Colasa































































He is (emphasize on the is) the msot influential artist to my style and who inspired me. I is also one of the first artist that i interviewed for m friend's blog. He also propelled me into the ink madness and the quick brushy strokes that i have now. He is what i strife to be, and become even better although that is very hard. Colasa has a mix of styles with stencil painting and quick paintings that ranges from precise beauty to explosive expressive paintings. His use of black and white symbolizes the black and white of society, he believes that there is no need for other colors because he wants to use the image and lines that  he created to substitute the colors that he is not applying. His blends of stencil and painting is magnificent, i have tried numerous way to achieve his style with no success. It's perfectly blended and creates the smoky effect  have longed for for so long. He told me to do that i have to use a special paint, construction paint to blend things and create the rich material. I really want to try his but i have to find a way to get the material first. Anyway, this is my most influential artist and his works are the final stage i hope i can accomplish when i am done with college.

  1. The first moment that i saw his work, it reminded me of Jason's stencil paintings. Colasa shows art in a variety of forms using various materials and space, which is quite interesting as he makes fine art such as normal paintings to art on products that has a more commercial sense to it.
    I know that you really love this artist but i think you included too many photos, it would be nice if you just pick some of his most representative works.

  2. I love this artist's work. Even though most of time that he uses black and white as the representative colors, but still, the paint dripping down and the washed down colors give his work more layers and texture. Messy but arty.
