Page 335 - YGARTUA : The Work Of A Genius
P. 335
THE COMPLEXITY AND DIVERSITY OF YGARTUA’S CREATIONS ARE
A TESTAMENT TO HIS GENIUS, CONSEQUENTLY THIS IS PRECISELY
REFLECTED IN HIS MASTERY AND DIVERSITY OF TECHNIQUES
WHICH IS ASTONISHING. HIS INDOMITABLE SPIRIT AND FERVOUR
MOTIVATES HIM TO CHANGE COURSE, MOVING FROM ONE STYLE
TO THE NEXT IMPATIENT AND IMPULSIVE.
HE DOES NOT PAINT FOR POSTERITY, HE IS UNCONCERNED ABOUT
EVENTUAL HOMOGENEITY IN HIS ARTISTIC PRODUCTION.
YET, UPON STUDYING HIS WORK, IT SEEMS THAT THERE IS A
GUIDING PRINCIPLE THAT IS PREDOMINANT IN ALL HIS CREATIONS,
THE SAME MASTERY OF TECHNIQUE, THE SAME PRESENCE OF
COLOUR, AND AN ABSURD SPONTANEITY.
HE EXECUTES A MONUMENTAL MURAL IN DAYS, WITH NO
ASSISTANCE, NO PROJECTOR, JUST HIS BRUSH IT IS REMARKABLE.
HIS CANVASES ARE ALL PAINTED IN ONE OR TWO HOURS, THE
LARGER THEY ARE THE MORE EXHILARATING THE EXECUTION,
THERE IS NO PROCRASTINATION UPON CREATING, REGARDLESS
WHETHER IT IS AN ABSTRACT OR SUPER REALISM.
