BESS' ART JOURNAL: Through the eyes of an artist

Maria Jones-Phillips

“The self does not divide but multiplies in incongruous ways, incongruous to you that is. It forms within its own nature a potential wealth of other personality types that indeed populate your conception of the world and form those friendly faces that you meet within your so-called day-to-day experience. Life is not intrinsic to the manifestation of these other selves, for life is a term that can only apply to the human construct. We as your caretakers so to speak are just beyond the remit of your understanding of time. We perch atop the fence of your awareness like crows bringing the warmth and wisdom of the dark to the brightness of your cave. We bring light to you in ways that you do not presently comprehend. We furnish your worlds with cherished thoughts and indeterminable wisdoms that cloud your skies and pepper the land with things to look at, admire and experience as extensions of your selves. Your personhoods expressed through nature and creature-hood, through blustering winds and swelling tides. The moods of the earth match your own national and individual moods. One does not follow on from the other but all swim happily in unison within the tide of memories that link you all. A body of memories that is as vital as any living organism, of which the you that you know forms an important strand.”

Sidiris

Put simply, without light we would see nothing, as obvious as that may sound. However, we judge physical beauty by the way in which light waves refracts from surfaces to be interpreted by our eyes according to our subjective views. Light is one way in which life is made beautiful, and full of hope, photography […]Read Post ›

Quiet Contemplation

Quiet Contemplation

The day is long as it is wide, But if you measure it with your finger, It’ll only be ‘this’ long. Not quite long enough, But enough to point to that which you desire. I want that. And that, And that, But not that. And so, I sit in quiet contemplation Of a life yet […]

Diary of a Person Being Human

Maybe This Time; and a Portrait of Malcolm X.

I’m in the process of creating a new website whereby I can begin selling my art online in a more professional manner. As some of you know, I was once a seasoned blogger and knew my way around the WordPress tools. I can’t make head nor tail of what I’m supposed to be doing with […]

Working in Monochrome.

Originally posted on Maria Jones-Phillips Art:
As an artist I usually prefer to work in colour. However, as with photography, when devising a composition, one of the important questions to ask yourself is: How do I best represent my subject? Sometimes, monochrome is a better fit. Let me explain why. Family – Graphite on bristol…
