He moves with confidence from left to right like American carousel animals do (I've read that British carousel horses moved from right to left). I imagine that he is the real thing, a new kind of creature, like in a fairy story. A man's body with a horse's head and some tiny bat wings. Though, he might be an imposter, a man in elaborate armor with a fancy horse head helmet and a beautiful, magic sword. His blue horse is almost tangled in a border of designs and from the warm yellow and pink background those mysterious eye-leaf creatures hover and swirl! </p></blockquote><p> </p><blockquote style="border: none; margin: 0 0 0 40px; padding: 0px;"><p style="text-align: left;"> I really enjoyed working on this painting, sort of, "making friends" with the characters in it. Do you ever read a book and feel sad when you finish because you have to say goodbye to the characters you've grown close to? That's how I felt about the painting "Entering The House Of My Heroes". I wrote a note to myself while working on the painting, "If you ever want to see a creature like this you have to create him".</p></blockquote><br /><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisUEBtvr4v-mZscfPlRZa7dJgFhDRQT0iwo1CMUMuMRRH8jFkyb3B7YXbwsY20-X_Hv1R0Vnq2nEowHyFAyp7KC7ItRhF_-k_krPztUYFm1t986Apx5MYE34rkZJk8ZbdwIFpAEw/s792/Entering+The+House+Of+My+Heroes+John+York+2020+small.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="792" data-original-width="594" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisUEBtvr4v-mZscfPlRZa7dJgFhDRQT0iwo1CMUMuMRRH8jFkyb3B7YXbwsY20-X_Hv1R0Vnq2nEowHyFAyp7KC7ItRhF_-k_krPztUYFm1t986Apx5MYE34rkZJk8ZbdwIFpAEw/w480-h640/Entering+The+House+Of+My+Heroes+John+York+2020+small.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><div><br /></div><blockquote style="border: none; margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px; padding: 0px; text-align: left;"> Copyright 2020 by John Randall York, All rights reserved by the artist</blockquote><p></p><p></p><blockquote style="border: none; margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px; padding: 0px;"><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p></blockquote><p></p>Random Yorkhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16608993277371412403noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26702567.post-40688004513034560332020-03-13T06:34:00.002-07:002020-03-13T06:34:49.566-07:00Happy Friday The 13th!Friday The 13th! What a gift! It's a little reminder of the fun and scary things I do love so much. Halloween is still far away but today we can enjoy some of the creepy thrill derived from the rich heritage of monsters, vampires, ghosts and evil space creatures.<br />
<br />
I hope you get the chance to watch a scary flick or read, at least, a short horror story today.<br />
To add enjoyment to this numerically wonderful day I am posting some of favorite ""scary" artworks.<br />
Best wishes for a "Horrible" Friday The 13th! JRY<br />

<br />
Almost every time we go to San Antonio I visit The Alamo and make a painting on the spot. There is usually a group of school kids who who notice what I am up to and suddenly swarm about me like a flock of birds with the teachers catching up to rein them in. The children are encouraging, loading me up with positive comments, amazed by how quickly the painting is done.One group cheered for me as I finished a painting of the San Fernando Cathedral, what a rush!<br />
<br />
Usually I sit on a low wall across from The Alamo in whatever bit of shade is available and paint on a quarter sheet of watercolor paper (140 lb) taped to a piece of Masonite.<br />
It gets hot very quickly in San Antonio and I am anxious to finish and move on!<br />
<br />
I try not to think about the work but to enjoy it. The paint is applied quickly using my bottled water from Walgreen's Pharmacy. Usually three brushes are used, a 1 inch Flat, a #8 Round and a #4 Round, all synthetic. The paint I use is an eclectic mix of Daniel Smith, M. Graham, Winsor Newton, QOR (I like their Cobalt Teal), whatever works and looks good. Almost always I will use some Lukas Opaque White for highlights, a black watercolor pencil for some shadows and texture and a fine point Sharpie (or some black, permanent pen) for line work.<br />
<br />
As I sit and paint my mind wanders and it is hard to not imagine the lives sacrificed on that piece of land in 1836. Usually, when I finish, I stroll the area and read the plaques on the lawn and am always touched by the stories of bravery. I am very proud to be a Texan.<br />
<br />
Wait! Here's the best part... if it's really hot, and if I think I did a good job, I visit the Haagen-Daz ice cream shop for something wonderful!<br />

I really did not want to get out of the house! I didn't want to get too hot or get rained on or explain myself to curious people.<br />
Two main purposes drove me to get started. One, I wanted to see "what I was made of" what would I produce? How would my on-the-spot paintings come out? And two, my town was changing. Big trees and buildings that were personally significant were going away.<br />
So, I headed out each day like a fisherman, downtown and through the neighborhoods, and I snagged some really nice paintings.<br />
I can look at each painting now and feel the sun on my neck or remember digging for parking meter change or think about the great people I met and know that each day something was accomplished.<br />
It's a great experience every time I go out. I now have paintings of familiar old trees that are no longer there and houses and buildings that are gone or changed.<br />
I set up a Shopify store to sell my watercolors, it's <a href="http://downtownpainter.com/">downtownpainter.com</a><br />
Thanks for sharing the trip with me!<br />

