Out of all of my artists Robert Buelteman is one of my favourites, because I have never seen anything like his work before! Buelteman specialises in "electrography" which is a process of sending 80,000 volts through plants and flowers and then painting on top of the outcome to add colour. I especially love how bright the colours come out from using this exciting and new technique. Although I wouldn't be able to carry out something like this myself at school, his work has inspired me to be creative and think outside the box as well as look into using bright and powerful colours in my own art.
The electrography is amazing. You could reproduce something like this by taking snapshot pictures of glowsticks in the dark and wizz them round the place in a flower shape. Then merge them together on photoshop and paint the flower you were working from and somehow merge the two images. Just an idea.
