Freaking Fantastic Ferris

Julian by Michael Ferris, Jr 2008


Hellooooo, fine art fans. This is soooo worth checking out. http://www.michaelferrisjr.com

Michael Ferris, Jr. is an accomplished artist whose works are... simply stated - brilliant. Recycled pieces give breath to his complex works of art. As he has stated (and I quite agree), these works are "bold patterns that recall Maori tattoos and Byzantine mosaics." The temperament and intriguing message of his work is one that seems to take aim at an intricate, 3D missive. I dare say that, were it possible, they're sculpted hallucinatory states captured in textural form.


Be sure to visit his site. We're incredibly lucky to be able to ferret out an endless source of artists' works. For some of us, these artists are an inspirational feast. Bon Appetit! Mr. Ferris' work is a veritable banquet for the eyes. Be sure to check out his "Rosemarie". She seems to be putting on an aloof demeanor but she still seems - well, you tell me.

Madness in tangible beauty. That's what I see. Love this stuff!

Seriously now...

Having posted a reaffirmation or two to get my blog going again, work will begin in earnest - or at least as much as any procrastinator can do anway. Gee, that sounded like a dirty word... Anyway, yesterday I joined ARTISTADAY. It's what I hope to utilize more and more. Useful inspiration and in this case, exposure for the not-so-commercially successful and struggling arteeest.
Also, I'm plugging away on images. "Sexy Pear" is an original acrylic of mine that's popular with family and friends. So, I decided to add it for sale as a digital print (11"x14"). You can see it at my Etsy site, Gallerie Suze It's also available as a giclee on canvas. Almost the real thing, you know. Prices to come. Pears are sexy for their generous curves but this illustrates a pear's hidden appeal as well.
