Paint With Your Head

  • Sydney Link

Paint with your head is an idea influenced by the Oulipo Poetic Group. They worked within strict sets of rules, often denying themselves the use of letters or words to write with to enhance their creativity. I applied this thinking to painting, using your hair as a paintbrush, which would make you unable to look at the marks you were making or the thing you were looking at to paint. This was played out in a life drawing session, with some excellent results.
