I did my first Art Jam ever in Hong Kong Tuesday last week for work with the students. The idea of the whole thing is to “give a painting room for everyone.” So basically you just get in there with unlimited paint, paintbrushes, an easel, a palette, etc. and paint your heart out. It was fantastic. I chose to do a replica of Edvard Munch’s ”The Scream,” a favorite of mine that I had already done back in high school (that one was brilliant, modestly speaking, with nail-scratch-like-effects and everything, but my dad lost that painting in the process of intending to frame it). This one is a much more toned down version, but I’m still pretty happy about how it turned out. Unfortunately, I don’t have a picture of the final product, but it’ll probably turn up in the blog sometime in the future. I still have no idea what to do with it (should I give it as a present to someone or should I hang it up in my flat?). Also, somewhere in my house in Manila, is a half-finished attempt to replicate Salvador Dali’s La persistència de la memòria (The Persistence of Memory)… it remains to be completed. (I blame the ants).
