Sure, why not.
Hi. I'm a bit of a name collector -- what I sign artwork with is J Lurhstaap R, a derivation of my legal name, so you might as well go with that. I've been working seriously on art for ten years and at least striving for a career for five, though not especially successfully. Many are called, few are chosen, et cetera ad nauseam, I guess.
Lately I've been breaking away from the representative work I've done for most of my career and started moving in a much more symbolic and abstract direction depending on my mood... I don't have much of the symbolic/subconscious-expression stuff scanned but here's some examples of the abstract. I thrive on critique -- if I'm posting here it'll be for that purpose more than anything else. Thanks in advance. :)
( Recent Abstracts.Collapse )Here's a few examples of representative work, too, though all but the Garden are kind of old. I've been doing that so long it doesn't interest me as much anymore. Fractals and abstract is more my speed right now. I'm a dilletante in many respects, art above all.
( Representatives.Collapse )I'll be scanning some of the recent representative work tonight or tomorrow I think, but I want to have a larger group than I already have before I do so. Each one of these is about twice the size of my scanner, so assembling them post-scan is a big enough job that I prefer to do it in big clumps to get it out of the way.
(FYI -- Since as noted I do this as a job, most of what I post unless otherwise noted can be assumed available. Starting with the abstracts shown here. Comment if you're interested. Thank you.)
