Amb el calor que fa hui, cal buscar l'ombra i... ... donar-se un bon capbusso. (il·lustració de Monika Wiloga)

Jing Jin (Shanghai, China) - From Dear Little Squares Part II, 2014 Drawings: Watercolors, Ink, Pencils

Igor, 26

Just a quick sketch, I'm too busy. *Based on a photograph I can't find now. Tell me if you know.

Frenchman Lou Ros is self-taught and he used to tag walls. You can see both in his work. He didn’t learn the academic tradition and then proceed to tear it down. He works from photographs; he wants to paint stills from films. Photographs and still shots capture moments in flux. That’s what Ros does. He paints until he finds the feeling he seeks or else discovers. Then he finishes. It doesn’t matter whether the work itself is academically done. What matters is that he’s done. He works rapidly, in short bursts of energy. That’s the tagger’s MO. In and out, say what you have to say, clear and simple, before the flics arrive.

Love the stark simplicity of his works. I especially love the last work- with just enough details to convey atmosphere and form. View more of his works on his Tumblr.
