Posts Tagged ‘Light Painting’

When I contacted Darren of DariusTwin to do an interview for CarmineMag.com (which you can read here) I just had to ask him to do a tutorial for us. Light painting is a very interesting medium. It looks amazing and impressive, but it’s also essentially an easy medium to try for yourself. Darren was kind enough to put together this 2 minute tutorial video for us on the subject. Please check out the video, grab yourself some flashlights, make some pictures and send them our way!

CM: Were you formally trained in art or self taught? Do you think it has helped you or hindered you?
DT: I am self-taught with some formal inspiration. In my experience, it’s both helped and hindered me depending on what I was trying to do.. In a graphic sense it has helped bc growing up I saw a lot of skateboarding, surf and street art and that’s what I tried to create for a while.. it got me work. However, I see artists on display in places like the MOCA and MET and would like to start presenting my art on a much larger scale. I’m sure formal training wouldn’t hurt in that field.
