Movement V

Movement V - Vangelis • El Greco My sona Mushanga.

I opted for a simpler face-style for him, because it is more comfy to draw haha (in my reg style I do draw turtles with beaks and different kind of shells; more like body armor plates with leathery thick skin between for maximum movement and flexibility, 's just how I headcanon turtles in my stories)

But anyway for Mushange I played around a bit, opted for a simple face and went ham on the shell. I already had this concept in mind of putting glass or rather, inkwells on their back but I was not 100% sold on the idea, yet. And then I went on vacation to Venice last week and visited Murano there and can you tell I saw a lot of Murano glass and got inspired by all that glass and colours????? Anyway so yahhhh Mushangas scutes are made up of thick glass filled with inks. He paints with those. They sometimes change in colours depending on were his art takes him, default's turquoises, greens and blues in the middle as those are his fav colours to work with and the smaller ones on the side hold all the reds, oranges, yellows, violets and pinks. (and sometimes you will only find black and gold and silver and copper in there)

I have blue hair on one side of my head (other side is shaved) so blue headscarf it is for Mushanga. I will probably upload art with him on my main more often than not mainly because there is were the furry audience resides and keep this account fanwork related. I just figured I show Mushanga here at least once so you know what face to associate me with in the future XD (notice the changed icon)

Stefan Kürten’s paintings of houses and Rita McBride’s wall coverings (and other sculptures) work with each other to question the concept of home, as well as the objects you might find within one. The exhibition, titled I Continue To Live In My Glass House, is on view at Alexander and Bonin until 3/25/23.

From the press release-

Stefan Kürten is known for detailed depictions of homes. Although constructed from both found and invented imagery, his homes feel known or experienced. The slippage between archetypes, memories, and dreams are central to his compositions. Set in lush landscapes and mysteriously unpeopled, Kürten’s homes evoke modern art or design museums with iconic sculptures and furniture viewable inside and outside of their transparent walls.

Rita McBride’s work invites us to reconsider structures and design elements such as ductwork, awnings, wall coverings and other utilitarian objects. McBride represents a bentwood chair in Murano glass, fastened together by a material that evokes spun candy or plastic wrap. Chair (1999) comments on the life of a domestic object whose usage necessitates an inventive approach to repair or stabilization.

McBride is also showing Particulates, an art installation that combines lasers with ambient dust and water molecules, will be on view at the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles starting 3/27/23.