Tyler has about 15 miles of red brick streets constructed in the 1930s and 1940s and I get to enjoy them every day.<br />
Many beautiful churches, houses and public buildings are framed by the brick streets which make a pleasing, colorful foundation for my sketches and paintings.<br />
I've uploaded several images of my paintings, I hope you enjoy them.<br />

Next I begin painting on the characters and details. After bringing the water color work to a fairly finished state I begin the inking with either a very fine pen nib dipped in ink or a fine point artist pen with permanent ink, or even the beloved "Sharpie".</span></span></span></div>

Ray Bradbury's stories gave me an extra excitement for life, like that first dose of crisp Autumn weather that makes everybody a little more alert, a little more ready to believe in ghosts and fairies!<br />
His words were like paint, right out of the tube. His ideas gave me ideas and it all seemed right!<br />
<br />
Several years ago I was compelled to make paintings and drawings inspired by his book <a href="http://www.amazon.com/The-Halloween-Tree-Ray-Bradbury/dp/0375803017" target="_blank">THE HALLOWEEN TREE</a> and the <a href="http://www.amazon.com/The-Halloween-Tree-1993/dp/B00936A12O" target="_blank">Hanna-Barbera "The Halloween Tree"</a> production. I sold the paintings and prints of them online and eventually sent some of the prints to Ray after finding his address on a piece of stationery published in a book about him. Weeks later I happened to check the spam file of my mail and there was a peculiar email, it was from Ray! He thanked me for the prints, complimented my work and said it was good that I had sent them to him, that they helped him realize his ideas were moving in the world.<br />
<br />
The Halloween Trees and haunted houses I painted introduced me to other Ray Bradbury fans who became friends, most especially my dear friend <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Gregory-Miller/e/B002RH1R8I" target="_blank">Gregory Miller</a> who was a close friend and disciple of Ray's. Since our meeting I have illustrated 5 books for Greg, the first, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Scaring-Crows-Tales-Noon-Midnight-ebook/dp/B00I6MCPZW/ref=asap_bc?ie=UTF8" target="_blank">SCARING THE CROWS</a>, is dedicated to Ray. Another friend I gained through the Halloween Tree paintings facilitated an exchange where I signed more of my prints to Ray and Ray signed some of my prints to me and also, over time, sent me signed books!<br />
<br />
I never actually met Ray but sent him scans of hand made cards on his birthdays and Halloween<br />
and friends through his website and his daughter would see that he received the images.<br />
<br />
Greg called me on June 5th, 2012 and told me Ray had passed away... many of us stopped breathing and I still haven't found a replacement for the only person who was on my list of "People I'd Like To Meet". The wonderful thing that remains is the friends I made through Ray!<br />

Sometimes I like to take a large piece of illustration board and fill it with many images then cut the board up into smaller drawings and paintings.<br />
I have a hard time letting the large board go! The 20 x 30 inch piece looks so cool populated with the originals, like some unique wrapping paper with no repeating image.<br />

The board on the left is full of Autumn and Halloween images, below that is a picture of several drawings in progress on a pad of drawing paper.<br />
The last images are single pictures cut out and featured in my <a href="http://stores.ebay.com/karlorff/Originals-/_i.html?_fsub=2" target="_blank">eBay store</a> .<br />

<br />
Yes, we are finally returning to "Witch Castle" and here is the complete record so far, for your enlightenment and for mine. <div>
King Bronty and Prince Podoee finally left the pirates of the "Scurvy Shark" and took off in their little boat, the "Dino Flyer" with a promise to their father to be careful.</div>
<div>
Today I have collected that story so far to bring us all up to date!</div>

<b style="color: #134f5c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px; line-height: 18.48px;">I hope you enjoy this blog. I truly enjoy making "King Bronty"! "King Bronty" is drawn on paper then transferred to bristol board using tracing paper and a carbon-like paper. The transferred drawing is then inked in black lines with either ink and a brush or a brush pen or a Sharpie marker. </b><br />

<b style="color: #134f5c; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px; line-height: 18.48px; text-align: start;">Next, I use combinations of Crayola Markers, Pitt Artist's Markers, Prismacolor Markers, gouache paint and colored pencils. Then, of course, I scan each page, re-size it and post the strip for you to enjoy! </b></div>

As you may have noticed by the Google banner today, this would be the 388th birthday of Charles Perrault who deserves much of the notice for creating the fairy tale genre as we know it.<br />
Artists, like me, owe much to the author of CINDERELLA, PUSS IN BOOTS, THE SLEEPING BEAUTY and LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD, stories I grew up with, never imagining a world without them.<br />
The great book illustrators of the 19th and 20th century created many iconic images inspired by Perrault that, frankly, inspired many artists to become illustrators. Edmund Dulac, Arthur Rackham, Jessie Willcox Smith, Walter Crane are a few of the illustrators I think about who created famous pictures from Perrault's stories.<br />
