| wim commented on 03.23.05 | | I'll follow ss's suggestion, put a few in my car and try to add them to matts (but the season is bad and most of my matts are on the move) |
|
|
| wim commented on 03.23.05 | | it all depends on the inspiration, given by the coulours as they happen to come, sometimes I like the result |
|
|
| psychobabble commented on 03.23.05 | | Wim, I do not fully understand what you are doing once you have selected your paint colour by mathematical reduction -painting stripes matt fashion, bar codes, like Basement Jaxx or what??? |
|
|
| wim commented on 03.23.05 | | good idea, as I don't start with number 1, but with #45 (a lousy tableau) |
|
|
| Smart Set commented on 03.23.05 | | We need to see one of your kmk paintings. Place one beside the next mattress you immortalise. |
|
|
| wim commented on 03.23.05 | | I call it "kmk" "knoeien met kleur" (in plain English "mwc" "messing with colours" |
|
|
| wim commented on 03.23.05 | | most of them are of course, because I don't know how to paint, never learned any techniques and mix all sorts of paint together, 852 was a difficult one, I found the number only in a paint to do hair, but it is destructive to canvas, giving strange results, primenumbers (if that is the correct word) are difficult as well (3-5-7-11-13-17-19 etc), they all have 2 numbers, but can have more colours as there is a #1 in ink, oil, acryl, in different brands, hence different colours. It is amusing because it is hard to explain in a shop that I am not looking for a specific colour, but a specific number |
|
|
| Smart Set commented on 03.23.05 | | Matthunting is not absurd. Why, it's the most sensible thing I've ever done. So, do you call it "painting by numbers"? And are your pictures all "abstracts"? |
|
|
| wim commented on 03.23.05 | | pb,again negative,it will have to wait untill I am in England I suppose, and that is not before june. SS it sounds absurd, but so is matthunting |
|
|
| Smart Set commented on 03.23.05 | | Well, that certainly clears that up, wim! Thanks. |
|
|
| wim commented on 03.23.05 | | the funny thing is the same brands probably have another code in Belgium, Daler Rowney negative, I'll try winston & newton now. It has nothing to do with Poirot, except perhaps the fact that it is a search. I paint, starting from numbers and deviding a chosen number in its full components (1084-542-271...-4-2-1) using the colours as a start for a painting, at the moment all of them 40cm x 40cm |
|
|
| psychobabble commented on 03.23.05 | | Windsor & Newton web site Oil colour is showing up as Terra Rosa (not sure if it is a matt finish .....or gloss) |
|
|
| Smart Set commented on 03.23.05 | | Probably. What does this have to do with Poirot? |
|
|
| Smart Set commented on 03.23.05 | | Winsor & Newton oil 1084 Cadmium Green Pale |
|
|
| wim commented on 03.23.05 | | do you think it is available in belgium? |
|
|
| Smart Set commented on 03.23.05 | | Daler-Rowney oil 1084 Viridian |
|
|
| wim commented on 03.23.05 | | hello SS, I am watching a Poirot and may need your help, actually the help of all of you. I am looking for a coulour by the number 1084, a small quantity, but it may be anything, lipstick, oil, acryl, metalpaint, it does not matter, as long as the number is right. So if you can help me out I would be most gratefull |
|
|
| Smart Set commented on 03.23.05 | | Yes, everything. |
|
|
| wim commented on 03.23.05 | | it would ruin everything |
|
|
| Smart Set commented on 03.22.05 | | wim and ART, don't you think it would take away any spontaneity if you had to email me your comments for proofreading before posting them? And what if I wasn't there when you wanted to comment? It's unworkable. I'm crazy for suggesting it. |
|
|
| wim commented on 03.22.05 | | we specialise in double Dutch, I know, it is because it comes out of our hearts, but your offer can be accepted SS, just let us know how. |
|
|
| ART-chitect commented on 03.22.05 | | it's far more than that ;-) |
|
|
| Rebecca commented on 03.22.05 | | I thought does't was just a typo though. |
|
|
| ART-chitect commented on 03.22.05 | | I would be pleased if you can help me sometimes, cause the words aren't always coming out like they should hé? But how to reach you? Who are you? Who am I? Meaning of life, etc.. |
|
|
| Smart Set commented on 03.22.05 | | ART, if you would like me to proofread your comments before you post them I'd be glad to. You and your dad are already writing in what some unreconstructed English-speaking chauvinists might call double Dutch ;-) |
|
|
| ART-chitect commented on 03.22.05 | | I want a translator for my birthday so that such mistakes are impossible...or we can all start writing in Dutch |
|

| Smart Set commented on 03.22.05 | | speling doens't ether |
