support independent art

if you like to support independent artists and know kickstarter, did you know that only USA residents can start a kickstarter campaign? i know now,because i tryed to make one and i live in germany. that sucks. so i was thinking, how to do a fundraise for my new projects...and i found an app at my homepage .

i am asking for a little help to get an idea out of my head on some canvas. i am planning to create one or some series of  paintings for a real exhibition and so i need canvas, brushes, paint...ect...i am working hard but my budget is small and since i found out that kickstarter is only for people who have an adress in the USA, i am trying to make my own. i will update my creating process on twitter and facebook almost in realtime with a lot of photos of the work in progress. every donation is very much appreciated and will be used only to buy canvas, brushes, paint,etc...

the ideas i have are

1. "the abusive fairy tales"  

2."sunflowerdaggerdreams" 

and 3. "internuts"

but it very much depends on you how many of my ideas will become "real".

 every peanut counts!


if you want and can support me ,please go to my webside and use the pay pal button,
if you want but can´t i just ask you to share this post with as many friends as you can.
i thank you very much

and here is what i did so far, the ideas and the work in progress of this fundraised project:

the sunflowerdaggerdreams idea

the internuts idea

the abusive fairy tales idea...

thank you very much

the destiny manifesto and life

hi friends,

long time no blog...

i am going to be featured in a book...this book will be out

soon, i hope. it´s a wonderful collection of poems written by facebook friend and sp fan (yes that´s important,because we wouldn´t have that deep conversations without the music connection) Robert DelRio.

in this book you´ll see almost all my artworks (at least all i thought i can show public).

i reedited all of them for the book. so you´ll get 50 poems and my art on every page. as much as i know,and that´s not too much, there´ll be one item that´s not mine

the books name is THE MANIFESTO OF DESTINY and i will definitely keep you updated and provide you with links when it´s for sale online.

so...life...art is hard...hahaha. it´s getting better...or at least i´m pretending that it gets better...

i wanna create big paintings but i have no money to buy big canvas, so i have to do this project in my head until i am able to go to the art store. blablabla

i made a shirt design for a band but got no reply if they like it yet...cross your fingers...it would be so cool :)

my twitter is recovering slowly...i have 119 followers now...damn you twitter for suspending my @nataschaartworx account (read post about that).

i also reanimated my zazzle shop and added some new t-shirts and posters...here is the link:http://www.zazzle.de/natascha_artworx

some stuff i made in the last 3 month:

i taped my camera to my easel and recorded myself doing a sketch on canvas.

now you see 30 minutes stuffed into 3,5 minutes…speed painting :)

the music is by the wonderful band COSIO , they broke up but i love theyr album THE CACOPHONIST is one of my favorites.

i used the song “pearls to swine” with permission of the band.

Lyrics:

PEARLS TO SWINE

your neck line is like pearls to swine

in the company of this crowd

without a word you summon me near

by the contours of your back

if your body be braille

i´ll read a novel

and never miss my sight

your love is like milk and honey

unto the wandering israelite

forgive the dirt under findernails

as i kiss the hem of your garment

pay no mind to the lack of refine

no debutante´s love could fair

my lust offends even harlequins

with downward eyes

but your love it stares confidently

into my beguilded face

and the weeping willows echo my cries

the moth he knows my plight

your love is like monarchs mating

and falling to earth in mid-flight

and now i´ll spend some time with my morning coffee...

♥ & peace to all of you

natascha

merry christmas

i hope you all have a merry christmas, a good meal with friends/ family and a lotta love...
i feel the urge to update this today...ignoring my carpal tunnel syndrome as long as i can...

well, what happened in my little art bubble? i had some custom pieces to draw for christmas, portraits in pencil after photos, they saved my big a... this christmas, so: thank you all who purchased my cards and ordered custom art , i love you for that!!!

pencil drawing with a little digital editing (the stars + i changed the color into blue-ish instead of pencil-grey)

some tv stars i don´t know...no i know it´s not really art in the art sense,but work in the artwork sense...i need to pay bills,like we all do...

and a very bad and quick photo of this piece, i didn´t even had the time to scan it, because i had so much pain in my right hand,i waited too long to draw it because i thought the pain would go away, but it didn´t. so i had to draw it fast, and while i was at work with it, the guy came to my home and wanted to pick it up already...so, that´s why i have no good scan of it, and you see i´m a bad bad photographer...

and what else did i do...ah i created a band artwork for a new band of my friend hollie...sadly it already broke up,but...hey...i can do stuff like that and maybe there comes someone else who needs artwork for music? i love to do that.

 

well...that´s pretty much it...i gotta keep this post short...

see ya on the internet

me @ work

i found a folder with old drawings i made back when i was 13 years old at school...whe had a project week at the zoo...you can imagine how much i loved that.
