#unmade - report 9 (81-90)

February 1, 2017 marked the beginning of a year long painting / internet art project titled #unmade.

For #unmade, I am posting, via Twitter, 100 titles for 100 unrealised paintings over the course of 2017. A painting (most likely as an acrylic and ink on canvas) is available for each title. Each #unmade painting is priced at $100. To commission a painting, a person may contact me (DM via Twitter) the day the title is posted. If no one commissions the title on the the day of the post (midnight EST), the painting will remain unmade.

The ninth set of 10 tiles (#81-90) has generated 0 commissioned paintings with 9 likes and 0 retweets. During the ninth set, the @mriver twitter account lost 1 follower for the current total of 291. Of the 9 new likes for titles #81-90, 77% are from MTAA member emeritus @twhid

90 titles done with 0 paintings made. I’d plan on wrapping up #unmade by posting the final 10 titles before January 1, 2018. At this point, the only painting genera #unmade still needs to cover is self-portrait. So, from here to the end, it’s all about self as if this was not the case from the start.As we know from art history, self can be divided neatley into two types: Self Portrait As and Self Portrait With. I think I will start with With.

Also, just to note, with only a few Sundays and Mondays left before the end of the year and 10 titles to go, I will need to add a few random posting times. permanent link to this post
