amy shackleton - drip paints

"Twenty-five year old, Toronto-based artist Amy Shackleton paints these lusciously drippy paintings without use of a brush or fingers, instead she relies on good old gravity (and occasionally string as a guide) to move the paint slowly across the canvas in delicately controlled pours. The video...captures the somewhat tedious yet brilliant process in detail, as a 30-hour painting session condensed into two minutes".  Watch the video first!

  3. This is true art in its most creative form. The fact that it take so long to create makes it even more special.
    Thank you for sharing!
