jesse reno paints 2010
this video documents jesse reno's painting process, as he works on 4 paintings simutaniously from start to finish. one of the paintings becomes collaged into one of the others so he ends with 3 finished pieces. the idea was to document jesse's process as pure and true to form as possible. jumping from one piece to another and back again as the impulses and urges push and pull him. painting over layer after layer as he searches for just the right feeling, composition, meaning, and colors he needs to see to call a painting finished. through out the video there are still shots that hold every so often to help the viewer better see each piece in its entirety durring its process. this should help you the viewer keep track of whats going on.. good luck..you might need to see it twice to fully understand it..
the video was shot over the course of 4 days, in the course of aproximatly 36 hrs. it was all shot as a series of still photographs adding up to approximatly 30,000 photos. wisa kuuttila shot all the photos and assembled them into the animation. jesse composed, recorded, and produced all the music.

I was in Singapore a couple of days ago browsing around in a bookshop at the art section of the magazines and found a profile article about Jesse Reno in the nov/dec issue of Somerset Studio. He is featured on a 5 page spread and with 10 of his paintings. I hadn't heard of him before but loved the work in the magazine. When I got home I went to his website www.jessereno.com and found the video. I had to take a break after seeing about half of it because it was so overwhelming! Glad you guys liked it too!!

OMG! Wow, Wowie, WOWZA!!! This guy blows me away! So cool to see his entire process start to finish. Many times I thought he was done and then...he blasts back in and adds more. So courageous! Makes me want to push everything i've ever done so much further! I cannot WAIT to take his workshop at art & soul retreat.
I gotta go watch this again...

HERE ARE 2 LINKS to TWO of my youtube videos talking and demonstrating about this amazing product:

So once i have my image printed onto transparency film, I take my Ezscreen silk screen which has been coated in light sensitive emulsion (These sheets come pre-coated so they are ready to use). Place it onto a black board, then place the transparency image on top (this part needs to be done in a dark room with no direct sunlight). I take it outside and expose it for 1 minute and 40 seconds (but time varies depending on time of day and strength of sunlight). After i have exposed the image i place it into a tub of water for around 5 - 8 minutes. Then i rinse the screen out under fast running water until the unexposed area (the black) washes away. I then expose the screen to the sun for a further 20mins to completely harden the light sensitive emulsion.
And this is the completed screen ready for printing. I simply use an old credit card to spread the ink over the screen making sure i do one complete full stroke across the screen (holding the credit card at a 45 degree angle). I immediately wash the screen out under fast flowing water and pat dry. I use fabric screen printing ink which washes out in water (which makes the process easy).
I love this product, their website is http://ezscreenprint.com/ (for full instructions and details on how to purchase this awesome product).
