Covid Free by David Boyle

I paint for my own personal escapism and to offer the door to days of romance and adventure to others. I like to stick to themes- British policemen, nuns, Alice in Wonderland but I always return to women on large motorcycles and the jungle adventures because they delight me personally. Sometimes mothers buy them for them for their children and they tell me the kids take them with them when they leave home. The thought someone grew up with one of my pictures and still liked it as a teenager is very rewarding.

Reece by Reece

Exhibition 5th of September to 19th

Reece was born and raised in Taranaki where he originally found his passion for art while he was in school. He then made the move to Wellington as he wanted a change in his life and soon came to Pablo’s in 2009. Art, he recalls is part of his life and absolutely loves it. Through the use of paints and water colour he acknowledges aspects of the environment, nature such as his pieces on leaves and lemons, and animals.

With the help of Chris his tutor, his pieces started to add up and soon realised he had enough for an exhibition of his own “Reece by Reece”.

Reece is proud of what he has accomplished and hopes to sell some pieces and enjoy his moment.

FUNKY FIGURES EXHIBITION - Tuesday April 16th to Monday April 29th

 

FUNKY FIGURES

Inspired by the work of Tetsuo Aoki

Artworks created in a workshop block run by Morag Stokes at Pablos Art Studios.

During this workshop block we looked at the works of Japanese wood engraver Tetsuo Aoki for ideas and inspiration. He makes wood block prints of people with unreal proportions and works with black, white and greys.  He makes action packed compositions with his funky figures, so we had a go at something similar.

We made a selection of stylised drawings of the clothed human figure in different poses (We used volunteers for this).

We played with unusual proportions, like very small heads, big feet or hands etc. We learned about stylising ‘people poses’, using them to make dynamic drawing compositions with the help of tracing paper and paper cut-outs.

We worked with a single colour in the medium of your choice (paint, ink, coloured pencils etc), and learned about creating bold tonal variations from those colours.

The artists really enjoyed this workshop and took the works to different places with interesting and surprising results.
