VISUAL ART BY ARNOLD CHAO
MY ART STUDIO VIDEOS
Samples of my frenetic brushwork -- a labor-intensive technique I've been refining for years to create a tactile, kinetic aesthetic. Also, composition progressions.
From start to finish, see my painting process along with my live original keyboard composition.
Bold, thick brushstrokes.
One of my larger artworks based on the abstract depiction of the personality of a monk.
- Sketch on canvas > expand out from center in oil > go from warm to cool > balance the composition.
Photo > sketch > painting sections > final composition
A frenzy of brushstrokes merge into a meditative abstract.
A dramatic shift in rendering forms from big brushstrokes to palette-knife applications.
Inspired by blots of Electrophoresis and pattern-focused contemporary architecture.
- Heiroglyphic forms interact in this portrait-oriented piece.
