biy (Blake It Yourself)

with 4 comments

Two phrases any contemporary artist is apt to hear are “That costs how much?” and “Hell, anyone could do that!” and what the hey, sometimes it’s true. There’s a lot of art out there I’d love to own, but can’t afford, and I have a lot of friends who can’t afford to buy my work. So here’s my solution: once a month I’ll give you step by step instructions for a piece that I have specially designed for this website. You can make your very own Nayland Blake, with a certificate of authenticity. I’ll try to keep the material costs low, the skill level easy and once you’ve got your finished piece, you can send me a picture of the results and I’ll post it here for the world to see.

  2. I have always liked your work, but I also feel as though the gauntlet has been thrown. Let the games begin!

  4. Hi Nayland…this does sound fun and I have to admit that at one time part of me was hoping that you would do this the whole time…
