Mad Art

Ushio Shinohara

BOXING PAINTINGS
Thats right, this guy uses boxing gloves instead of brushes

Oh and he's 80 years old

Looks kinda fun...Might try it myself one day.
It must be a great stress reliever, get rid of any of that pent-up anger your storing!







Here's his official website so you can explore even more

And a vid of Shinohara in action!





NEXT, Melbourne based artist

Ash Keating

Uses fire extinguishers to spray his paint high onto giant walls,
and throws buckets around too!




Definitely check out this article and video of Keating at work

and THEN theres Damien Hirst

My favourite pieces of his are the Spin Paintings, where paint was poured onto spinning canvases




Beautiful nirvana ryuu painting, 2007



Beautiful Zeus Maia Freya Isis Meditative Hysterical Sensory-Deprived Dream Painting, 2007

His Jewelled Skull is pretty cool too.


But don't get me started on his animal art....

  1. can you please remove the spin art painting, it's actually mine and you are providing a high res image that others can download and use without my permission.
