I’ve had a change in plans for the massive, clean wall within the studio. I’ll share extra about that later, however what this transformation of plans means is that I wanted a brand new thought for the wall subsequent to my desk.
I’ve been serious about it for a couple of days now, and I stored arising with the usual concepts — cabinets, massive paintings, and so on. I actually don’t need or want cabinets on this space. I additionally don’t need or want something like a bulletin board or white board. I needed one thing enjoyable, colourful, and sudden.
So yesterday, as I used to be attempting to get a few of these last initiatives completed up within the studio, I got here throughout this field of resin petris that I made a number of years in the past. I’ve 43 of them, and so they’re in all assorted colours.
So now my plan is to make use of all of those as some kind of “artwork set up” on that wall. My preliminary thought was to do an entire assortment of them organized as a grid on a white background (in all probability plywood or MDF), and them body all of them collectively.
It could principally be the identical thought I used for the hallway toilet, however on a a lot greater scale. I solely used 9 of them for the hallway toilet, however I took this down months in the past after I was attempting to resolve on wallpaper for that loo. I received’t be placing them again up when the brand new wallpaper is installled.
However once more, my thought was to do one thing related, besides that as a substitute of utilizing solely 9 of them, I’d use as many as I might, like eight rows of 5.
And if I did that, I’d put them in a easy white body. I wouldn’t do a darkish wooden body for the studio.
And I’d unfold them out greater than what’s proven right here. This was the biggest white background I had available, and I needed to see what they’d appear like. However I believe they’d want slightly more room, which suggests they’d take up extra room on that wall, which is an effective factor.
I actually like how all of this colour appears subsequent to the cupboards.
However then I got here throughout a stash of 5″ x 5″ gallery wrapped canvases. I completely love how this appears.
I don’t suppose I’d be capable to use all 43 of them, and even 40 of them, if I mount each on a canvas. However oh my goodness, I really like how this appears!
I imply, if this isn’t “me”, I don’t know what’s.
After all, my foremost concern is that I’d be including extra squares. However you understand what? At this level, I believe I’m simply going to lean into the repetition of squares and rectangles within the room. I really like squares and rectangles. It’s the form that I’m drawn to probably the most. (I’ll nearly at all times select squares and rectangles over circles and ovals for absolutely anything.) And if I like one thing, what higher area to essentially lean into it greater than my very own studio?
So in the event you’re questioning about that huge, clean wall, right here’s the plan for it. That wall will now have the panorama design, the massive colourful calendar, a TV, and a few cabinets. Yep, I’m placing all of that on the one wall. I simply determined to go for it and throw the whole lot at that wall. 😀 We’ll all have to attend and see if my “the whole lot however the kitchen sink” thought for the massive wall seems.
