If you're an artist, what kind of art do you make?: Drawing, Painting, Performance

About my artwork: His work, what is happening? Whether he is dealing with canvas, space,paper or wall, he deals with a stage were something is happening and even if he deliberately intends that nothing should happen, even this is an event, an adventure. An event of fact, surprise, coincidence, action and outcome. Searching for the power of himself as a painter. The fact the materials exist as matter even if some meaning comes out of the painting, pencil, colour and other mediums remain as ‘things’ as stubborn substances whose obstinacy in ‘being there’ nothing can destroy. A method of painting concerned with natural growth with a need to express his feelings rather than illustrate them. Technique is a means of arriving at a statement for Ronan. When painting he has a general knowledge of what he is about. "I can control the paint there is no accident just as there is no beginning or end.
Sometimes i lose the painting but i have no fear of changes ,of destroying the image because a painting has a life of it's own , i try to let it live."

"inspiration,she never visits the lazy" ...also check out a german painter called norbert schwontowski on the cfa berlin website....good luck ronan

At 11:51am on May 21, 2009, James (aka: Jiggy) said…: I guess i use the word 'graffiti' as a point of view not in the sense of the work itself but reflect upon seeing the photo - the walls, how it looks attached and left (like an actual graffiti) with mix emotion of quick/full colour/ meaningful & meaningless together almost , in my opinon, giving a certain character to it's maker like 'he came, did a painting, and went'.
