MichelAngelo▲ says:
Yes, petunia_rocks01, the central figure is twisted like you said. But my understanding of the classic contrapposto movement don't bend the torso like this. The true contrapposto it's a body with an accurate balance of limbs and anatomic angles with harmonized curves.

true ... however, this drawing is beautifully composed and balanced - let me correct myself and say, "Twisty"! :-) great job, miche!

What were you showing here?

MichelAngelo▲ says:
This is just a study for the child's movement. A close up of a sketch. The feet are studies for the child. The fingers at the botton are from the central figure of my last and most important work: the Resurrection. I stopped my art work in the middle 90's. Now I'm trying to show and expalin everything because I think my time is running out. Keep asking me questions, it's the only way to know what I have to improve in my next upload. Thanks, aongarcia.

aongarcia says:
I hope you do not mean that too literally "my time is running out." How old are you? I'm 69 yrs old and I'm pretty aware of that time clock, too. You're one wonderful artist, really amazing, and so complex. Your work gives great tribute to God.

MichelAngelo▲ says:
Thanks for your words, aongarcia. Let me try to explain myself:
I'm 48 yrs old. Beyond the chronological events there is a psychic time.
Since I chose the art as the way to discover who I really am, my life became painful, weird and haunted by visions. Visions of a future. Sometimes I find in my routine tasks details showing that part of it already happened and the rest are projecting their shadow. I can't predict exactly what or when, but my visions always comes true.

Hi Lambrini
This a small clay model. The sculpture size is about 65x60x60 cm (26x24x24 inches). I don't have money and a place to make it in large size. Soon will put a donate button on my Flickr page and ask people to help me to create The Resurrection (a huge sculpture project).
All my art work are from the 90's. I'm looking for an art institution, or a person, to keep it all. I hope that someone in the US or Italy will get interested.

Thank you, Lorena Mocelin

Thanx, duccesco

ChiaNi says:
You draw all these with imagnation not know who was Michel Angelo yet? right?
Posted 5 weeks ago. ( permalink | delete )

MichelAngelo▲ says:
The Michelangelo's art showed up among my drawings in 1981. At the end of that year I already knew who he was. But I didn't have any interest on art or his work (See Set 1981). I was a surfer and a surfboard shaper. In february of 1983, after the devastating experience of the remembering of Vittoria Colonna's death, I discovered that me and Michelangelo are the same person. But I decided to find a tridimensional proof of that identity (See my Profile and the Set Icarus - Geometric Structure) because I needed to solve my mental confusion. At that point of my life, I forbid myself to see any image of my past just to see what I would draw and verify everything later. Read my descriptions to see how The Resurrection's composition was done.
In 1991, I finished my personal search and compared everything that I have done with the art work of my past life.
The conclusion: I never did a single drawing with a theme out of my natural art. Everytime that I tried to do so the result was horrible. In 2008, after 25 years of misunderstandings, I decided to assume my secret identity.
And that's all.
All my drawings are made by imagination.

ChiaNi, if you think it's possible to someone to sculpt an image like my Apollo just studying Michelangelo's work give me an example. I spent my whole life to see if anyone else can create human figures by imagination like I do. I really want to discover that.

ChiaNi says:
Michelangelo. I remenber your story. I am not good at timeing. I forgot the year . So all the scketch you do without looking at your pass time drawing. All these amzing line and shape come from your free mind it that right?
Posted 5 weeks ago. ( permalink | delete )

MichelAngelo▲ says:
ChiaNi,
Sometimes I look to the white surface of the paper and I see an almost complete image of a body. This kind of vision happened with the central figure of the Resurrection. I didn't have to correct a thing later. But there's a lot of images that were created through a long process of development. I don't know to explain how or why I work this way.
If you look carefuly you will notice that at this stage of The Resurrection, the bodies all look the same but in a different position. Only when I go deep into the drawing of a figure I start to work on its proportions etc.
I'm doing everything to expose my way of working. Sometimes I upload the roughest sketch just because it reveals a lot about my identity.
The problem is that I have a huge number of sketchs waiting to be uploaded.

ChiaNi says:
Can't wait to see. I hope you got time to up load. how about surfering now? still doing it? have you find your Vittoria Colonna yet? She turely a beauty. Smart , fun, knowligeable. not easy at that time a women like the why she was.
Posted 5 weeks ago. ( permalink | delete )

MichelAngelo▲ says:
Yes, I restarted with Surf in 2000. But my life never went well since the end of my personal search in 1994. Telling my story is a spiritual duty from now on to me.
About Vittoria Colonna, I don't even know who and where is she. I know that my entire life is an effort the take her with me at the end of my time in this Humanity, at some time after my death. Probably she is next to me.
There are only three prophetic dreams from 1983 left to become reality. In the last scene of the last dream, Vittoria Colonna discover herself when she see her hands with the dirty of my blood. It's impossible to understand the meaning of this image until it happens.
Posted 5 weeks ago. ( permalink | delete | edit )

MichelAngelo▲ says:
ChiaNi, I'm not in a search to find who is Vittoria Colonna. It's impossible to know such thing. I suppose that she will be with me at my last day. I'm not hurting anyone with this personal story. This visions are beyond my free will. I'm living my life from now on as my inner visions always told me to do, telling everyone my story and signing my name: Michelangelo.
