So Sand?!?!?!

Sand, no longer just something that gets in you pants when you're at the beach, sand is now art! Sand art is the practice of modeling sand into an artistic form, such as a sand sculpture, sand painting, or sand bottles. A sand castle is a type of sand sculpture resembling a miniature building, often a castle. Watch this video and you will never look at sand the same way again! Sand art is not only for sand castles but as you saw also amazing canvases and drawings. Not in the sand but with it. Hopefully you have opened you mind to art with my blog, I hope I can keep expanding it. Enjoy.

Pop Art.

Pop Art is also known as popular art. It was at its peak in the 1950's. Andy Warhol among many others were celebrated in this era of art. It originated in England and migrated here in the early '5o's. Most of the time graffiti artist use pop art as their style. It is a real sketchy style. Many young artist and teens voice through this style because it is so free. It is so subliminal there is always some thing hidden around the corner of the canvas.

Any way, I love this style. Not only can it be painted but you can create stencils and sculptures. It's the bigger the better with this case.

Josh Keyes

Josh Keyes is an artist that I look up to. He was born in Tacoma, Washington. He currently lives in Portland, Oregon. In 1988 he graduated from Yale and went on to pursuit his dream job of being an artist.
The paintings that are posted are called NP Entangle 2, and NP Burst. Both are oil paintings and are done at a very large scale.
Josh Keyes studied computer graphics and modern art, which is evident in the art that is shown.
