so the colors in this snapshot image are a little dull.

    Id be happy if I could be as good.

    Trying to not use brushes hence buying more pastels.

    But I suppose brushes could be the way.

    Pretty good as a test for yourself, Dave! Oils?

  • @Dav Fair enough mate. :) I'm definitely not a Windows user, but if I were, I'd get your apps for sure. Always fun to explore new-to-me apps.

    And thank you kindly, my friend. :) I just love exploring Abstract art. I tried to do that symmetry thing, but it turned out a little wonky. However, I embrace imperfection, you know? I don't want my traditional art to be "perfect". And my friend was very chuffed with the results.

    Your "Bob Ross" painting is simply stunning by the way! ❤️


    @dblonde Creating acoustic instruments from scratch!? 🤯 That's one helluva talent, and yes, that is art, at least to me. And the instruments pictured are absolutely well crafted, mate.

    And, your drawings are so beautiful and colourful!


    @Pxlhg Bloody brilliant work! On an old iPhone no less. I wonder if it'll work on my A16 iPad. Seems the app and its two IAPs are free now.


    @sigma79 Nothing spoilt about it, mate. That is one fucking impressive collection of art materials! Since I live in a carpeted flat, I tend to stay away from paints myself. I'm definitely about pastels, whether crayons (wax pastels) or oil pastels. Soft pastels are a no-no in case I accidentally drop crumbs on the carpet and they become embedded. The property manager would be very pissed come a random inspection, lol.

    One of these days, I will be able to afford Sennelier oil pastels. You have the big box of those, and I can't help but be a little envious (in a good way lol).

    Looking at the art piece you posted in the second reply, that's beautiful! Nothing lame about it, mate. That's the type of Abstract art they'd hang in either a gallery or an art museum (or both).

    Third reply, the studio space looks great so far. :) And, if you really need over 512gb of storage space, definitely go for an iPad Pro. If you don't need more than 512gb, I'll bet a current gen Air will get you to where you need, and you can save a few bucks.

  • @NeuM. Yes, its in oils, but not many colors. Red, blue, yellow, white, brown i think at the bottom. Its painted on a black canvas that i first covered with black gesso that was acrylic i belive, and let that dry. Then i layered top half of canvas with blue, the middle with red, blottom with blue. After that most of the time my brush had white paint loaded, when it mixed the underneath colors it blended on its own. The back canvas gives it instant shadow depth feeling. Its really a cool and fast way to lay down a scene.

    The only good mattress Iv ever bought.

    I dropped a box of oil pastel on.

    You could put clear plastic on carpet.

    Shoes.

    Shoes never leave plastic.

    Dust pan and brush ( as if working in a penicillin factory ) No contamination.

    You might like neocolor II although not quite as opaque as oil pastel ( but could still scribble on dark backgrounds )

    Lucky to have materials.

    Just with the pastels in pic. I could use giant neoart aquarelles plus neo color II. Then add oil pastel ( on giant paintings ) You wouldnt usually make giant paintings with oil pastel but with the wax. Bigger paintings can be made.

    Or make the wax pastel be water color for then adding soft pastel.

    You can actually wet soft pastel though ( for underpainting ) as to gain a map for next layer of soft pastel.

  • @sigma79 Clear plastic on carpet sounds like a perfect solution to be honest. I always leave my shoes by the door of my flat so they're there for when I need to get on the move. (Idk why the fuck 'Muricans always wear shoes indoors whereas most of the rest of the world doesn't do that, lol. Barefoot for me indoors.) I'll definitely invest in a cheap dust pan and brush. Also sounds like a good solution as well. Thanks mate for the pro tips. ❤️

    I haven't invested in Neocolors yet, because they are pretty fucking expensive (although worth it from the videos I have seen). Gonna vibe to this attached video in a sec. :)

    I didn't know one could wet soft pastels. That actually sounds cool not gonna lie.

  • Too cheap to use but feel the masterpiece is coming.

    Load my materials in a milk float.

    The wind in the hair.

    A perfect roll off the green ( A genuine Banksy )

    Joking.

    That would be a weird artist though.

    Cool beans bro.

    Quite like the old ladies paintings with the neocolors.

  • @sigma79 All artists are weird in one way or another, lol. 😂 We're an eclectic bunch, I'd say.

    Her painting was fantastic by the way. What a great video.


    @NeuM While ProCreate is a great app for digital art and cartooning, Art Set 4 is amazing for mimicking traditional art supplies! Gave it a go, and holy shit it's wonderful, mate!

  • Okay, I had originally planned to send this code to my friend Anja, but she showed me that it's only redeemable in the US. SO, if anyone in the US is looking for VizRef on me, first come first serve...
