I can imagine printing these three and sticking them to a heavy paper and giving the lot a thick cover of gloss.
What do you think?
Later: I am doing just that today, Friday, 21 March, 2008 harder than I thought, the buckling, as you might have guessed. Canvas on canvas? I have printed on canvas using my Epson R2400 but it is blurry, I need to get the profile right, how do I do that?
Maybe get as roll of wall paper? Paper on paper?
I am working on a 600 x 600 acrylic on canvas, a stylised of the view of the bush at Mt. Lyford. Here is how far I have got with it, a reasonable photo of how it looks.

I have been testing out how it might develop using the Tablet… quite fun, and I have another digital version brewing before I commit to paint!

I have some prints for sale on the up and coming, rather wonderful New Zealand website FELT. An online shop & Gallery that specialises in hand made arts. I selected these as they are diverse , fresh, and because I think they have a personal touch in their line, my hand is in them.
Here is one from my Thousand Sketches, click on it to see the others I have there. There are five in all so far. The editions of 25 are exclusive to Felt.

Subscribe in the sense of get posts by email, or in your Feed Reader. If you don’t have one try this Google one, its great. I subscribe to blogs I occasionally read in Google and the ones where I want every post by email.
One thing though, I update my posts usually a few times before I get to the next one, fix typos, as links and so on, the email just goes out once, the first rough time. So if you get a post by email and it is of interest click on the heading to pop back here.
With the new keep me notified button in the comments, I think the quality of discussion can go up quite a bit.
If you leave a comment – tell us about your blog if you have one.
I am still mucking around with Microformats, Id do it on my Psyberspace blog but it is harder to fiddle there on WordPress.com (must change it over to my own server. some time)
Have added a hCard to the bottom of the sidebar in the main view.
Some software will show up what is there eg Operator, Firefox add-on.

It is not nothing to do with art. Here is a hCard for example for Andy Warhol. It is part of wanting to make maps of connections between paintings, art networks as net artworks. So I am exploring these Microformats and FOAF and JSON all things Google are getting into.

Making links between painting and so on is definitely art for me, and it is very psyber. I will be blogging and linking these discussions in the Psyberspace blog.

Paint, A Manual of Pictorial Thought & Practical Advice
I am reading it today
A messy rambling book both in its images, text and layout, but interesting and inspiring in that it makes it all look doable.
This is from the Amazon site, and puts it well:
From Library Journal:
Most art manuals tend toward large, impressive photos with little text. This one is packed with 1500 illustrations and an unusually rich text. Camp’s style tends to personal observation, autobiographical touches, references to art history, and fresh inspiration. A teacher at the Slade School of Fine Art, London, and a member of the Royal Academy of Arts, he believes in copying from masters but avoiding academic dryness. Libraries should also consider his previous, excellent work Draw: How To Master the Art (DK, 1994).

I have just added this plugin. Makes total sense to me, how else is a blog really a conversation tool? Usually it is not. So leave a comment, tick the box & I will respond. Testing it still.
