As the Sec 1s are doing the Louis Vuitton Monogram pattern design exercise today, I am uploading this interesting collaboration between Japanese artist Takashi Murakami and Louis Vuitton. Enjoy!

Here I am showing the steps for making your Self-portrait look like a Cubist work after Picasso. For those of you who are just visiting this blog, this is a Secondary One painting assignment. I will be showing further examples of this painting in the next few days to illustrate the process to the Sec Ones who are doing their self-portraits.

First you start off with an outline contour drawing of yourself.

Then you cube it like a Picasso!

…more to come!

There has been some unhappiness expressed with the Process Art Project. A few complained about having to spend so much. A few complained about having their ideas rejected. A few complained about the project being too difficult. A few complained about having to take down their work.

As the project title suggest, it is the Process that counts. Different ideas and projects will have different processes. And it is not just about the process of doing, but I think we should all focus on the process of THINKING, both linearly and visually. This is probably the main reason why some projects are accepted, while others are not.

Real Art is more than looking pretty and nice. It is more than a pretty face or a pretty message. Its only legitimate goal is to shock the audience, unsettle people, make them think, make real changes to the world. Anything else is pure decoration.

What would you do if you want to make a message in your name?
