sanity of the mind can be provoked by anything out of the usual

robert k commented on 10.27.06
what are you convincing them of?

wim commented on 10.27.06
good idea, but my son, jaak and I use matresses on a yearly bases in our village to exhibit, project, convionce people, but yes, it could be a good idea

robert k commented on 10.27.06
here in the new world we remember you well. btw ever thought of painting with a mattress as your canvas?

wim commented on 10.27.06
the difficult thing is finding articles matching a number, paint does not number in a logic serial in numbers over 1000

wim commented on 10.27.06
as I am flemish, it has to be simple, just remember the primitifs

wim commented on 10.27.06
sorry, make that canvas 40*40cm, my studio is too small for 340*40cm, although I like the idea of doi,g something big, but one can go big by projection

robert k commented on 10.27.06
seems simple enough

wim commented on 10.27.06
I am not. I just pick a number, take all its dividers, buy paint or whatever goes with the number and make something in a series of 100 on a canvas 340*40cm (for instance 45 = 1*45, 3*15, 5*9)( I paint using 1-3-5-9-15-45). Primenumbers give me thye shivers, and in the past SS has helped me find inspiration on certain numbers. My next number is 1252, using 1/2/4/313/626/1252

robert k commented on 10.27.06
why are you doing a paint-by-number?

wim commented on 10.27.06
