Can we really paint like this?

This was a painting experiment that was organized for my final painting project. It is one of the works that I will be presenting which answers the following question: "How can different ways of applying paint stimulate or bring out emotions of the painter?"

Three of my friends were open to participating in this experiment that I really had no idea how it'd turn out. We had fun experimenting and playing with different ways to apply paint.

Again, I am not saying that the final painting is ART. The title of this video is, "Can we really paint like this?" Does art have a definition? I'm not sure, but as a person studying art, I think there's something interesting about the aspect of this painting being done. not the result, but the process of how these non-art majors are using paint in any way they want to. Just having fun without intending to make anything of it. Without trying to create meaning, or beauty out of it. I think it's interesting to think about. The question for this experiment is, did this bring out the emotions of the painter? heck yes it did. and what about it, how, and why? That'd be a long discussion, but I think that's a good start to leave you at. I don't even know all the answers.

esto no es arte, es arte tiene mucho significado, es un lenguaje plástico. Es historia y cultura, como artista que soy, os habéis reído de nuestro trabajo, esto es ridículo, que vergüenza

@graticolful Soy artista mismo, pero como dije antes, éste está sobre el proceso de hacer esta pintura, NO sobre el resultado final del experimento. No se ofenda por favor, arte no tiene realmente una definición definida.y creo que esta interacción y proceso apenas de lanzar la pintura podría ser visto como parte de arte. Una vez más esto era un experimento y espero que usted continúe su viaje del arte en

how have you managed to fill the balloons with paint? what I might say, please?

[racheO81O]

@latainaa Just squeeze the paint into an empty balloon(the water balloon kind) and then fill it up with water! very simple :)

looks like fun.how do you know when the painting is done?

[racheO81O]

@gswARTzART the truth is you dont. We "painted" until the supplies were gone. this experiment has a focus on the emotion behind the participants and the interactive part of it. The outcome of the painting is not important(as you can see, some people hate the outcome of this- but they all have missed the point of this experiment). As someone suggested, the value of painting could've been interesting if there was a focus for the painting on the ground- but that was not in original plan, sadly.

for all of you saying this art is boring or not good... did you watch the video?!?!?! Did you see how much fun they were having? who cares?

[littledot21]

How did you fill the balloons up with water and paint? I'm struggling to fill mine up!

[Onemetalicgirl]

I think this was incredible. And what's more is I feel, from personal experience, that this could be an excellent anger management technique. Thanks for sharing. =D
