Currently under reconstruction, Ask Maurice.Org is returning from a previous technical setback.
The original text from the old site is being converted to a book. The Painters Blog is for the artist’s Works In Progress, examples of technique and for experimental documentation. Do you have an active or special interest in painting? Feel free to offer any suggestions what would be beneficial to the public. You can personally contact Maurice via email with any inquiries you may have. All intellectual contributions are welcome. For guidance with your projects or to offer suggestions, you can also interact within this blog (after creating a user account) to discuss “painting” topics with other artists. Please, utilize this resource constructively and of course return frequently for future interest…
Maurice Garson, AKA Britt Garrison, has been a USA Multimedia Artist for over fifty years. He has worked with most common and mixed mediums. . He grew up during the fifties and the sixties and began exploring the world of art at a very early age. He intentionally works in contrast with new procedures. While experimenting with modern methods with both old and new materials, he struggles to preserve the traditional or ancient methods of art. It has become aware that some ancient painting processes (deserving of more reverence) may become driven to extinction if these resources remain unavailable to anyone with sincere interest. Thus, was born “Ask Maurice- An Artist Reference to Painting” in 1996.
“Absolutely nothing is gained from an inhibited expression.” – Maurice Garson
