Sassun Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 IMO some of his stuff is good , but his works are almost too similar to each other... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sassun Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 (edited) Though I have painted the above painting. It is one of his best pieces IMO. Edited June 3, 2007 by Sassun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zartonk Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 I worship Saryan. Two of my favorites: http://c.anouchian.free.fr/saryan4.jpg http://www.menk-online.ch/Pages/archiv2001/menk36_front.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sassun Posted June 3, 2007 Report Share Posted June 3, 2007 (edited) Zartonk , the 2nd one is really nice . Most of the rest I do not like, however... I think it's because his colors are too monotone , which is not the case in the above 2nd pic... Worship ? uhmm ...

Sassun Posted June 5, 2007 Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 my own reproduction of Sarian . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arvestaked Posted June 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 (edited) Weird. I replied to this topic already. What I said was: I use oil, acrylic, wax, wood and canvas. I refuse to post images of my work on the internet, at least until I have an exhibition and a website (in that order), which may never happen. re: the reproduction: Well done. It must be nice having a Sarian painting on your wall. Edited June 6, 2007 by Arvestaked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not really hung the Sarian piece on the wall , I prefer the Minas Avedissian pieces i have reproduced , and of course Vermeer & Van Gogh !!! Our house is kind of like an exhibition lol !!!! One day I will be able to reproduce Canaletto paintings !!! And then I can do some stuff of my own , i guess ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then again if you're fairly accurate with Vermeer reproduction I don't see what will stop you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arvestaked Posted June 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 ...I don't see what will stop you. Well, other than the amount of time you'd have to spend on a painting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sassun Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 This is my Vermeer piece. I know , my colors are just wrong , I did a reproduction based on what my computer showed me !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anoushik Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 Zartonk The Niqab is not a necessity in Islam. And the rest , why would anyone want to see specifically a woman's hair , legs , neck ???? That's for after marriage. How come Muslim men don't cover their hair and neck? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sassun Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 Well, other than the amount of time you'd have to spend on a painting. Yeah, true... Though the time I spent on Vermeer could equal the time I would spend on Canaletto. Ok, maybe a bit less , because Canaletto paintings are just a pain to reproduce !!! Man , Canaletto is a genius... and also Caravaggio !!!! Sometimes I wish I were them . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arvestaked Posted June 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 Congratulations on the Vermeer. It's very nice. You should make an effort to see the paintings you reproduce so you can see the texture and the technique. It's very hard to see that on a screen.

By going to art museums ? I have Canaletto & Carvaggio painting collection books , that's the closest to 'real life' i can get !! Anyway...

Arvestaked Posted June 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 Well, I guess if you're in Lebanon it would be difficult. Books are better than internet though because you're guaranteed professional photos and they almost always include images of details in the paintings.

It must be nice having a Sarian painting on your wall. If you show yours I'll show mine. I now only use acrylic for the under paintings, water mixable oil does the trick. You should try egg tempera, that thing gives really amazing effects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azat Posted June 8, 2007 Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 I wish I had an artistic bone in my boddy. Arvestaked I have a feeling your works are of excelent quality.(dont know why I have that feeling) I would love to come to your exsiit if you ever have one. In general I am not a big fan of works that are copies of works. But I think it takes talent to do what you have done Sassun jan. Nice job i too love Saryan. the second painting is amazing. Caravaggio is top 5 for me. So is Vermeer(i went to DC few years back just to see his works at a traveling show that was in the National Gallery). Others that I love include Valasquez, Goya, Dali, Rembrand, Kendinski, Kramskoy, Manet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sassun Posted June 8, 2007 Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 Thanks Azat, I know that many are not big fans of reproduction/copying... for me it's just a practice in self-confidence I guess... until I can take the next step. Plus , it's nice to hang on the walls of the house the stuff that you have worked on rather than just bought from some place. And cheaper too. Dali is fantastic.

ED Posted June 9, 2007 Report Share Posted June 9, 2007 Salvador Dali - The burning Giraffe !!! Dali is such a pervert. i cant express why but I'm a big worshiper of Dali, after constant bumbardment to my brother (he always wondered why i love Dali) now he to loves his works most of Dali's collections are prohibited in US due to "not able to understand" them and classified as sadistic in nature.
