DeAngel: Blood Splatter Paintings
November 23, 2012 § Leave a Comment
At first glance, I thought these dynamic paintings by DeAngel were someone having been dropped form a great height and inevitably splattered. But given they are called ‘emergining’, I presume, they depict a re-birth rather than death.

Bristol based artist Rose Sanderson did a series of ‘Bugs on Books’ art pieces, so I’m presuming this is a natural progression taking her influences from insects, birds and anatomy, that she should do ‘organs on books’.

Dutch born artist Herman Henstenburgh [1667 - 1726] produced these still life watercolours circa 1700. These paintings progress the floral notoriety of the dutch artists into combine the scientific approach to still life with something who’s emphasis was on decoration. Read more about him here.

Juan Gatti

Born in Buenos Aires in 1950, artist Juan Gatti has produced a mouthwatering range of anatomic collages from the “Ciencias Naturales” exhibiton.
The sheer detail of the flora and fauna drenched with colour and an animal prop entwined with the muscle man reminds me of a cross between Vesalius and William Morris! I urge you to look at more of his work here and the bio of the man here.
