The Art of Corlen Kruger

29 January 2007

HI everyone
Damn man , i have been so un-creative , just dont seem to have any really crazy ideas or insperation at the moment, so i have been using this time just to mess around with artmaterials and try some techniques etc, in the vain hope that somthing insperational will come along and bite me in the ass…….nothing has bitten me yet.
oh well, i was trying out canvass paper, its basically treated paper that has a canvass like material, it works pretty well i must say, i cant say the same for the painting, but for now i am just in practice mode…….so be patient guys somthing will happen eventually.

I might take this painting into photoshop and give it a little digital treatment but, for now here is the un-treated version

Another rough artwork in the pipeline, i think i am going to leave this one for a while and come back to it at a later stage, i realized i am using alot of reds and oranges in my artworks, man i have got to break away from those colour palettes and try another range of colours.

Dark vamp

6 December 2006

Hi All
Well I have been having a bit of a dry spell, you know artists block everything you try just doesnt work or come out right etc, well I think I managed to break the block and learn in the process what my work has been lacking, lots of contrast, I get caught up in in all the little bits but seem to miss the entire overall of the image, well if I am correct in my statement, then hopefully from here on I will be producing better art……lets see what happens.
So here is my first go, its a very old piece that I decided to fix, glad I did……see every artist needs his muse even if she is blood stained and demands sacrifices.
enjoy….

Big eyes

23 November 2006

A Small sketch I had floating around in my sketchbook, decided to give her a little digital treatment, but I wanted to keep her inquisitiveness look she had in the original pencil drawing, I want to try to do more stuff like this but its hard knowing the undead is knocking on the door in the back of my mind……enjoy
