Joe Digiulio Workshop -- Fabulous Experience!

Untitled pieces from an abstract acrylic art workshop by Joe Digiulio. Very instructive, energetic and with lots of personal attention. The annual Art of the Carolinas is a great celebration of art put on by Jerry's Artarama in Raleigh, NC and well worth attending. There are lots of courses by well-known artists in various genres and media, along with a fabulous trade display of the latest in artist materials.

Big Bang, Acrylic on canvas board, 12"x16"

This what I imagine the 'big bang' would have looked like -- a cauldron of thermonuclear reactions pulsing through space and creating our beautiful earth.

Bold Strokes

Sometimes wielding the brush with high energy is the only way to come out of a slump. Covering the canvas with a sense of urgency helps me to get past the barrier of inertia after a period of not painting.


Modernity is done with a large brush and knife. The dominant color is black which I don't use a lot but in this case it just seemed right.
