I’ve had a change in plans for the massive, clean wall within the studio. I’ll share extra about that later, however what this variation of plans means is that I wanted a brand new concept for the wall subsequent to my desk.
I’ve been occupied with it for a number of days now, and I saved arising with the usual concepts — cabinets, massive art work, and so forth. I actually don’t need or want cabinets on this space. I additionally don’t need or want something like a bulletin board or white board. I needed one thing enjoyable, colourful, and sudden.
So yesterday, as I used to be making an attempt to get a few of these last initiatives completed up within the studio, I got here throughout this field of resin petris that I made a number of years in the past. I’ve 43 of them, they usually’re in all assorted colours.
So now my plan is to make use of all of those as some type of “artwork set up” on that wall. My preliminary concept was to do a complete assortment of them organized as a grid on a white background (in all probability plywood or MDF), and them body all of them collectively.
It might mainly be the identical concept I used for the hallway toilet, however on a a lot greater scale. I solely used 9 of them for the hallway toilet, however I took this down months in the past once I was making an attempt to resolve on wallpaper for that rest room. I received’t be placing them again up when the brand new wallpaper is installled.
However once more, my concept was to do one thing comparable, besides that as an alternative of utilizing solely 9 of them, I’d use as many as I may, like eight rows of 5.
And if I did that, I’d put them in a easy white body. I wouldn’t do a darkish wooden body for the studio.
And I’d unfold them out greater than what’s proven right here. This was the most important white background I had readily available, and I needed to see what they’d seem like. However I feel they’d want a bit more room, which suggests they’d take up extra room on that wall, which is an effective factor.
I actually like how all of this shade appears to be like subsequent to the cupboards.
However then I got here throughout a stash of 5″ x 5″ gallery wrapped canvases. I completely love how this appears to be like.
I don’t assume I’d be capable of use all 43 of them, and even 40 of them, if I mount each on a canvas. However oh my goodness, I like how this appears to be like!
I imply, if this isn’t “me”, I don’t know what’s.
In fact, my important concern is that I’d be including extra squares. However what? At this level, I feel I’m simply going to lean into the repetition of squares and rectangles within the room. I like squares and rectangles. It’s the form that I’m drawn to probably the most. (I’ll nearly all the time select squares and rectangles over circles and ovals for absolutely anything.) And if I like one thing, what higher house to essentially lean into it greater than my very own studio?
So in case you’re questioning about that large, clean wall, right here’s the plan for it. That wall will now have the panorama design, the massive colourful calendar, a TV, and a few cabinets. Yep, I’m placing all of that on the one wall. I simply determined to go for it and throw the whole lot at that wall. 😀 We’ll all have to attend and see if my “the whole lot however the kitchen sink” concept for the massive wall seems.
